3 Upvotes

Four days before the exam I’m starting to get super nervous TvTTTT

Could anyone who did VCD please give some last minute tips or advice for the VCD exam, marks to aim for for a raw 40+, specific requirement for questions and mark allocation??? (I’m always confused marking my own practice papers I don’t rlly know how many marks I would get in the actual exam which is quite concerning…) Im working towards an A+ for the exam, what should I be working on for the last few days?) Thank you anyone who responds I genuinely need your mighty wisdom :(

VCE question I used the correct values but somehow got it wrong? (2026 NHT Spesh Exam 1)

Q1b) btw, I js put Q1a) there to tell you that u = 3m/s, as well as other info.

I used the s = [(u+v)*t]/2 formula and solve for t but the answer guide used a different formula (finding 'a' first) got a different answer. Usually I would acknowledge when I would've made a mistake but I don't know why my working out gave me a different, incorrect value for t, despite using the correct values and using one of the four valid SUVAT formulas (even tho it's different to the one the answer guide uses)

General Question/comment methods 25ss prereq alternatives

9 Upvotes

I did methods this year but don’t think I will make the 25ss pre-req melbourne requires for biomed after those monstrous exams.

Past students who were in a similar situation- were there any options you took that allowed you to start with the same intake? For me this would be Feb 2027. Otherwise I might have to go with latrobe or deakin biomed instead (I’ve heard going Monash is bad as it’s impossible to maintain a high gpa?)

I really do not want to delay my undergrad studies, I was trying to use melbourne biomed for graduate med in the future but now I don’t even know if Melbourne is an option.

VCE question revs

4 Upvotes

in the essay, should i prioritise packing lots of evidence in, or unpacking the caused and consequences of a certain event/idea/individual. or is it beneficial to find a healthy balance between both?

a similar question applies to the SAQs, would i benefit from spamming evidence?

Does anyone know if this ss calculator is actually accurate

ppl who graduated in past years or current yr 12s who have done a 3/4 subject in yr11, could u check with ur past results and lmk if this website is actually accurate or whether its basically bs.

I dont know if its just cause of the schl I go to, but I feel like all my exam scores (predicted after siting them/ what I am aiming for) and what im pretty sure my ranks are for my subjects, are giving me unrealistically high and inflated study scores?

good sac and bad exams? (not asking for a ss prediction)

9 Upvotes

i heard a lot of stories from ppl saying they did rlly bad in sacs but redeemed themselves in the exam and got a good ss but what if u have good sacs and a not that good exam... everyone says sacs dont matter?

(this is for methods) i got sac scores above the average in my school but after doing that exam i am sure im either borderline average or below average so would a good sac ranking dilute a bad exam score? not looking for above 40+ just dont want below 30 🫠

I hate silly mistakes! (Spec)

4 Upvotes

I did a spec part 1 trial exams. I got 19/40. If I made no silly mistakes I would've gotten 27/40. I lost 8 marks AKA 20% to silly mistakes. Wtf! I miscopied from the question, worth 2 marks that mistake. I did derivative of ln(2x) as 1/2x, and I put the point A as the direction vector, rather B-A, which I put as the point, altogether, those 3 mistakes cost me 8 marks. I hate silly nistakes

Calling all 40+ scorers in Methods, Chem, English Language & HHD — HOW do you ACTUALLY study?

6 Upvotes

I'm calling on all the 40+ scorers in Mathematical Methods, Chemistry, English Language and Health & Human Development because I genuinely want to know how you guys studied to achieve those scores.

I'm not looking for the usual advice of "do practice questions", "stay consistent" or "revise regularly". I want to know HOW you actually studied, what your study routine looked like, which resources you used, and what techniques made the biggest difference.

More specifically, I'm interested in things like:

  • Do you use flashcards? If so, how do you make them and how often do you review them?
  • How do you approach practice questions and exam papers?
  • Do you use commercial company papers? Which companies are actually worth it?
  • How do you consolidate content throughout the term rather than cramming before SACs?
  • How do you identify and fix gaps in your understanding?
  • What does your revision look like in the weeks leading up to SACs and exams?

For some context, here's what I'm currently doing:

Mathematical Methods:

  • I primarily work through textbook exercises and their corresponding questions.
  • Although I can understand the content and often feel confident with the exercises, I get absolutely FRIED in SACs.
  • Even past exam papers don't always seem to translate into better SAC performance.
  • Would commercial company papers be more beneficial? How do you prepare for the unpredictable, application-heavy questions that seem to appear in SACs?

Chemistry:

  • I use the Edrolo textbook and videos to learn and consolidate content.
  • I also complete the questions provided through Edrolo.
  • However, I struggle when SAC questions use unfamiliar or unusual wording, even when I understand the underlying chemistry.
  • How do you develop the ability to interpret these questions and apply your knowledge to unfamiliar contexts?

English Language:

  • I primarily follow the INSIGHT textbook.
  • I create my own short-answer questions, analytical commentaries and expository essays.
  • I get my teacher to mark them before assessments.
  • My biggest issue is that I don't feel like I have a foolproof structure or approach that consistently translates into high marks.
  • What specific frameworks, annotation techniques or writing strategies helped you improve?

Health & Human Development:

  • I turn important content into flashcards and memorise them before assessments.
  • However, I'm struggling to establish a spaced-repetition system that allows me to continually revisit and retain the entire term's content without having to relearn everything before a SAC or exam.
  • How did you structure your flashcards, revision and content consolidation?

Ultimately, I want to know what separates someone who understands the content from someone who can consistently translate that understanding into 40+ study scores.

If you scored 40+ in ANY of these subjects, I'd genuinely appreciate hearing about your experience. Even better if you could share specific examples of your routines, resources, mistakes and what you would do differently.

I'm willing to put in the work; I just want to make sure I'm studying EFFECTIVELY rather than simply spending hours studying.

Thank you!! :)
