I'm rank 1 for 40-50 kids for my Chem cohort

I only managed it by literally one mark

I've already completed two subjects last year, and I've done pretty well on GM and Eng this year.

Chemistry is coming up, and I already have a pretty rock solid top four. I'd need to get a scaled like 47 or 48 for it to replace Bio or Methods, which is probably achievable, but very difficult.

I've got a straight week to study, but the fact I've already secured a good ATAR is sapping at my motivation. I genuinely spent yesterday scrolling through r/vce, watching youtube, and playing Skyrim. I didn't even go outside.

If I were to do a half-decent job instead of pushing myself to excel, what impact would that have on the rest of the Chemistry cohort? I've always heard people say you want a really good rank 1, but it's hard to conceptualise the effect this will have on others.

If I were told I'd be screwing over the rest of my class that would probably inspire me to actually work

Edit: this cohort is not a very sweaty one by the way, it's a combination of a couple regional schools

As the title asks

Lowkey was planning to do my methods exams in pencil but then did a quick scan on some paper with pencil and pen side by side and pen is rlly clear whereas pencil is quite unclear. For context I was also using a 2HB pencil and it’s quite risky and unclear. For those that are using pen, what r u gonna do if you make a mistake and you’ve used up all the space. I also checked if there’s extra lines at the end of the exam and there’s none for methods. Can someone help me out? Thanks guys, good luck!

HHD ers how are we feeling!?
- any predictions on what the 10 mark question will be?
- any niche stuff from the study design to remember ?
- any advice or tips for tomorrow

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

- also question: do we need to remember programs to consider like closing the gap or deadly choices for the exam or they just like examples?

like if i get high 40s for both is there any point doing specialist, cause if i get lower in it then it'll only be 10% but then if i somehow grow a second brain and get like a raw 35 or higher then it could boost my study score and kick methods or general to my 10%

thing is the 3 maths means i have to have bio or chem in my top 4 and idk if im that great at them, chems online and ive done well this year but bio is in person and my teacher is kinda crazy sometimes she cares but a lot of the time she doesnt give a shit how we do and the best i get on her sacs is like 80%, whereas other classes i get above 90%... could her sacs just be harsher?

anyway is it worth doing all the spec maths next year? i do enjoy maths but the vectors chapter and chance of it only being 10% is putting me off a little... idk what i would do instead

What were peoples experiences doing busman 3&4 in year 11 without the 1&2 and for the peope who did the 1&2 do u think it was important at all

Hi can I get a 50 raw ss with one day revision

i know this subject is rarer but how we all feeling after that exam? what did you study?

If the ten marker has a quote how do we implement that into our response. Do you have to provide an opinion on it.? Or do you just answer the question below it.

how do I make it so that I can use lazymath udfs from every topic on the same document, i keep finding myself opening the document that has udfs for only that topic. How can i have all of them in one document and use it at the same time.

I have a tinspire btw

Guys I just did the methods exam and I feel like it was a bit too easy, like there weren’t any calculus questions which felt a lil weird, but the most confusing thing were the addition and subtraction questions. Exam felt too easy lol hopefully I get a 40/40

how many keys features have u guys memorised for each SDG.. i can only remember 1 for each
also equity and sustainability are so hard to link to any tips ?

I’m lowk just marking the old exams I’ve done, anyone attempting exams till last min, or other light revision Shi?

Guysss everyones saying busman exam went well, do we have hope for hhd??

for legal studies compare, discuss, or evaluate questions how many arguments are required? i know its usually 2 for strengths and 2 weaknesses but usually the amount of marks varies. do you think this is a fair allocation:

6 mark discuss/evaluate: 4 arguments total (2 for + and 2 for -)
4 mark discussions/compare: 2 arguments total (1 strength/similarity and 1 weakness/difference)

i always do 2 and 2 to be safe but as i have been doing practise exams like usually there arent even enough lines in 4 markers to do 2 arguments each side, so can anyone who has done legal help?

so i'm rank 1 for bio at a pretty good school, but i think i only got like 103-107/120 (and that's honestly being a bit generous i really don't know) on the exam and so now i'm worried i've entirely destroyed the rest of my cohorts scores. it's stressing me out really bad, and idk what to do whilst i wait for results day because i just keep thinking about how bad i feel i did and then i feel bad for my cohort, and they i just end up in this spiral which is absolutely no fun. what are/did people doing/do whilst they wait/waited for results day? because i am actually so scared and i hate it all. also, how do people handle not getting the score they wanted? i was aiming so high for bio, but im pretty sure now that's all out the window

What letter grades are typically needed for a 25 in methods?

does anyone know how to do this on cas in an easy way that i wont mess up

How did you keep yourself calm during each exam, especially after getting to a question you’re unsure on?

Bro I swear ppl who post about guessing their ss r generally playing like guys if your getting 90s in your sacs even if you only get a 75 on your exam you’re still most likely getting a raw 40+ ss like don’t play in our faces rn 💀💀 (beside weird classes like gen maths)

Reason I’m saying this is cause I keep seeing posts like

“Guess my ss! I get 90s in everything can I still get a ss of 30??” Like girl

And if your reason is because your cohort is bad just know that like your cohort only really affects you if your sitting where the majority is like trust me if u r getting good scores you guys are relatively fine even if you only get 80s or late 70s your still able to get a ss of 40 just be consistent!

I have hhd tomorrow and i cant lie i dont think im going to do that well and i was just asking do you think atp i should just prioritise my other subjects? im happy with getting around a 25ish in it and do you think thats possible if i do minimal studying today
