Agree ... I completely blanked for foreign policy of Xerxes. When I looked at my notes afterwards I realised it was all about preparations for the Greco-Persian wars, fml I wrote like 10 lines on that. Bye bye band 6 ..

Reading this thread has just confirmed how much I failed that exam. I just love Chem :bomb:

Does any one know if the required 150/200 STAT result has changed for 2010? If it hasn't been posted yet, where will the notification be sent to?

I'm doing the STAT tomorrow at midday and I'm getting worried for it ... I didn't do great in the practice booklet they sent (got about 50 something questions right out of 70) and I don't know how that'll transfer to tomorrow's test.. Any ideas?

I'm doing the English Reformation - "Discuss the conflicting views of the Catholics and the Church of England reformers in three areas of society: the monarchy, the laity and religion". I think it's too broad and I could talk for thousands of words on it. Once I started researched I liked the...

Actually .. yeah I agree with that. I wish I took the advice of my teachers and parents when they told me the same thing at the beginning on year 11. Consistent study people! And hollyy. .. thanks :)

My advice was just 'save it for the HSC', and I said that from personal experience. I was referring to effort, and in some cases, just general willingness to work. I studied like bleeding hell for prelim, and I've burnt out. My honest advice for anyone starting the preliminary course would be...

This is how I feel about starting Term 2 of the HSC: I want to run away and never come back. I think I'll hide out in the mountains.

lol, thanks, I know that'll be what I'm going to end up doing.

Crap, I haven't started! Have people really been using the summer holidays for notes? Did you guys take a break at all? I think I put too much effort into Year 11. I feel dead now. I don't want to touch a damn pen.

I'm doing Romanticism as well. In our class it was a toss up between that and Crime Fiction. I was all for Romanticism (I love the time period and general context) but I'm starting to think it's going to be hard coming up with a creative piece on it - I could never write poetry like Coleridge or...

Reading this thread has made me feel so much worse about procrastinating the entire summer holidays!
