JMSS 2014 Testing Talk!

[Jamin2906]

Maybe bring a whole cake and share it with the people doing the test around you (or keep it to yourself). I think if you hid the phone underneath the cake it might work. Oh... and in case I don't see you on the day, Happy Birthday!

Yeah bring some for me and Happy Birthday. Mine is just 8 days after yours (29th)

Wow guys, 2 more days! Can you believe it? Seems like yesterday that it was 6 months to go! Time went so quick and it even is half the year gone already!  So much studying, preparing and practising on the last months we have done have lead to Saturday the 21st June.

haha! I'm staying home since all our exams are done  I am feeling mixed but also think I have prepared well. Come at us eduTEST! 

[godzerah]

Hahaha all of you guys are like "wow yeah I'm so prepared!" "months of studying should pay off!!" and I'm here just like "I'm so screwed.." ( I don't mean to offend anyone, Apologies to anyone I do offend)
On a serious note though, how long do the essays on the exam have to be?
I'm also currently doing some practice essays and was wondering If I could get some topics? thanks

For the essays, the examiners expect you to write at least 1 page to 1 and 1/2 (it depends if diagrams are included and how large your handwriting is) hahaha on average, I write 1 and 1/4 pages.

I did a practise essay (the one about separating the water, sand, and iron fillings) about a week ago and haven't gathered up the courage to read it yet (it's probably really bad). I'm going to do a few more (tonight and tomorrow) just to gather up my magical essay powers.

Oh... and to clarify things. You know how you said not to learn new things or study too much on Friday, would I still be allowed to do essays? I'm going to go to bed really early, but if I have a chance before that should I?

Up to you haha, as long as you get a good night sleep though, all is good . I'm personally just going to read over all my notes though.

Same here haha! I made chapter summaries of every single chapter of year 7,8 and 9 Science in dot points, so I will read them.   
Anyone have any tips to try to fall asleep quickly? It takes me like 1 - 2 hours after laying in bed to actually go to sleep these days

LOL i have one for sure: Have a cup of warm milk before bed :DD Always worked for me

Yeah like waftj said, drinking a warm cup of milk works pretty well but another way I guess is to get rid of all your thoughts, if that makes sense . Our brain tends to rethink about the events that's happened during the day, but that is very annoying because it makes your brain stay alert, which means you can't fall asleep But yeah, thinking about it, it has been quite hard for me to fall asleep too these few days, probably just too much thinking, haha
