Hey guys there is really no point in trying to organise ur holiday times now...the shc is still 10 months away and you will be given plenty of time to do that. just a few things i noticed with my hsc...
1) There WILL be days when someone has more than one exam on teh same day or two exams in a row...all through yr 12 i was unfortunate in having this but come the hsc i had a minimum of 2 days between exams and those of my friends who always had breaks had exmas day after the other...one of my friends had 3 exams in a 24 hr period
2) Things will come up during the year and u will need to wait for these b4 u plan any holidays these include school functions such as formal, graduation etc...
just somethign i saw in this thread just because school cert. starts on 9th novemeber DOES NOT necessarily mean hsc will be over by than. As seen by last yrs hsc and some b4 that there will be a brief break during the sc and the hsc will then continue afterwards.
Finally best of luck once again to all '07s and just take it easy dont stress too much i gave up stressing b4 exams and found them better than i expected. So dont worry bout planning specific dates for holidays until ur timetable is released. One last thing most hsc exam papers for 07 will already be finished if not written and being double checked so for instance if you did chem think about what was high in that field last yr (such as the nuclear testing etc) coz there is a chance that could come up.
