What are your aims for these holidays? (3 Viewers)

[study-freak]

don't 'prepare' essays. Practice them.

Write study notes - this one can't be stressed enough. Whether you write or type them, you need to get them out now, because trust me, you won't have time later.

Also, you would be an idiot not to read your prescribed texts for english.

Don't do any past papers either. Save them for the period after the trials.

And make mistakes now - so you don't have to make them in an exam/the hsc

+1
