Class of 2014! :D

I think I might do the same, but just 30 minutes a day. I want to take it slow and not burn out during the year. I'll probably just study the first few topics.

Other than English (reading the texts), I'll be starting at the start of Jan. I think that I'll be reading and doing a bit of catch-up on yr 11 during December very lightly; as soon as January starts, I'll begin doing any of the specified work. For now, I'm concentrating solely on Bio + Further!

Wow you guys sure work hard.

[LazyZombie]

woah respect to you guys
I've always had trouble staying motivated and with procrastination, my goal is to just keep up with class and get ahead whenever I can really.

I'll probably do some spesh work over the summer mostly if I don't end up dropping it
and ill probably start playing minecraft again
But summer isn't for a while yet xD

Wow you guys sure work hard.

Don't you work hard psyxwar? 
I might do a different textbook for spesh and methods and chem during the holidays. Then during class time I can just work on the harder questions of the normal textbook. Since its unlikely that my teachers will actually check my book for all the work this might work. And as for completing unit 3 or unit 3 and 4. In accounting this year I didn't start ahead b4 school I'm ahead now Because I did more work during t1. On the summer holidays instead of setting a deadline saying I will finish unit 3. Ill do an hr a day and see how far I get without rushing.

Wow you guys sure work hard.

This guy was taking biology notes in year 10 when he wasn't doing biology

[Yacoubb]

Wow you guys sure work hard.

You work hard - seriously, for Biology, you know things about photosynthesis/cellular respiration that you don't even need to know first year Bio at university But Bio is an interesting subject and I love doing additional reading on topics that are studied, so I guess that's okay, haha!

dont insult him it's more like yr 9. Not many ppl use the uni textbook for 3/4

What have you guys been doing during these holidays? I'm just consolidating Psych for an upcoming sac and working on weak areas for Maths

For Biology, I'm revising all of the first Area of Study and complete some diagnostic tests for that area of study in this first week, and I've basically revised four chapters. All of next week will be dedicated to studying for my enzymes SAC which I have on the first day back at school.

For Further Maths - completely revising the core and finishing 2 practice exams, questions from the textbook, revision of the theory, and really just going over everything I did this term. Very happy with how I'm going at the moment

I am finishing off the accounting book just a few chapters left. And doing practice exams at least 1 a day I was doing 2 then I started to watch game of thrones and yeah(21 hrs of my life wasted). Now it's finished so back to 2 exams a day. And I have also started circular functions in gma.

In no way am I telling you what to do, but I advise you not to do too many practice exams just yet, because you're going to eventually run out of materials and become too reliant on exams; subsequently, you will not expose yourself to the course as well as you should. Maybe one practice exam or even two max is probably enough to give you a rough indication of the depth to which you are required to know a particular topic + also see how good you are at ensuring you properly answer the question

Revising for bio sac, legal sac, sitting around wasting time, etc.

How are you finding doing 2 3/4s? I'm doing better than what I expected; I'm not neglecting Further Maths despite how easy it is because it is ultimately a yr 12 subject that requires ample effort. Biology on the other hand is taking up time to learn the content + extra knowledge really well, and then ultimately complete practice questions and work on other areas like experimental design.

I'm also doing better than what I expected, but since Legal and Bio are two completely different types of subjects, I just have to learn to balance them. In my opinion, legal is more of a rote learning kind of subject because you can just memorize answers to questions and do well by just regurgitating these answers back onto your SAC (but there's a lot to remember), while in Biology you're required to understand the topics in depth as well as experimental design,etc. But overall, I'm doing okay I guess.
