I would suggest you to spend about extra 30 mins (or at least 30 minutes.... it depends on how much you want to do) on maths per day (not including your homework) and during this 30 mins try those challenging questions from Fitzpatrick or Cambridge. (But I think if you really want to give...

really? but I think past papers would be the BEST!! BTW, I've posted up all the links for the past papers for Chem, Physics and Bio, Ext.1 & 2 maths in the Bio section that you've just posted a questions. Here you go: DOt point Biology? Enjoy!! (that might keep you busy for a while :p...

There's some (but mostly Ext.1 & 2 maths), there's also loads of Chemistry and Physics papers There you go!! http://community.boredofstudies.org/851/general-discussion-2010-hsc/234250/free-past-papers-past-papers-only-no-spam.html...

Did you have a look on the resource section on BOS?

haha, thanks!! Yeah, if you think it's very time consuming etc, then it's better to drop it then struggling + loads of worrying. It won't help with lifting your HSC marks. :(

I would be much better if you drop it. Since you're struggling at the moment. =S But the decision is up to you whether to drop it or not. If it's getting too hard and you're really struggling with it, I would suggest you to drop it. :( Edit: doing a subjects that you like is much better than...

Hey Anna, I've never been into a study group before, but is it more beneficial than studying off by yourself?

Get both!! :) I've replied your other thread in the Biology section, you're doing 3 sciences so it would probably be the same!! :) DOt point Biology? Good luck with studying!!

Edit: As it as been mentioned above from Brontecat, it is also useful to spilt 2-3 papers (after you have done them) into topics, that way, you can know where's your strength and weaknesses. :) There's a book called Creelman Biology past paper book, it's sorted out for you already with a few...

i find them very useful in both ways, but I will understand the concepts and written my notes first and I'll do the questions in the book. Get both Success One and Dot Point. They're both extremely useful. Dot point will give some extra info and revisions of the topics and then you move on to...

We have no idea mate..... the government/ the department of education wants to change them.... :uhhuh: I think they're basically the same, only changed the name and the highest score becomes 99.95 not 100. But IMO, I would prefer UAI cuz it sound nicer. LOL :lol:

i used both Jacaranda and Conquering Chem (with the Dot Point series as supplement), I would say in terms of theory Conquering is the better, but jacaranda has more extra infos especially for the pracs. =)

For our school, our maths teachers will show us our ranking since year 7, for the rest of the subjects, the teachers will tell you your ranks in the parents-teachers interview or you have to chase the teachers to get your rankings.

Read this thread. How to maximise your maths examination marks: Tips from the HSC Examiners always read the questions carefully and don't rush, always leave times to check your work. And RELAX!! =) This thread is also very helpful...

Even though General scales very badly but there's still chances of getting a Band 6 if you worked extremely hard!!

It's always a good idea to study with a group of people however, this does not really happen in our school, people are just not willing to share the information around. I really like to study in groups..... but I think I have to study off by myself now. =S

For these topics, I think by doing the exercises from the Cambridge or Fitzpatrick one may help. But if you really want those copies of past papers, I would suggest you to ask your teacher about it. =)

I'm in the similar situation too..... :(

Hey GUSSSSSSS, thanks for the help yesterday, I'm glad that I did OKAY in the test. =)

you're doing Bio and Modern!!!! we doing the same subjects!!!! for Modern, we're doing the JFK thing, I've got Mr Watt, he's very good but..... just "the finger" bit. LOL But i love the topics (half of the topics). I don't really like the Vietnam War that much. I felt sorry for the soldiers who...
