Study Periods (2 Viewers)

woahhhh how do you even cope James Ruse? XD

Positive attitude, late night studying and the occasional nervous break down.

And no, I don't go to James Ruse. I go to a non-selective public school that shall not be named

I don't understand, what's the point of putting these stupid sport periods? It's a waste of time IMO. If you wanna play sport with your friends, do i before school/after school or during lunch/recess/free periods. Do any of your schools allow you to play sport during free period?

No. Our free periods are called "study periods" and rolls are marked to make sure you're there. Socialising during those periods is generally frowned upon. Whereas we have a large variety of sports and you're usually (especially as a senior student) allowed to bludge during sport and chat - or just pick a sport that allowed for chatting like ice skating or bowling.

We have a similar system except rolls aren't marked and although technically you should be studying, you can pree much do whatever you want. Playing sport on the oval or basketball courts is usually fine unless it pissess someone off and they tell you to go study

Frees at my school, no rolls are marked. You are allowed to leave the school grounds providing you swipe out and swipe back in once you return.
(i never swiped in and out cause ceebs)

This was me as me and my mates as we were the only ones with frees in our grade.
But as the terms progress, it becomes more and more valuable as you can do all your hw at school and do pp and notes at home

I was lucky(?) and had no friends in my free so I made pretty good use of them

Yeah we only get freebies if we drop a subject

At my school 2 units equals 9 periods a fortnight

 

[Green Yoda]

2 units = 6 period a fortnight (80min per period)

can be 6.5 periods for some subjects like physics as we have a half a period worth after school every day.

We only have 1 4u teacher (my current 2u/3u teacher) and she is not a good teacher. So most probs i will not do 4u

If you're semi decent at 3u, you should consider doing it and just getting a tutor.
