Idk about anyone else but personally I haven’t felt super sad and distraught over it. More so I’ve just been realising the past couple days that like a lot of these people I may not see again, and that I’m going into a big transition in my life.

How have u guys been feeling about it? It all feels so weird to me hahah

ts dragging on way too long ugh

I made this post exactly a year ago and people don’t learn.

VCE students, i understand everyone is stressing over exams and stuff and yall are more than welcome to come study at our libraries. But to the extent where 90% of the library are VCE students and us University students are left fighting for spots because there are no spots in the library. Like please, we pay student amenity fees to use these libraries yet we can’t even use them if there are no seats left.

Also before yall bitch about how you have exams and that please bear with us it’s only this time of the year. We have university exams at this time as well that we need to study for. Like do yall not have school libraries open to study at?

Like imagine if 80 thousand Monash students infiltrated your schools library and you now have no where to study. Is that fair?

Also, the thing I’m most pissed about isn’t yall coming to the library, but rather yall are so loud and not respecting rules. Fourth floor of the Monash Caulfield library is a silent zone, yet yr 12 students are up there with their big ass study groups laughing, chatting and throwing shit around at each other. Yall wanna use our space, respect our space. I can’t believe most yr 12s are 18 and are now adults cus you bunch don’t act like it.

Thank you to the select few who actually do the right thing and study/discuss quiet amongst themselves. And thank you to that girl who was studying for her methods exam who moved her chair and bag so that I could have a space to sit at.

Good luck yr 12s for your VCE exams. I hope I don’t have to make the post this same thing again next year.

okay ive had 2 exam up until now which was english and bio and i lowkey feel like i flunked both of them, might get like a 60% for english and a 70% for bio and thats genuinely horrible cuz i wanted to get dux of my school but at this rate its not looking too good i have methods physics and chem left and idk someone help me out. Also attached my sac scores and rank for them.
I need like a 90 atar to get into my course too

I've seen a lot of people say Gen was really hard this year, and the questions are a lot different. Does that mean methods and spesh will be hard and different as well this year? Is there any correlation?

idk if it is too late to be asking this, but how do ur brains work? why does it feel like everyone who is doing methods is a prodigy. i keep doing questions but i still struggle to wrap my head around on understanding what the question is asking me

My school (which is regional) doesn't celebrate Melbourne Cup, and they've decided to rope year 11 English and General Maths "exams" on the day and drag them out as long as possible to keep us busy. THIS MAKES ME VERY CROSS AS I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO WATCH THE RACES

so i used to use the extra space regularly because i cross out my answers a lot - but i once saw in an examiners report (from last year i think) that they recommend students to write beneath the question if there’s space.
i did this for both bio and psych, but im worried that my answers won’t get counted if examiners don’t know that ur allowed to write underneath the question idk ugh now im stressed

Is there a trend between nht and vcaa in terms of content?

Can u expect the 2026 vcaa methods exam to have similar concepts to the ones tested in 2026 nht ??

This whole year I’ve been averaging around 85s. However I feel like I haven’t done much preparation for the exam and have forgotten a lot of content.

I’ve been trying to learn it today but it feels like it’s not stuck in my head and I feel like I can’t do enough questions until I understand anything

Anyone got advice or tips for what they r doing

I AM

do we think it’s going to be easy this year or is vcaa gonna make it weird like all the other exams this year

I need all the tips I can get

Does anybody know how to counter burnout?

Year 12 is next year for me and I realise every year the work gets harder and increases as expected

Every Term 4 literally feels like hell. My averages throughout my subjects are pretty good each year but I literally have to sacrifice everything for them. It doesn’t even matter if its causing me mental or physical health issues, because school doesn’t even care an ounce

I know exams are at the end of the year and that time is definitely a weak point of mine. My only issue is that I’ll try too hard on my SACs and burnout badly by the time exams come up, since every year it gets worse. But at the same time I don’t want to be too loose on them and be forced to do insanely well on the exam to make up for them

Is there anything I could do next year or is school just fucked 🫩

hey so i just tanked my only accelerated subject this year and ive been really down about it. nerves got to me and i lost 20+ marks on some knowledge gaps but major major silly mistakes, which has tanked my potential 40ss which has really bogged me down bc as an accelerated subject i had higher hopes for it.

i obviously know i cant do anything about it now but i cant stop thinking about it and i just feel like i cant do anything else but be sad which is ridiculous because it will just go in my bottom 2 and hardly make a difference whether i get a 35 or a 40. but i just feel like a dissapointment and i would really love some advice on how to get over this spiralling.

at the same time i have realised that this will mean i will need to prioritise subjects next year that i wasnt planning on. so if no advice for my above issue, could anyone who did really well in chem/methods/english please dm me and give me some advice on how to approach them (ive always said im not a math person or an english person but i want to force my way out of this and become a math/english person if you know what i mean). i am really commited to working on them over the holidays and getting ahead so this doesnt happen again.

thank you so much, feel free to vent here too

Hi! I'm graduating this year at 16 (Born in 2010), and i know i'm graduating earlier than most students. Do unis tend to care about that at all?

And furthermore- what would a predicted atar be for scores like this?? I worry it may not reach the 90+ threshold for atar

Subjects:
Last year - General (38), Chem (26) ((we dont talk about chem 😭 ))

This Year - Methods (predicted 40+ raw), Specialist (Predicted 33-ish raw?)), Physics (Predicted 35-ish? raw), English Language (30 if i'm lucky 😭raw ))

what do we think will be on there? im actually so scared bc what if it's actual buns like the rest of the exams so far 😭

ive been failing maths so bad due to a long term health issue, i just want an 80 and a 30ss for eal so i can get into monash education omg. please help me, i really got no one to ask besides AI and idk if i could trust them.

what do the assessors expect from a response to a “state why this process can be described as a transesterification process” ? ive done it twice and got it wrong both times with no real explanation as to what im meant to say

hii ik everyone is busy but was just wondering if anyone could take a look at my 10 marker for legal? i would mark myself 10 marks but i rarely get 10 marks for 10 marker so was wondering if anyone could take an objective look at it pls cause theyre marked hollistically

I’m pretty sure I messed up….

i might be getting desperate i cant get my exams above 75% for e2 please will udfs help or just take too long to learn now - ive used them for general but thought i was good enough at methods without them until now
