Past papers. That's all you'll need. Succcessones are good cos you can memorise answers.
(& also write out some essay plans for english/ancient)

Edit: Yeah, what he said ^

Past papers but i would also make up some questions for options were the syllabus has been altered or just introduced.

For example, in ancient history we are doing the Julio-Claudians which has only been in the HSC 4 years or some shit. So it would be a good idea to synthesize some questions.

Do it enough and chances of guessing the question or coming close to it are pretty high.

well here's a schedule for me

English - past paper 1's, learning to adapt the creative into the stimulus given, refine my essays and also try to write essays off scratch using my notes in case if there is a fucked up question in the HSC. it also gives me a chance to attempt to answer the question extremely well :p
Maths - past papers for both 3U and 4U, binomial probability and permutations + combinations review T_T, also gonna try to tutor students who need in 2U, 3U and 4U so i can bump my tutoring skills :p
legal studies - past papers, read through content, make more notes for world order
music - strictly 2 hours of piano a day (played only 1-2 hours a week in the past two weeks T_T)

I will make a list of shit to do on the weekend and then do it over the next few weeks. But I don't think I'll get it done.
Not doing shit this week though.
Even though we have half a topic to cover in bio and 1 and a half in mx2. Lol

Hey mate, how many units are you doing? If you do 12, chances are that maths won't count.
