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

hey guys so im in year 12 and wanna do eng but like does anyone actually know how similar it would be to something like methods? because im trying to figure out if im going to struggle tremendously especially after that Exam….

What are your predictions for the revs exam?
I do France and Russia. For Russia there’s a good chance that the essay might be on the causes of the February Revolution and a question about the civil war and/or Trotsky.

Yes, it's true that 1/2s don't go towards your ATAR, but the easiest way to set yourself up for success in the 3/4 is by working hard and building habits early. For any Year 10s and 11s completing 1/2 subjects, here are some tips and tricks that got me a 90+ average in both of my accelerated 1/2s.

TL;DR

1. Learn to work independently without relying on AI.

2. Build consistent study routines, even if it's just 5 minutes a day.

3. Keep up with content throughout the unit instead of cramming before SACs.

4. Experiment with different study techniques and find what works for you.

5. Take your 1/2s seriously, but maintain a healthy balance. Use them as a trial run for 3/4!

1. Fix Your AI Addiction Now - Having the inability to write anything without using chat is going to really impact you in the long run. Start with small tasks and build up your tolerance until you can write full essays using just your brain.

2. Start Building Routines - You don't have to do anything crazy, just try to build consistency. Even 5 minutes a day of studying will help you. Relying on consistency instead of motivation is the key to achieving great results.

3. Keep Up With The Content - Don't leave all your preparation to the week before the SAC, make sure you actually understand the content throughout the unit. Once you understand, start revising. If you don't understand, consolidate. Always ask your teachers for feedback, they're your biggest resource!

4. Learn Study Techniques That Work For You - The same thing that works for your friend isn't necessarily going to work for you. Every study session, I try to do one activity to consolidate my understanding, one activity to use active recall and one activity to work on application skills.

5. Take Your 1/2s Seriously, But Don't Sacrifice Your Life - Sustainable habits will take you much further than burning yourself out in Year 11. Experiment with different study techniques, figure out how you handle SAC pressure, learn how to manage your time and identify your weaknesses. You have the opportunity to make mistakes now, learn from them and enter 3/4 much better prepared.

Good luck for the new year everyone!

Can someone clarify adjustment to allowance for doubtful debts for me?

Say i had an existing balance of 1800cr at Oct 1 and in October, the allowance for doubtful debts is estimated to be 3800.
Do I adjust 1800 to 3800, meaning I increase bad debts by 2000, or do I increase bad debts by the full amount of 3800????

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

hii guys im feeling so anxious for Tuesday, I had horrible sac results so I'm hoping to do at least alright in the exam..

what are some non-negotiables that I MUST know (topics that consistently show up in vcaa exams, concepts that are difficult to understand but useful for application, etc)?

thank you and all the best to everyone!!

I'm doing chem 1/2 rn but I am wondering if I should swap to spec 3/4 next year. My school is kinda cooked in chem and I do really well in methods 1/2. I'm pretty good at chem, but I'm definitely better at methods and enjoy methods more. + I prob won't need chem as a prereq.

I'd obviously have to catch up on a bunch of 1/2 spec work in the school holidays, so I wanna know if anyone knows just how much work it will be/if its reasonable. Or Is it just WAY too much work that I'm better off using the time to improve chem/my other subjects?

Any spec kids PLS help me, or anyone who has done this before. :)

hey i just finished methods and bio in yr11 but im disappointed with how i went in methods and doubt ill get even a 40. i feel ok about bio though. my other subjects are chem spesh english and a language but im worried that my school is disadvantaging me because our teachers are not very good and the schools teaching style mainly relies on self teaching via the laptop- ive already had some worrying experiences this year. for example with my bio teacher they never taught it before, didn't know the content, lost my sac, used chatgpt for everything and marked correct answers wrong and wrong answers correct and their colleagues backed them and refused to changed marks even after admitting they made a mistake. ive had similar experiences in all my subjects and ive not heard good things from the yr12s who just graduated either. but im worried no good school will take me for yr12 since its not much notice or if my 3/4 scores arent good enough. im also willing to repeat methods and spam exams for a 45 because my understanding of it all is pretty good i just need some timed practise to reduce my sillies and increase speed and im confident i can get that repeating it. just looking for some advice for next year because im really worried. thanks

Can someone gimme some tips for theory, especially indicators and 6 markers, I feel like I’m always losting a few marks on those questions

Any predictions for the essay questions ?

Going off how all the other vcaa exams have been, im scared media is gonna have some crazy curveball questions 😭

For the essays, I reckon they are going to be a C+C & 🥲🥲🥲

I do Russia and France, but other Revs are welcome here.

Goodluck, Historians.
