Balancing sac and exams at the same time?!?!?!

[VVVCCCEEE]

I have 3 sacs coming up next week and the week after are exams. It's very frustrating because I can't juggle sacs and exam at the same time.

Say if you were me, how would you cope with it?

Hi!
I'm guessing this is just internal Unit 3 exams that you're talking about? The ones that don't count towards anything but just the ones that teachers use to see how you're going?

If so, I'd focus preparing more for SACs and then when you get bored / tired/ you want a change, then revise only bits of Unit 3 that you weren't sure about or you find difficult to do.
Look at the study design and judge your strengths and weaknesses.
You'll find that most things that you learnt are still stuck in your memory!
So just focus on things that you need most help with...


I'd say dedicate max 30 mins each day to revise for any particular exam, and then the rest of the day should be towards preparing for your SACs
Or if you get tired preparing for your SACs, just do some light reading for exam revision.
e.g. reading a sample essay for English (if you've just forgotten a text that you've studied, or need some constant reminding of ideas), or if you're doing Maths, just doing some past papers and taking out Unit 3 questions to do?


Obviously you want to do really well on the exams, but I'd focus more on SACs (after all, Unit 3 exams don't count towards your ATAR!
So later, come exam revision time, you'll probably be very confident with Unit 4 since it's the last thing we do, and then you can easily revise anything for Unit 3 that you found hard

All the best, and take care of yourself!
