Definitely Taylor Swift's Shake It Off before/after an exam!!!

I've found that listening to classical music before an exam is really helpful. The La La Land Score is stunning and that's been helping me destress recently!

My really embarrassing playlist also includes High School Musical...

Breaking Free from HSM is another one that would help after an exam!

It's actually a perfect fit! When I'm especially stressed Scream is pretty great haha

Hey!
I did the HSC last year (2017) and my 10 units were English Advanced, English Extension 1, English Extension 2, Legal Studies, Maths and Studies of Religion 2. I achieved my ATAR aim of over 90!

I loved tutoring and running essay writing workshops (privately and at InFlow Education) so much that I decided to study a Bachelor of Secondary Education, majoring in English and minoring in Maths!

If you're thinking about tutoring, let me know x

If I studied with music, I'd always try something relaxing.

After an exam, I'd always go with my favourite band.

But before an exam (and this is something I hope everyone can agree with), I'd put on THE BEST OF BON JOVI : 1,000 HOUR VERSION to get me hyped up!

I use my HSC playlist every study session to get my head into the right mindset! :)
There's a bit of everything; acoustics, piano, etc. but my favourites are songs by Ta-Ku, Kanye and The Internet

I'm imagining you walking around town, eating, sleeping, with earbuds in weeks before the exam just so you can listen to all 1000 hours

Kanye is such a popular study technique! Now I just feel like I'm missing out  :P
