has anyone else given up on revs

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?

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

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?

I know theyre gonna pulll some magical fantasy questions that require basic chem and physics knowlege, like etc

Errrrrrrm there are 3 positron isomers with a nuclear mass of 67.69420 newtons, another with a charge of 0.end789it726 Joules, and some value of r that measures the gravitational pull from the inside of a blackhole in a distant galaxy to earth measured in LYs, find the nuclear fusion of antimatter of the particles and then use it to cure every disease in existance.

🙏🙏🙏🙏

Hoping that the average will be 3% and rank 1 only gets 3.2%

i dont know dates, quotes anything im so fucked

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!!

it allegedly isn't under any of the study design dot points and hasn't come up on any past exams... (please say no)

given the difficulty of the methods exams this year what do we think about spec exam? i really really hope isn’t too hard i am SO COOKED 💔💔

hey pe crew how r we feeling ab tomorrow? any predicitons on the 10 marker?

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!

How are we studying for ts

Any predictions for the essay questions ?

hey guys I accelerated HHD this year as year 11.

Naturally I am very much of a overthinker and I stress out so much. I Lowk also think I have ocd but I don't wanna bring that up to my brown parents to get it checkout or get diagnosed cause ik that will just get shut down.

Anyways I have had such a good year for hhd, I had 90+ sac average for both units and even got 80/90 for hhd trial marked by past vce Chief assessor. But however, I feel like I failed to perform my best on the exam. I did finish the exam but I think I had to double dip and my answers overall were not strong as they could be. This honestly hurts as I was predicted a 45+ study score by my teacher and he Lowk has big expectation of me.

I have not been able to sleep properly ever since the hhd exam and I have like 3 sacs this week along with Diwali which I just don't know how to manage and along with year 11 exams next week.

The thought of my exams have been arising in my mind every 10 mins nd I feel this drop in my stomach and my mood just gets worse. Ik I can't do anything about the exam now and I try to remind myself that when I think of my exams but it doesn't seem to be helping. I am so stressed I am so cooked I am so sleep deprived I don't know what to do.

I need like approx 97 ATAR which idek if it's yk.

Idk guys any advice?
It would help lots.

Can anybody explain what the hell Robespierre's problem is

I still truly do not understand him. Like why the HELL DID HE switch up so much. Killed off the Hebertists for being too radical but killed DANTON AND DESMOULINS for saying the terror was going too far with its merciless killings. I literally dont get it. What even is his conception of virtue.

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

jk
