Advice for yr 11??

So, does anyone have any advice for the Yr 11's?
Such as: what to do, what not to do (procrastinate), and random tips.

Thank-you!

Make sure you have solid foundations for your year 11 subjects.
Prioritise your 3/4, do at least 1 hour a night.
Have a social life.

Here are some tips:
- Use this time to learn what form of writing you are best at (persuasive, expository, creative or hybrid) so when you get to the Context in Year 12, you'll be set.
- The persuasive speech at the end of the year (at least it was the end of the year for me) can be great practice for the actual SAC for Yr.12 which is right at the start of the year.
- Don't be afraid of your teacher! Personally, I did not set appointments with my Yr.11 teacher after essays were given back, but having those meetings with my Year 12 teacher greatly improved my learning.

Hope these help, and good luck.
