What helped me was to write down dot points of what I wanted to say. Keep it simple and personal. Make it about the school and not you (it sounds kinda tacky and almost prideful if you only talk about yourself- maybe briefly mention things that you do around the school community). Also the...

Bro with that girl, if you said she has distanced herself then maybe tell her that you've noticed. Like ask her fr "I've noticed that you've kinda been distanced, is everything okay?" Being emotionally aware and noticing small things like that is honestly pretty attractive in a guy (for me at...

Yeah I think that should be enough. I am memorizing 4 artists plus an artwork for each. I also am memorizing other content such as movies which are appropriation or based off an artwork (e.g. Loving Vincent- I really recommend for Van Gogh) or are just considered art (e.g. Parasite)

I definitely know what you mean about mental health issues and suicide. I have had very close people in my life die because they felt their life amounted to nothing and there was no other option. These various losses really affected our family, to a point where my mom decided to become a...

Okay, I understand what you are going through. I struggled with tons of stress, not knowing what I wanted to do and just general burn out. Which, btw, is completely normal (which still doesn't make it any better though). The good thing is, that you are only young and just finishing school. No...

Yeah, I have only gotten one offer but people other people in my year group have gotten tons with minimal effort. For me though, is that I didn't apply to many Unis that offer early entry, which might be the same for you. But don't give up hope, you'll get offers, even if they are after ATARS...

It's readable if you take the time. Better pray that you get a marker that is in a good mood

Hey! CAFS is this Friday, and I am actually really excited to do it and finish. I for one really enjoy CAFS and I did well in my trial so I am not too stressed thankfully (whish I could've said the same for maths)! If anyone has any predictions or thoughts, it would be great to hear them! I...

those emus and lizards can go take a long walk off a short pier. I don't care how many legs they have

Hi! So yeah I am in Ancient and I just want to see what everyone else is thinking for the exam. I am pretty average at it, but I would like to try and do a bit better, so if anyone has any tips for writing or important things to remember, that would be great. (Also we have studied Pompeii and...

Just looking forward to everything that I can do after the HSC, like moving to the beach, catching up on all the shows/movies I've missed, sewing, drawing, etc

Honestly, the amount of people who have told me that the atar doesn't matter greatly surpasses the 2 people that say it does. I am too trying to aim for a good atar (not as big as 90+). Sure the atar matters if you plan on going to Uni next year, but even then there are plenty of other pathways...

I have heard it's pretty normal (btw, good job as well!). Unfortunately I wasn't given this opportunity because I applied for universities that don't offer early entry. I would just recommend that you still study, even if it is not a lot. Remember, in a couple of months you could completely...

Just something simple but will sentimental value. For my English teacher, I got her a mug that says "Talk Darcy to Me" (Pride and Prejudice, which she loves) For my Ancient History teacher, I also got him a mug but with a Roman emperor statue with a list of all the Roman emperors For my CAFS...

I am focusing on themes as my human experiences, as my teacher has explained: 1. Fear (easiest one to write about). Fear is the catalyst for all the events of the Crucible (e.g. Abigail fears that she will lose Proctor, the girls are afraid they will be discovered for using witchcraft...

Yeah I think if our year group had a similar year with celebrations before exams, we would've had a lot of fun and make memories. But because we had the remainder of our proper schooling online at home all of the normal times for our celebrations were pushed back. We are still planning on having...

Yeah I could but I am school captain so it probably wouldn't be good

So recently our year group has had a falling out over year 12 graduations stuff and I am at a point where I just want to finish school without any celebrations. It doesn't help that Covid really affected all of our normal celebrations. There is nothing I can really do about it but I am worried...

Same problem here. Sometimes I want to just slap my lazy classmates into tomorrow but unfortunately I can't. The only thing I would say is to focus on you and your studies. Trust me when I say this, but the system is dumb. So many people say that once they graduated, the HSC and ATAR were...

Yes a week left! I honestly can't wait to be done. I am ready to move onto the next stage of life and not feel weighed down by study! If some of you are stressing, here are some ideas to make you feel better and study to your liking: 1. Listen to calm music, but that is taste! It's honestly...
