    Preliminary HSC Yearly Exams Thoughts & Results

    the teachers should really stop spoonfeeding us. it's cramping any possible style we may have, then it makes us dependent on them for every single thing. ew. vicious cycle. that said, it's only prelim and should a learning curve. autodidacticism ftw.
