When to start practice exams?

[tony3272]

hmm so the general consensus is over the holidays?
think i may do the same, considering the amount of SACs that seem to be approaching

If anything, you could start maths exams (the 1 hour ones) right away and do maybe 2 a week. You should be able to find time to do them and when you get to holidays you could have a lot completed. They're also not too bad for sac revision 

Thats basically what I am doing now, up to 17 for methods and 4 for spesh.

I'm up to 17 for methods aswell 
Haven't started any for spesh though. I think i'm going to do a bit of revision and start next weekend.

ah so just do the part 1s for now and do the exam 2s over the hols?

Starting exam 2 now isn't a bad idea if you're not too busy with sacs and stuff. I just find that because exam 1 is so short you can find an easy 30-50 minutes to quickly do one every now and then.

Thats the reason that I mostly doing exam 1's. The reason I'm up to seventeen is because I was doing methods exams on the holidays, to procrastinate from doing Chem. It's costing me now because as I got slack with Chem, I have forgotten bits and pieces here and there so I need more revision before I can start exams. But thats what happens you try to push hard for a week and a half to finish the spesh book.

EDIT: I'm actually doing spesh exams now so that I can procrastinate from doing an english essay.

No idea to be honest! I feel like I've pretty much perfected Context and Text Response, so I'll just work on Language Analysis until the last SAC is finished and then start English exams I guess.

No idea for the rest of them. I'd say the coming holidays, or as soon as all SACs are finished.

Start now!!!!!!

If not, have all your notes done by the holidays at the very latest.

Are you serious? You haven't started practise exams? OMGWTFBBQ

You're gonna fail unless you don't start soon. I started last year.

Such is life.

Here's my plan:

Since only one AOS left in most subjects, begin practice exams next week or week after and that way they act both as revision of all the old crap you can't remember from U3, and also as practice for the final AOS!

Going with this principle, I'm going to be starting this friday, aim to get 2-3 done each week from my top 3 subjects over the rest of the term, then really go for it in the holidays until exam time.
