As epic as your IOM book is, I really think this is more than unnecessary. I don't think any prompts would make use of the teeny weeny details you expanded on. Just sayin'...

I will prove it to you in an hour!

Here I thought homework = study. It appears my concept of study is skewered. Damnit!

About Philosophy

When I see a youth thus engaged,—the study appears to me to be in character, and becoming a man of liberal education, and him who neglects philosophy I regard as an inferior man, who will never aspire to anything great or noble. But if I see him continuing the study in later life, and not leaving off, I should like to beat him - Callicle

For MM this year I get stuff done in class and with what I don't get to do in class I'll spend about an hour per session as homework and listen to instrumental music whilst I do it to kick start my mood to study. Some days I don't do any work other times I may do two sessions in one day or maybe just one. I will often skip some of the Q's so that I can move on a bit quicker.

by defintion the vic. gov includes homework as study
That sucks.

Homework is defined as the work set by the school to do at home (hence its term as its not done at school)

Study is the work done by a student in order to a) understand the homework or b) to get ahead.

Starting is the hardest IMO. I recommend setting goals or making a timetable.

Physics: Just keep doing questions. So when it comes to the SAC most questions will be familiar.
Methods: Same as physics
English: Read articles, books and practice writing quality essays on a short amount of time
Business Management: Be ahead of the class, read newspapers, understand concepts and how to apply them in real life
Further: sleep. Jokes :D Probably understand and know how to do questions right when you see them, learn how to ue your calculator.

P.S I don't do any of this lol. This is what I shold start doing though :S

Personally method hw is so repetitive and boring so I usually do about 3 questions from each exercise and go straight for the application task.

For spesh I set my Sunday afro as my spesh studying session and just do lhs for every single questions.

For physics just do all the questions from the text book

P.s I have a really weird habit of talking to myself outloud when I don't understand a question or a concept and try to somehow teach myself :S Also music helps you to start the study sesh
