VCE Year 12 Class of 2015

[paper-back]

Splash-tackle-flail, when you said you've done 2 whole exams, were they in timed conditions?
I can't seem to sit myself down for 3 hours at home without getting frustrated at the amount of questions I can't do (and walking away in a fit of rage) or worrying about another subject

[tashhhaaa]

How do you know what percentile you got? Today i did a practice prep genie one and scored 48/70 (69%) but not sure if this is good or bad?

the medentry one gives you your percentiles against the medentry cohort

idk either :s it seems alright since the prep course ones are generally harder

One (NIE) was at a tutorial thing, so was in exam conditions, and atmosphere I guess. The other (ACER) was at home, in timed conditions, so not exactly exam conditions for that one. I'm not really the best at motivation but I do know exactly how you feel (I was going to do one today, but just ended up doing a few drills).. How about tomorrow we both promise to get one done ? And honestly you're definitely not the only person whose frustrated at incorrect questions; tbh the only people that aren't are child-einsteins or people who haven't done any UMAT preparation at all, and so don't get any wrong (which is apparently quite a percentage- e.g. person at NIE said one kid did did it thinking it was for law).

I have the disease on wednesday(try to guess..), a specialist SAC on friday, an english SAC on tuesday, and chemistry SACs on both tuesday and wednesday. How can you even complain, you're living the good life.. xD

Did you finish one today? I only managed to finish one I started a few days ago on the ACER website (had gotten 45 questions in and gave up) and do practise section 1 from ATARnotes today

Good luck to all the umat kiddies! What are some important last minute things to know before or during the exam? Cheers

Yeah just knocked down and did one early afternoon- wasn't really in the mood and it showed in my marks I guess. Even then you did say 90 questions that's basically an exam, so I'd call today a success.

Following this, I've got one more Acer exam to go- do you guys think I should do it as a proper one on Tuesday as a last hurrah practice or spread it out over monday (don't have the time to do it all at once on monday) so it won't be as mentally exhausting?

Monday, last thing you want is to be even more stressed out the day before

I find section 1 the most difficult and tedious
