Just write notes out by hand and read/rewrite unsure definitions or do questions in your book (if chemistry/maths).
Then

PRACTICE EXAMS!

When I cbs (most days) I study in front of a computer (efficiency decreased by 99%)

When I actually want to study (for mid years or something) I turn off the computer and try to keep it off for as long as possible so I don't watch Anime.

Anime is inversely proportional to study score （＞。＜）　Maybe I shouldn't have gotten that ~300 gigs of anime...?

Play games
Then play more games
Then feel bad for not doing any work
Promise myself to start homework like 1 hour later
and then open book and study by doing lots of questions.

what subjects are you doing?

Gee only 85 days left for you guys? I start my second semester exams around about that time (so for me its like only 85 days left for me actually being a first year student).

Don't feel as though you can't manage 93. I wanted an 95 but thought that after my performance in english my chances would be slim, I also didn't achieve my best ENTER because I was tired, really, really tired. With Mid-Year exams I had a fair amount of energy and spend ages trying to perfect myself for physics (A+ for mid-year) whereas at the end of the year I put in half the effort and got an A.

The main thing with VCE is that now you guys are going to feel a lot of pressure, with finishing up on SAC's and doing practice exam after practice exam, you are also trying to comprehend that you are finishing school. Everything overloads and you just get tired. To try and avoid this you guys should start reviewing stuff in your subjects around about now so the pressure will drop a bit (yep I left my review of stuff to far too late).

ESL doesn't mean you shouldn't be confident, isn't it just the same to score in ESL as it is for Eng?

Yeah lots of hard work. That's it really, do practice exams and resource materials and know the text book as well as you can. Read the text more than once if that helps.

Look at something, get it into your head, and write it down a couple times so it gets into your hand memory. You can focus on your ideas much better when you write them down on paper.
