Struggling in methods - what do I need to know for a 30SS?

[molecular.]

Hey guys, I really haven't opened my methods book for a long time.

I still have over a month before my exam and I am a quick learner. Can i still get a 30? My sac average is a flat C.

What do I need to know?? Which exams should I specifically do?

I do think it's possible to get a 30, depending on numerous factors such as your cohort, the SACs, the exam and perhaps the GAT.
I suggest that you revise for your course, as in all of it. When that is done, do practise exam questions. Perhaps do them with notes and CAS first. I can't exactly tell you what you need to know since you could potentially be tested upon the whole course. All in all, do your best to revise and prepare for anything.

In terms of practise exams:
Most of the questions on the VCAA exams should be good to do, except that you should check with your teacher: some stuff has been taken out of the study design such as modulus, absolute functions, related rates and so forth. They may tell you do not do certain questions. However, this year's sample paper should be good to do. In fact, chances are, they are likely to similar to the actual exam in terms of difficulty.

If not, commercial papers from companies such as NEAP, Insight, MAV should be adequate.

Just to add here. Great post above btw

I reckon for 30SS, might want to stick to insight and Heffernan exams for now. They are generally of the same difficulty or slightly easier than VCAA, hence, a better source of preparation than some of the harder papers. Good Luck
