    I didn't do that much more in year 12 than in year 11 3-4 hours in both years after school every day During exam season sometimes I'd be working super late if I felt I was behind - 6+ hours (but rarely) When not in exam season I would still aim for 3-4 hours but if I got 2 hours of work done it...

    Shorts I struggled for a while but best advice is that you're showing the marker you understand the text. I got 20/20 shorts in HSC with this approach - focusing less on the techniques and more on showing I understand what's actually happening in the text, especially for poetry

    No tutoring for maths. I learned ahead during summer holidays but in the 2 week holidays I was only doing catch up as I had no time to go ahead. In the long holiday I was studying as soon as school finished, took about a week break over Christmas and then started again. In my school I had 3...
