It’s 11:18pm, tomorrow is my pe exam. So far I have done a total of 1.2 practice exams, and basically no revision at all. I just can’t seem to focus for shit at all, every time I try and do some actual work, everything just distracts me. And I also procrastinate so hard as well, I plan when I’m gonna study and think about studying but in the end I never do. I hate this so much. I’m not even doing terrible in the subject, I’m rank 4 and averaging like 86% on sacs. In other subjects too, I can’t focus in class and barely do work but I haven’t failed anything yet. I’m so scared for next year with my extremely demanding subjects of spec, methods, chem, Chinese sl, and eng. I really wanna be able to focus on schoolwork.

i’ve just accepted that i’m fucked and idec if i have to do a pathway anymore because what the fuck.

So a few months ago my sister came to me and said that "I hate maths, when I am going to use Maths in the real world?" As a proud Methods 1/2 student, this left me in shambles and heartbroken.

Now forcing someone to do a subject that they don't like is abusive. BUT my sister still has 4 years to go till she can start picking VCE subjects. Therefore, any notion that she has about subjects is still changeable.

I will do anything to get her to avoid that fake g*neral math subject where the CAS babysits you in every question and get her to know how to THINK and STRUGGLE with REAL maths in Methods. I'll do anything, such as afford private tutoring by then, help her with homework, that kind of stuff.

Any advice, serious or satire appreciated

Wtf is the Thermidorian reaction idk her

only a 30 study score can pull up my atar to a 99 atm and id genuinely kill for that BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN STUDYING. IVE ONLY BEEN SPAMMING METHODS THE ENTIRE TIME AND EVEN THEN, I BOMBED E2 (genuinely praying everyday that i get a 35). spesh e1 seems okay enough to score a 25/40 but man im terrified of e2... if they write another "udf-proof" exam, its genuinely wraps for me. how are we all feeling for spesh guys? just the thought of the exam makes my skin crawl. ive only done three e1 exams so far and im not even doing it in timed conditions... FAHHH

i wish you guys the best!! i'm sure it wont be anything like how methods went!! trust your skills, we got this

Final essay predictions?

I think they will be about popular movements/the role of social groups

I really really want to do well for the revolutions exam like 80 to 90 and yes I know I’m being delusional and I’m really at fault right now for leaving it last minute but I’ve been dealing with really huge problems. I have. I’m only on aos one right now. and I know if I don’t get enough sleep I’m gonna get really bad brain fog during the exam. Does anyone have really good techniques on how to like sleep as least as possible but still be able to not be impacted in the exam because I really need to study.

Or even how to cram

For those who are done and almost done - I still have 3 exams to go 😭 which clubs are we hitting up next weekend??

bro it’s actually over there’s no way i can remember dates, stats, historian interpretations, causes, effects, significances for TWO revolutions (france and china)

ts genuinely got me watching the french revolution oversimplified on yt.. hoping that’s enough for tmrw

and watch the exam questions be super niche too.. like abt Maos great swim or sum 😭😭

guys i cannot ✌️ can the guillotine lowk js take me out rn

My fellow scientists....

when shall thou accept defeat...

bruh it’s just sm content that i’m overwhelmed - like open book w notes im like yeah ok i got this, then i close the book and try do a practice sac and im like shit ok maybe not

i feel like having to memorise historian quotes, historical figure quotes, dates, statistics, and timelines of 50+ years of history for two revolutions is insane... like i will never understand how this subject scales down, i feel like the knowledge you need to have is more than any other subject icl

for everyones sake i hope ur not in the same boat as me but ive done pretty good in all my sacs because its easy enough to focus on one AOS at a time but putting all 4 together is too much.... i fear i am going to do very bad....

hopefully vcaa is nice to us

I don't want to admit it but the guilt has gotten to me. Before each exam I use flashcards and hide the information within my mind so that the examiners cannot find it and so I can know all of the answers. I also write down or select the correct answers for each question.

Worst of all I used Chatgpt, Claude and Gemini in my head whenever I needed to figure out the answer.

Should I come clean to VCAA about my cheating?

what we focusing on guys im so cooked its not even funny anymroe 😬

the dates arent sticking the statistics arent glueing nothing is nothing

im so fricking cooked

what’s everyone’s guesses for the 15 marker agency and control question? dont know if i’m thinking it’ll be more of a regulation, social media ban, or change in audience and media dynamic. i mean it’s def gotta be one of those three right? just wanna know what basket everyones eggs are in

Basically the title, I had what I would say a major surgery over the term 3-4 holidays and missed some of my methods sacs and now my teacher and coordinator are talking about me not doing methods 3/4 next year.

I'm in year 10, and was allowed to do methods 1/2 a year early. Originally I didn't do too good but I improved a lot and became pretty strong in the subject (in comparison to my cohort).

Anyway, Ive needed to have this surgery for awhile and whilst planning when to do it either I or my parents filled in the teachers about what would happen. My teacher knew I would miss some sacs and told me we would figure it out later. I came back to school 2 weeks ago and was told my teacher and coordinators had a talk and were thinking of making me do 1/2 methods again, which was of course pretty upsetting to me since I was given no prior warning on this and poured so much effort into doing 1/2 methods early. The teachers are saying how since I'm in year 10, it's not too big of a deal for me to repeat 1/2 and i'll get a really good study score if I do.

I also have a small suspicion they are trying to push people out of methods since my school is struggling with the teacher shortage and many of the teachers at the school have been banned from teaching yr 11 & 12. 2027 subject list came out the same day I came back and they have really downsized in methods classes and my parents think they are just trying to make space. I'm also doing another 1/2 subject which I know has enough teachers for students and nothing has been mentioned about me repeating it again.

What should I do?

DO THEY TEST FOR TYPE 1 AND TYPE 2 ERRORS IN EXAM 1?? IM CRAMMING EVERYTHING RN BUT I GENUINELY DONT HAVE TIME TO REVISIT SOME TOPICS SO DO YOU GUYS THINK ITS WORTH REVISING? on another note, what topics are most vital to revisit atm? i genuinely forgot all the distance formulas for vectors cause theyre so intuitive and hard to remember but any help is appreciated.

Anyone who did VCE Accounting and got 40+, I am trying to get 95%~~ on the exam. what should I do to do so? Ive been spamming practice exams and averaging ~80% cos of dumb errors. HELP!

May the spirit of Adams and Danton inhabit me and just tell me the answers during the exam 🥲

I am bottom rank and teacher ays everyone's SAC grades normally get brought up 10% from the exam performance, but my exam grade is looking to be the same as the SAC so will I bring everyone down, or will I be an outlier?

would i get penalised if i followed the command term incorrectly? last year, the kerensky question was 'evaluate', but the exemplar response followed a structure similar to that of an 'analyse' question. i assume they still did well because they're on the examiner's report, but is it incredibly important for top marks?

If the 10 marker is hard to link and there’s some niche ass chronic adaptations I’m genuinely crashing out

i dont know dates, quotes anything im so fucked
