I'm only doing biology, but have put a fair amount of time into study. I've written heaps of notes and done something like 20 practice exams. Ill hopefully get up to 30-35 done by the time of the exam (Nov 4). Also to those in year 11, are you going to school the day before your exam?

I started exam revision stuff for IT Applications during the June/July holidays. Spent the entire term 3 revising the course thoroughly etc. For Physics I was just working on my cheatsheet and revising theory during Term 3.

I started exams for both subjects at the start of the September holidays - I've done about ~18 exams for physics and ~13 exams (all the 2011 exams I have and the past two VCAA exams) for IT Applications. I'll keep doing exams for the sake of it (still have three weeks), I'll be focusing on perfecting my exam technique and reducing "silly errors", since by now I've pretty much mastered the content.

Also to those in year 11, are you going to school the day before your exam? 
My first exam is on a Monday, so I won't be going to school on a Sunday. Physics exam is the day after on the Tuesday. I'll attend whatever classes I have before and after exam the exams. I'm really not going to gain much from spending the extra 4 sessions or whatever it is doing study - that's what the weeks before the exam were for.

I did the same for the midyear physics exam (attended the class I had). It was actually pretty good, it was a chilled back media session, watched a film. It got me pretty relaxed for the exam, otherwise I'd end up stressing my head off.

Yeah, I'm thinking of going. The exam is on Friday after the 4 day weekend. I don't think I'd want to do much study on the Thursday, and if I'm home I think I might end up studying too much and get worked up. But who knows what I'll end up doing, will just have to see what I feel like Thursday morning...

You might as well go to school before your exam if you have Year 11 classes, if you're tired and you want a sleep in, take the day off, but make sure you don't study, it won't help you :)

Haven't done as much study as I should - Revs is very content-heavy and I'm still trying to consolidate everything I've learnt this year. It's a lot to remember. I started practice questions at the beginning of the month, but I haven't done any full exams yet.

Fortunately for us, we get swotvac in Year 11, so I have two weeks to work at it.

Im doing chemistry and I've done about 6 practise exams.. hopefully do about 20 all up though, going to do one per day from now on. Not devoting the time I thought I would devote to it though.. it's just like ceebs for some reason, I have no idea why.
