Stormbreaker's VCE journal

[Stormbreaker-X]

HELLO ATAR NOTES!!!
Yup it is me Stormbreaker, so today it 10 days until my first ever unit 3/4 exam (I am currently in year 11 doing a year 12 subject). So I plan to do crazy amounts of practice exams leading to the real exam and hope I get a study score of around 30 for this subject. So far this year I screwed up this subject because of online learning and everything. Anyway next year and the duration of this year I plan to keep posting here and give you all updates about my life. I find this a good way to keep motivated. Remember to tune in on my life during the holidays.

My goals and subjects:
ATAR aim: 86 minimum
Subjects: Ancient history unit 3/4, I want around 30 (this subject scales down too).
Math methods 1/2 (dropping it for further unit 3/4 at the end of this year). My goal for further is around 40-45+
Chemistry, I plan to get a tutor for this subject during the holidays as this subject was disastrous. I want a study score around low 30's RAW for this subject.
English aim (plan to get a tutor this holiday too for a head-start next year) around low to mid 30's.
Biology is going all right so far my aim is around 35+
Economics is probably gonna be my ace card, my aim is 45-49 (Averaging A-B's in this subject and won a class award).

Remember all you readers to post here as well so we all can keep each other updated and thank you for reading

Hi Stormbreaker! It's great to see another future Year 12 Journal here
I hope your exam went well! Do you have any passions/hobbies outside of academics?

Hey there, I do have a lot of interest in sports especially swimming. But because of that things that happened this year I can't do any of that, but I know I will get a chance to do those next year. What about you?

My unit 3/4 exam update: So I had my exam last week and it went decently well. If there is one thing I am glad it is that fact that I finished it as history was quite a long and time-tight exam. I will keep you all updated once my study score comes out. Now moving on to my school holiday homework, for English my school is doing Station Eleven, I am Malala and Price as well as the play known as Extinction. Currently I have almost finished Station Eleven (I really want a good score for English next year) and I have already read I am Malala before so I know the book well. My holiday homework plans are:
-Finish all unit 3/4 content for economics
-Finish a lot of content for further math (I did not do unit 1/2 of that subject so I know I am disadvantaged), coming from a former methods student I can clearly say that further math and methods don't have any overlap.
-Finish biology homework and go ahead if I can
-Chemistry is so far probably one of my worst subjects, I am barely passing this year so I really need a tutor in this subject and to start working my ass off over the holidays.
Exam update for my unit 1/2 subject:
English went well, chemistry was a disaster (scored pretty shit), methods (dropping it and failed the exam), economics I am so disappointed as I scored in the 70's which is pretty low compared to my previous scores I aim for a 90 or above and biology is not out yet. Well, thanks for reading and I will see you guys again soon.

Which history did you do? if I'm allowed to ask.

Ancient history

Alright quick update:
I am procrastinating so hard and I am currently reading my year 12 text. I know for certain that I am improving in terms of my study habits, I know that I am going to get through year 12. Also some people in my class scored 100% of their test so that means it might be difficult for me to be ranked 1 next year (crossing my fingers that I can beat them).

[Stormbreaker-X]

Well the holidays started, now I am about to finish off my English text station eleven. My plan today is also to begin doing work for my other subjects (I got a lot of holiday homework).
Chemistry-A booklet to do and gotta catch up on content I did not learn properly in year 11.
Economics-Chapter 7 in the CPAP book and because I am motivated I plan to finish off the whole content this holiday and go through practice exams.
English-Finish all my text and watch the film in order to prepare for year 12.
Biology-Gotta watch 2 chapters worth of content on edrolo over the holidays.
Further math-Well the work for this subject is huge, I gotta do 3 chapters over the holidays plus watch edrolo videos. Since I did not do unit 1/2 it might be harder to understand the content.

Applause for being so organised! Hope it all happens!

Holiday update: Finished station eleven (finally) and current doing economics/chemistry homework. My aim is to finish them off ASAP.

Great to see you are using holidays wisely - please do remember to take some time out for yourself as well during the period. Really important. It's probably the last time you'll get a chance to relax properly, Year 12 is a long year.

[Stormbreaker-X]

Update: Almost finished economics holiday homework which is chapter 7. Biology I am planning to get that done ASAP.
