[beanbug]

I haven't studied during the holidays once during year 12, which ik is terrible lol. Obv with HSC coming up in term 4, i need to study during these holidays. How do people manage to balance work, family/friends and study during the holidays? I feel like time just slips away from me some days hahaha

Im in yr 10 n im like u i dont study but thats cus i have nothing to study lol
anyways u should create a timetable (eg for an hour from 10-11am ill study module 5 from chemistry then from 11:05-12:05pm ill do adv math) like ykwim?
theres this website called promodoro where it gives u 25 min work n 5 min break to help u balance instead of studying all the time

Pomofocus

A simple Pomodoro Timer app that works on a desktop & mobile browser. Pomofucus will help you manage your time and let you focus on any tasks such as study, writing, or coding.

then in that 5min break u can text ur friends, have a break, eat or hang out w ur family anything rlly

another thing a lot of ppl find useful is online study sessions w strangers (?) cus u dont know them makes u less likely to want to spill tea n cus they’re studying u‘ll be motivated (ik for sure i wont be opening w strangers but its personal preferences!)
or maybe open w ur friends?

create notes NOW! Bc then u’ll have time to study those notes instead of writing them uk? Makes it MUCH easier

n yh thats all i have Sorry if its not much lol

Don't track time, track progress
Divide the number of past papers you need to do by the number of days before the hsc
After fulfilling that daily quota, you can spend your time doing other things
