Title: HSC Timetable
Post by: emilyygeorgexx on May 01, 2018, 06:28:36 pm
Hey!

This is such a random question and I don't know if anyone knows but is there a specific time that the HSC Timetable comes out tomorrow??

Thanks  :)

Hi...

I remember looking at my students online account about this a few days ago...
From memory, it didn't have any specific times, but said it would be in the AM (there was something else released in the PM).  :)

Edit: This could be a good thread for anyone to post their timetables after tomorrow, if they like. To compare dates and such.

Hey, there!

It says our personal timetables will be delivered to us by email or SMS tomorrow (A.M) and the HSC Written Examination Timetable for 2017? (P.M). Pretty sure the second bit was a typo but from what I assume, NESA will be releasing both your own timetable plus the overall schedule for the written exams tomorrow. Best of luck and hopefully there won't be any major double ups on your timetables  :D

Omg hopefully! I think I might actually cry if I have two exams on one day.

You guys can definitely have a contest for "worst timetable" if you feel so inclined ;D

I basically want to have a (close to) full version of the HSC timetable based on everyones personal ones, before it gets released by NESA in the evening - Beat them to the punch ;)

Praying for an even spread for mine!!  :-[

I've seen the CSSA trials timetable, and i'd be absolutely screwed with that. I'd have 4 exams in 2 days!  :-[

An excellent proposition! Keen to see what people get! :-\

Odds are probably in my favour, because I only have four subjects to reckon with...But I'm just waiting to see whether Food Tech is on the last day. It is notoriously late every year!

Art is always one of the later ones too. Today our art teacher was like 'it will probably your last exam and you'll all be jumping up and down in happiness [Guy in my class] will probably be zooming out the gate'

Post by: jamonwindeyer on May 01, 2018, 09:32:35 pm
Yeah, they usually maintain those patterns. We'll get another English Paper 1/Music 1 double up on the Thursday, Paper 2 on the Friday - I like this configuration, it gives everyone a break after English. I really hope they don't pull a mean one and stick something like Senior Science or PE on the Friday afternoon. Usually those appear early, hopefully they hold off.

Or maybe English will be last, Economics will be first, and MX2 will be cancelled altogether. Groovy ;)

I want to get ALL Of mine done early so it's just over and done with. BUT NOT TOO EARLY like i still want an even spread.
Looking over the 2017 timetable, i'd have a pretty solid spread; with exams on Days 1,2 (English...........) Day 5 (Modern History) Day 6 (Genny Maths, well that'd be crap having them one day after another...) and Day 14 (society and culture, one of the last exams..)

For tomorrow...GOOD LUCK EVERYONE, MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR

If they threw a spanner in the works and put economics first, I literally don't even know what I would do with my life.

It's usually always one of the last ones, so my faith of extra revision, because I think will be one of my hardest exams, comes within those few extra days at the end.

Actually, Modern was on the Friday and Maths was on Monday ahahaha so it wasn't too bad! :-)



Hope you all get good timetables guys! Those few days in between are the best for cramming lol

I am already waiting for the Advanced/Music 2 double up to slap me right in the face first thing today  :'( As long as I don’t have a double up with Modern then I’ll be happy because I know that subject is my weakest one by far  :'( Fingers crossed, everyone!

So i have my timetable buutt I'm on my phone so I'll attach it tonight. So far is pretty yucky, like I have one double up which is SOR and Engineering which is on my last day 6th of november. Ill get a pic tonight but lets just say I'm not too happy.

The timetable I posted on the ATAR Notes FB page went up before NESA's. Not complete, but I still chalk that as a win ;)

Seeing some pretty nasty double ups and consecutives actually! How are we feeling? :)

Post by: Opengangs on May 02, 2018, 12:11:59 pm
I would've had Business Studies and Software Design on the same day (thank god I graduated last year ;D)

Post by: beatroot on May 02, 2018, 01:26:18 pm
I would like to contact NESA and ask them why Visual Arts is so darn early??? Creative subjects are never these early in the timetable so unsure if this is a good or bad thing. I would've had Visual Arts, Maths and Ancient History all in the one week ahhh. Hope the timetable works out well for everyone :)
Title: Re: HSC Timetable
Post by: angewina_naguen on May 02, 2018, 02:29:14 pm
I actually have so much I want to say about mine.

18/10- Advanced Paper 1
19/10- Advanced Paper 2, Music 2
22/10- Visual Arts
29/10- Modern History, Society and Culture
31/10- Extension 1 English



Cons-

MODERN AND SOCIETY ON THE SAME DAY. This is literally a repeat of my half yearlies  :'( I had these two exams on the same day in my half yearly as well and it is just such a disgusting double up. I even said earlier in this thread that I didn’t want a double up for Modern and this is just the rudest thing NESA has decided to do  >:( The only nice thing is that I have a week to prepare for them...

Why is the Visual Arts exam so early? The CAPA teachers are all shocked that Music and VA are so close together  :'( I thought they would spread out the subjects out so students who had subjects in the same faculty wouldn’t suffer too badly.

Middle area-

Extension 1 English being my last exam. I’m quite happy with this because I want to end with my most confident subject but if I could I wouldn’t mind switching this with either Modern or Society to avoid such an ugly double up  >:(

Advanced Paper 2 and Music double up. I saw this one coming and although I detest the idea of doing these two on the same day, at least it’s Paper 2 and I won’t have to worry about doing another English exam like previous years when they put it on the afternoon of Paper 1.

Pros-

Getting them over and done with. My exams finish on the 31st which means I am out of the HSC much earlier than some of my friends  :)

Overall, I have mixed feelings about the timetable. I just hope my Trials one will be more in my favour because this is not pretty  :'( There’ll be plenty of time to bring myself up and work hard though so I’ll just try to stay positive where I can and change my perspective on the timetable once I have a little cry  ;D :'(

Post by: Razeen25 on May 02, 2018, 03:11:54 pm
I'm happy I don't have any double ups. BUT WHY ARE LEGAL, BIOLOGY AND MATHS IN THE SAME WEEK. Like smh I had faith legal would be in the end. Also, after maths I have an 8 day break until Business Studies, and I'd literally have preferred to have an 8 day break for ANY other subject, since Business is my strongest subject ughhhh. Oh well.

I FINISH ON 2ND NOVEMBER AND HAVE A CONCERT THAT NIGHT THOUGH. That's literally the best end of HSC day I can imagine

Post by: NowYouTseMe on May 02, 2018, 03:41:12 pm
I seem to be one of the rare ones that didn't get destroyed by a bad timetable. My only gripes would have to be with French being a week after English Extension 1 and Legal being 3 days after Paper 2 - was kinda relying on Legal being late with a decent gap from my other subjects and I have no idea what I'm going to do in the week between Extension 1 and French. That being said, I have a few mates who have English Extension 1, Maths Extension 1 and Modern History in 3 consecutive days, which is super unlucky.

Yeah, RIP!

My timetable:
English Paper 1    18/10 AM
English Paper 2    19/10 AM
Biology                  24/10 AM
Mathematics         25/10 PM
Food Technology  07/11 PM

Pretty much what I expected... It's not too bad, but two afternoon exams? Ewwwww.... So much time between Maths and Food Tech, so I feel like I will lose so much motivation haha.  ;D
