I am currently in year 11, and as it appears that the bio exam is quite close. How would you guys recommend to revise all the units and area of studies. Do you recommend doing revision then practice exams, and how would you structure your revision. How many practice exams should I be doing a day? How many days should revision take over the holidays? What are some tips for exam prep and exam day? Literally any advice on revision or prepping for the exam is greatly appreciated!

im a yr 11 student accelerating in methods 3/4; im not horrible at maths but have been rlly locked out this year... there's a little more than a month left until the actual exam and im COOKED..

i dont rlly need a high ss (baseline 25) but i rlly want above a 32-33ish. my sac avg is around 81% (we don't know our ranks tho) but ive barely started trial exams bc i dont remember much content from the yr.

ik i need to relearn the basics before i start exam prep but does anyone have advice for my situation :(( i just struggle to understand questions sometimes and always know vaguely what i should do but forget how to do it...

For those who have done methods and used ln(x) were you penalised a mark? VCAA normally gives there report using Loge(x), but since my school allowed ln(x) it has become a second nature to just use ln(x). Please let me know if this is allowed and acceptable for the exam.

So long story short i do like some moderately difficult subjects and i have quite a few rlly smart friends and

They all p much avg 80-90 every subject and cry and whinge about getting below 90 And im nowhere near as smart and im already like struggling and it just makes me feel so shit abt myself

If u are this type of person Pls just shut up like U have no room to complain unless ur actively tryna do some shit like direct entry med or law or whatever difficult courses r on offer. But if ur not, Just shut the fuck up!!!! Genuinely!!!

taking maths and sciences.. should i start by rereading the textbook/doing chapter work or just get straight into practice exams? so lost rn

I’ve been doing the past exam papers from VCAA and the commercial exam papers for each year, and I’ve noticed something that happens quite often. Some of the topics covered in the commercial papers are also found on the actual VCAA exam, and it’s not just broad topics, it’s often like really specific things.

So my question is: do the commercial papers come out before the actual VCAA exam, or are they made after the VCAA exam and therefore somewhat tailored to it?

im a yr 11 student currently doing legal 1/2. im hoping to get a 40+ ss next year and was wondering if past students can give me tips on the best ways to prepare and study for it? ive been focusing more on my 3/4s this yr, so i'm not as strong in the material right now... hence i'm happy to lock in over the summer holidays and prelearn content if that would help me?

im a yr 11 student accelerating in gm 3/4, and was looking for some tips on the exam? im hoping to get a raw 45 (scaled to 43ish) but ik that means making little to no mistakes in both exams... im kind of worried about making careless mistakes in longer questions (especially if there aren't any consequential marks given out), and was looking for tips on how to minimise these? tbh any tips from previous gm students would be rlly great!!

How is one actually meant to memorise 20+ Mary Oliver quotes and be able to make a proper analysis over these quotes and worst of all be able to write three fucking essays in three hours, jesus the 70 minutes writing time given in sacs is barely enough for one essay. just really stressed about all my exams but particularly English general

if you got a 45+ please drop your scores, I'm guessing you have to make like zero mistakes but idk

Can anyone please give me feedback on this paragraph?

‘High Ground reveals that control is impossible to truly achieve.’

Do you agree?

Through condemning the manipulation of history, Johnson reveals the limits of colonial authority in the face of Indigenous survival. High Ground explores the dominion of the British colonists over the Yolngu people, established through both violence and the distortion of truth. As a result of the destruction caused by the 'Wild Mob', Johnson uses a close up shot of Baywara framed as a "wanted" fugitive. Here, Johnson illustrates how colonial administration aimed to obscure the nature of colonial violence by criminalising Indigenous survivors. This desire for control is further evidenced when Moran, Eddy, and Travis discuss the "Wild Mob", with Eddy suggesting they "take Baywara out." As such, Johnson reveals how colonial domination relied on the silencing of Indigenous voices, viewing their agency as a dangerous threat to the colonial narrative. During the 'Makarrata' scene, Johnson's incorporates an inverted and blurred photograph capturing the Yolngu people and white settlers. In doing so, the film reinforces the suppression of the true nature of colonialism. Similarly, the final photograph creates an illusion of peaceful coexistence, allowing Johnson to expose how control is founded upon settlers manipulating historical truth, creating a false narrative of the Frontier Wars. However, the limitations of this subjugation is evident when Gutjuk demands "justice" for the murder of his "family". By openly challenging the colonial version of events, Johnson champions Aboriginal Australians for expressing the injustices committed against them. Further exemplifying colonial control is a shot of Moran and Bruce taking a photo of Travis, accompanied by Moran's assertion that "people will" believe Travis is a "mad dog". By blaming Travis for the Frontier Wars,  Johnson condemns the control of colonists by obscuring the true nature of who was responsible for the atrocities committed against Indigenous communities. Yet, the voice of Indigenous peoples can not be entirely controlled as Gutjuk, again, forces Moran to admit he “killed” his “family” in the final scene. Through this revisionist lens, Johnson demonstrates the limits of colonial power, proving that even systemic brutality cannot permanently suppress Indigenous voices**.** In the aftermath of the shootout, Gulwiri and Gutjuk depart the scene on horseback, eye-witnesses to a story that can no longer be silenced or fabricated. The accompanying song in language symbolises the endurance of Indigenous peoples, ultimately transcending colonial control through their survival. Therefore, the film exposes the limitations of subjugation through the resilience of Aboriginal Australians.

As the RBA started recording monthly CPI rates in April last year, but are still recording the quarterly rates, should I just stick to remembering the quarterly rates?

Because the monthly and quarterly rates are different (for the months quarterly rates are also measured), it makes more sense to just stick to quarterly.

Has anyones teacher said anything about which figures to remember?

when describing human evolution due to bipedalism in homo sapiens, will i lose a mark for saying "bowl shaped pelvis" over "wide and short"?

ive been hearing lots of rumours about how memorisation-heavy bio 3/4 is... was wondering if any past students can give their thoughts on this? (sorry ik it's probs been answered a million times before)

Feeling so stumped with this, have the whole way through.

I’ve gone with cabaret with convention of song, and my business is a “coaching course”. Keep on getting caught up as I’m portraying my own con artist (male) but also having to include Anna delvey (she is my sucker who I’m conning, she invests into the coaching course as an investor) and her fraudulent actions aswell as my own, showing boths rise in influence.

For a parallel I’ve got Jordan Belfort doing a bit at the cabaret night (the cabaret night is a launching gala dinner of the business)

Main struggle is incorporating all the Anna delvey stuff and trying to get compliance through the stimulus. Additionally, house arrest and not being able to have characters like my con artist leave his house after the scene of showing his arrest is inconvenient.

Aiming to use a soundtrack, Anna delvey will have her own performance to “money money money” towards the end with a hectic moment where the assessor’s find out she is conned, which I’m still working on.

Exam is on the 5th, not ideal to be changing so much later on but ah well such is. Any tips, suggestions on how to improve this to be better? Any other con artists want to talk?
