Pratice Exams

[Dejan]

I was thinking of doing 3 practice exams in one day which includes studying on the areas where i went wrong and correcting exams, only considering doing this due to time is available and I want at least 10 exams knocked out for each subject. Am I going burn out if I actually go ahead with 3 practice exams a day? Good idea or no?

I think it's a good idea, provided that you don't do this everyday for the remaining 4-5 days of holidays, reminding oneself that to correct each exam may take 45min-1hour depending on how many mistakes you made, how you want to tweak you answers to make them that bit better etc....thus, it is a very tiresome process, as the practice exams themselves are exhausting (once again depending on which ones you do!) 

You wrote you want to do 10 for atleast every subject - does that means you're planning to do 3 practice exams for each of your different subjects in the next 5 days (assuming you're planning this schedule for the remaining part of the holidays)? Why don't you space them out a bit more? I can understand that your motivation here is the quantity you want to cover, and the stamina you want to build for the actual exam, as well as desiring an exposure to a greater variety of questions so that you can own the VCAA exam - but you should also look after yourself.

Then again, I'm only in year 11, so such a demanding workload is still a foreign concept  However, if you're keen to do this, don't let anybody tell you it's a bad idea, because it's not!

Well I wanted to get 20 exams done for each subject so If I'd do more in one day I was able to get a minimum of 10 exams done but however I have realized that I've 40 or 41 days till exams (6 weeks) so I am able to spread the exams... *sigh of relief*

Well having looked at some of the subjects in your sig, are you sure you've got 6 weeks until your exams? Or did you realise that there's 6 weeks, a week or two ago?
