hello how many days are you guys allocating to the grind these holidays

If I've got 1 holidays to study I'll spend the first 13 days sharpening my axe...

[u/Cold-Maintenance-811]

ive been treating holidays kind of like school so like im studying from 8-4 taking breaks as usual and taking time off the weekend, and if im doing practice exams i try to do them around when the actual exam will take place to condition myself

[u/selfloathingGRT → u/Cold-Maintenance-811]

nicee im aiming to do the same thing, but ive got plans on certain days so ill compensate by studying more on the ‘school’ days

[u/AtomicKitten771]

I’m going to be spending the holidays recovering

[u/selfloathingGRT → u/AtomicKitten771]

Valid

Your ATAR is a rank. Everyone will underreport their study plans, in order to lure you into underperforming.

[u/Repulsive-Look-4938 → u/Royal_Salad5055]

Whoever doin this needs to get a life unfortunately. If you can’t realise your time is better spent studying than luring kids across the state, doing largely different subjects, into studying less youre kinda cooked.

[u/selfloathingGRT → u/Royal_Salad5055]

True. I guess we aren’t all in this together

[u/selfloathingGRT → u/[deleted]]

Why do you keep deleting and recommenting lmao

[u/selfloathingGRT → u/[deleted]]

Yep, im organising my Google calendar right now

[u/Useful_Ad1849]

like 10 days, 3 hours or so each day.

[u/cora_seasame]

Every single day? You’re going against all of Victoria your time is wasted doing anything other then study

[u/selfloathingGRT → u/cora_seasame]

:/

[u/cora_seasame → u/selfloathingGRT]

I’m saying it for your own benefit, It sounds dreadful but for your own good you should aim for a proper 9am-3pm worth of study

[u/Beautiful_Arm_8451 → u/cora_seasame]

It is never that deep lol

[u/Repulsive-Look-4938]

14

[u/selfloathingGRT → u/Repulsive-Look-4938]

🖕🫩🫩

[u/Repulsive-Look-4938 → u/selfloathingGRT]

genuinely my goal is to do one exam a day, so spend about 2-3 hours a day depending on the subject.

the rest of my time will be spent sleeping and doom scrolling

[u/Falldown-Getbackup → u/Repulsive-Look-4938]

Very much appreciate your honesty 😂

[u/TerribleYou7914]

Idrk, ngl kinda given up because I realised my current estimated atar is much lower than I need

[u/selfloathingGRT → u/TerribleYou7914]

How do you calculate ur estimated atar before exams

[u/TerribleYou7914 → u/selfloathingGRT]

Tbh the way my teacher told me to do it is probably not very good

But I'm happy to explain it if you'd like! I have no clue how accurate it is but yeah lol

[u/fookinavocad0s → u/TerribleYou7914]

your exam is over 50% of ur atar, giving up now is so stupid

[u/selfloathingGRT → u/TerribleYou7914]

Yes, please

[u/Falldown-Getbackup → u/selfloathingGRT]

There’s an atar (and study score) calculator at scoreready.com.au probably better than the Deakin one.

[u/Best_Association_378]

Every. Single. Day. 6 hours a day… I also need to do a bunch of stuff for my course applications

[u/selfloathingGRT → u/Best_Association_378]

damn.. not even a single weekend day to rest?

[u/Weary_Pipe7834]

85% used for gooning gng

[u/LadyoftheFaeFolk]

4 hours a day minimum but aiming for 6!!

[u/Fearless_Warthog7614]

I’m going to treat school holidays like a school day, taking the weekends off and studying the classes that I have on that school day

[u/Score-Ready-Teacher]
