This may be useful for you later on down the track, but when it comes to formulas for chemistry (even physics for that matter, although they have a much more comprehensive formula sheet with many more formulas), have a separate notebook or set of notes for those. You don't want to have these...

It's interesting you mention that last point because for me, I found the study I did the morning of the exam (where I would normally get up really early to have a quick read of my notes) helped me with remembering key details or quotes. Also just getting used to writing before English so you are...

Definitely best to practice Paper 2 under timed conditions ... writing 3 essays can be very mentally draining and hurt your hand like anything, so just also make sure to practice that as well.

It still is early doors (still like another 27 games left), so plenty could change from now until the end, but what doesn't look like changing is the Top 3 (Chelsea, City, Liverpool). Even within them, it's so hard to tell who has a better chance of winning the title, because their strengths are...

Yh, it really doesn't make sense but if that's how he operates, then that's how he operates, I guess. If he isn't willing to accept money when releasing players, why would he be willing to spend money on new players, especially now they have Conte as their new manager, who's going to need a lot...

I'd say not having to write a reflection (like with last year's HSC) can definitely have its benefits as well. Some students may be unsure on how to write a reflection, or not be able to write anything of substance in 20-25 minutes (considering you also have a reflection as well). So 20 marks...

Cambridge for sure is what a lot of schools use and it's known for being one of the best. New Senior Maths is also another good textbook as well. The issue though is that when I do look up these books, unless you're unable to borrow them from the library, they're quite expensive (like 60 for a...

I'm pretty sure we offered him like 150 million or something stupid? I still don't get why any manager wouldn't take that sort of money. He legit could have built a new Tottenham team with that money, which he desperately needs to. Honestly, without Kane and Son, they'd be nowhere at the moment.

Honestly, I'd say the reasons people may not be feeling anxious is that they're just feeling too tired or over it to be feeling any sort of emotion. This year has definitely been the hardest year for any Year 12 cohort probably for ages, so it takes great perseverance and grit to be able to...

In 40 minutes, it really depends on your writing speed, but more importantly, the quality. Some people can write 900 quality words in an essay and are able to get their point across efficiently, whereas some people may write 1200 words but may be writing some 'waffle', which doesn't really add...

When I think about it, the analogy I thought of when watching City is that they're like a swarm of bees. As soon as a United player got the ball, there were 3 or 4 of them just swarming the player, meaning that most of the time, they had to pass it back, kick the ball out or just clear it up the...

One more tip with regards to wearing masks ... it may sound quite stupid and obvious, but breathe through your nose and not your mouth if you don't want to smell your own breath, which will automatically get worse throughout the day

For visual texts, a few common techniques you can use are salience (the part of the image which is prominent), framing, gaze (if there is a human in the picture), symbolism. For written texts, it really depends on the style of text (poem, essay, recount, description, etc) so they'll be many...

But for real, having watched the game yesterday, Man United couldn't even get out of their half for like most of the game. Literally everyone was behind the ball and even then, Man City were too good with their possession based game to get past them. Honestly, if it wasn't for De Gea, it should...

While time is definitely against you at this stage, for people who are thinking of memorising their essays for Paper 1 and 2, there's still plenty of techniques you can use which can help you remember them quickly. Active dictation (literally just say your essay out loud multiple times...

That definitely is a good idea, just to make sure you don't forget any of them. I'd probably write them in the booklet with the texts, as those will just be thrown away afterwards (they won't look at it).

I did McCann's "What time is it now where you are" last year and honestly, the biggest (and probably one of the only) themes in the poem is the contrast in setting. I believe one of the mothers is in war-torn Afghanistan, risking her life every day while protecting her home nation. On the other...

They probably won't make it that specific, just because when they are marking, it can be very hard when marking 70,000 papers to see if everyone has actually written from the perspective of a character from Module A.

I also think that's the reason why selective schools produce students who get the top HSC marks for an individual subject, despite having the toughest internal exams. At the end of the day, NESA has to equate the adjusted assessment marks with HSC marks. So for example, I went to a top 10...

Definitely could get you to write a specific style. But again, as last year's exam was purely imaginative writing, I'd be hoping that they allow you to choose the style of writing you want to go with. I think I can confidently say that most people are definitely most comfortable with...
