So i've procrastinated all week and i already had my AOS essay and creative under control since the first week of the first term. I delayed to this horrible moment because 0 motivation and i keep thinking that going tafe would be so much easier (obviously not but I'm always on the edge of dropping because sometimes it's too stressful and hard).

Anyhow, english next tuesday and i just wanted to know is it possible to memorise 2000 words by then?
I really need some memorising techniques that you guys would use and has been successful.

I feel like I'm going to fail these upcoming half yearlies.

Do not worry mate... I have my english half yearly tomorrow and I am cramming right now :D There's no need to memorise 2000 words~ just memorise the concepts and quotes (recycled info, I know, but it makes your job a lot simpler). I'm using this app called iMemorize, where you add your quote or concept in and it uses this technique to help you remember it. Download the app if you can and see for yourself. Think positive. And good luck to you :)

Stop freaking out, you'll be fine. Memorise the quotes and techniques, just read them over and over again then trying writing them down without looking at them! Or stick post notes in your toilet. While lying in bed say the quotes over and over again as you fall asleep!
These techniques really do work! But a bonus for me is that I can memorise an essay + creative writing in an hour and half!
Make sure you have some idea of what thesis you want, just reword it while integrating the question!
Hope this helps!!
