Ah right.

Thing is, it's the pressure I'm getting to do well though. If I get a UAI below 70, it's basically a bullet to the head for me.
Um yeah, don't joke about that faggot.

But the SC is completely irrelevant to the HSC...

What, bullet to the head? It was just an expression.

No plans to do myself in, dewd.

edit: @speedofsound

Yeah, I know it's pretty unimportant. But still... I actually want to do good. It's like running in a race. Coming first doesn't mean much, but you still want to come first.

Okay this is what I've decided to do before monday:

read my science textbook
do an english past paper
read ex. book for geo and his


Now that it's only days away I'm actually going to start doing some studying.....

What is everybody else doing?
Most 10ers on BOS (and older people) keep emphasising how much of a bludge it is :D but what are you actually doing??

I plan to start studying tomorrow, Saturday arvo and Sunday arvo.

Mostly history though, i really bummed out for my trials on that subject =\
Math and Science I think i can pull off a B6, English i'll be happy with a B5.
Probably, go through some geo notes on Sunday.

The easiest exam (if you would even call it an exam!) is going to be the computer skills one lol

Would love all B6's, but probably wont happen =[

Yes you are screwed pretty much. Unless you actually remember all your stuff without regular study.
Well, surely the regular work these people have been putting in over the year and their concerns about SC crap proves that they will be fine, maybe? I'd hope so.

I've only done those online multiple choice things for science, history, maths and geo.
I got too lazy so I skipped english. LOL.
I'm planning to work more 'productively' after school tomorrow and during the weekend ..
hmm .. hopefully it actually works out. haha

lol, all you yr 10 guys are gonna look back in 2 years and say to yourselves "why did i even worry for a second for the sc". Although u wont understand now you will during your hsc exams while ur laughing at the yr tens in 2010 stressing over sc.
Going back to the thread i studied for 2 hrs per subject before the test and still got 4 band 6's so you'll be fine so ur not screwed, just study over the weekend.

seriously, school certificate = biggest waste of time ever. they make it so any person of any ability in nsw can achieve semi ok results.

i hated history with a passion last year and never ever listened or cared in the slightest and i got a band six with only doing the past papers my teacher made me and minimal actually study.

so dont stress.

you do need some sleep, otherwise you may well fall asleep during the exams. i am like you, though, and want to study for ages. the sc was made to be easy, and you do not need much study to achieve ok marks, but every bit helps.
