Hey guys,
My name is Mia, I finished the HSC in 2019 and with a 99.00 ATAR and received the Premier's Award for All-round Excellence + the Honour Roll. I'm currently in my 3rd year of Medicine.
I thought I'd reach out to your cohort because one of my biggest regrets in year 11 and 12 was wasting all of my holiday time perfecting my summaries so I thought I'd offer my notes because of all the time I spent on them! I am without a doubt a perfectionist so I used as many different sources as possible including several textbooks, study guides, ATAR note books, HSC sample answers and other high-performing students' notes.
My subjects were English Advanced (95 HSC mark), Biology (94 HSC mark), Business Studies (94 HSC mark), and PDH (95 HSC mark). ALL NOTES ARE FOR THE NEW SYLLABUS
For year 12 internals and externals, I was ranked 1st in the year for business studies and 2nd in both biology and PDHPE. I was also ranked 4th for Advanced Maths and 10th for English in the year.
If I learned anything during year 12 it would be the importance of well-structured, detailed notes that are highly condensed at the same time. As a student that wanted to achieve highly, the only thing that would ease my stress about assessments was knowing that my summaries taught me every detail I needed to get full marks in short answers and extended responses. Also, leading up to trials and the HSC I was very overwhelmed by the amount of content I needed to learn so I found it equally important that my notes consisted of only the information I needed to know and not repetitive/ waffly information that wasn't relevant (This took months and months to add information and cut down- including the months leading up to the actual HSC exams). Now, despite this being incredibly important for success in the HSC, I would not recommend to anyone to do what I did and spend as much time as I did, which is why I'm offering my notes
(NOTE- most notes I saw during year 12 and even now looking through posts on this site boast about having 100 pages + which is exactly why I want to offer my notes as this is the opposite of what I found helpful during year 12- the HSC is so incredibly content heavy and more than anything, time-pressured so 100 pages is a waste of your brain space!!!)
My study notes are all formatted by syllabus points with clear and concise structure w/ all key headings and colour coding to make for an easy revision session. The content is all very detailed with key examples, facts and definitions so that it has everything you need to know and nothing more. The purpose of this was to ease the stress leading up to exams and save a lot of time so that I could revise all content I needed efficiently and effectively!
I prefer to make things simple and sell my notes as a whole- my Biology, Business and PDHPE notes are $35 each, I do a discount of 2 for $65 and 3 for $95 ($10 off). For PDH, my options were Sports Medicine and Improving Performance.
For English, my texts were The Merchant of Venice (Common mod), Donne and Wit (Mod A), An Artist of the Floating World (Mod B), Metamorphosis and The Spotty-handed Villainesses (Mod C) and I have essays (assignment marked 18/20 + practices), really detailed essay plans w/ breakdowns of the rubric and paragraph analysis which I sell for $15 each module, $10 for essay
)
I have attached my results table and proof of ATAR as well as a sample of my Business notes for an idea of my structure/ format. Just private message me and ill send through free samples and answer any questions!
Thanks!
Mia

Maybe because i was least confident in it so spent a lot of time on it?
