Anywhere from 0 to 5 hours a day.

The best thing you can do is do it when you feel like it, as you're more likely to absorb the material when you're feeling interested.

WTF. You're doing 5 hours of study and the other guy 7 hours of study per day with one subject?

It really depends on how much effort you are prepared to put in. I had my week of break, going out with friends and chilling after I got my results on the 16th of December last year, and after that I decided to get my act together and prepare for the final year of VCE, studying 5+ hours on some days, but a bit less on other days where I feel like I just need a rest.

Couldn't agree more^

I spent my first week resting for the year ahead and started off with 1-2 hours :)

Looking back, I did also procrastinate so I guess I'll probably have to spend more time catching up now.

Haha, not exactly. I'm also going through Methods 1/2 and GMA.

Mind you, 5 hours of study isn't necessarily 5 hours of pure study. Too many things to get distracted about :p

Yeah, I used to have that habit last year. Mind you, it's not a very good one. I'd rather just study for 1-2 hours solid with no distractions and just get fresh air for the rest of the time, rather that spending around 5 hours in a room studying/distracted (mainly).

Then again, it's usually divided into ~2 hours sessions, so I rarely study 5 hours straight.

If I don't begin at least an hour of study tomorrow I've accepted I am not going to do as nearly well as I want to.
