[killer queen]

fellow UCAT-ers, how's it going? for those who've done it, we feeling okay about our scores? for those who haven't, don't forget to take breaks, and it's totally fine if you've done less HSC study than others, we've got other things to do unfortunately :,)

stay strong folks!

 

[Study to success]

happy saturday (almost 1 week left until school starts)

How? Nooooooooo That’s crazy I feel like it’s been 2 days only

 

[C2H6O]

Bruh does anyone else get like a random pain when they start studying that makes it impossible to focus? Like every time???

Fr and then when I’m not studying like when I’m sleeping or smth I get a crazy motivation to lock in like life just ragebaiting me

everyone what atar calculator is the most accurate. I need an 85 desperately

the most accurate calculators are the wise moderators on BoS if given the right info (seriously though, UAC is the most accurate, although be careful what marks you're putting in because raws by no means equals scaled, scaling is a real complex process)

anyone got any chem resources -- prelim or hsc. pls pm me

Did anyone have any problem with gateway UNSW? I attached the wrong file and can't remove it now lol. lowk panicking now

In the webinar I did, after submitting they say that while it says you cannot remove it, they will only look at the most recent. So if you attach a new one you should be okay I think.

Ok so firstly, you have been doing stuff and studying for the UCAT is a very good defence

Now this probably isn't very helpful, but I find that sometimes the reason why you're locked out of studying is because there are too many goals, expectations and high stakes stacked on top of your head (which is totally fair since the HSC is less than 100 days away + trials are in a few weeks). If you're able to just see your work as individual tasks and don't link it to this whole stressful ordeal, it might just give you the momentum to start approaching things task by task. Of course, this is just a psychological trick and not that practical, but it's helped me get things done these holidays. And yeah, plan your tasks so that you can feel guilty when you're lagging behind on your to-do list

ahhh this is really helpful actually!! yes i find a lot of the time i avoid my work purely bc i know the stakes of the hsc like having to get such a high atar and so many exams etc but i will definitely try to think like this, i think it’ll help a lot!! thank you so much

 

[ManicPixie]

the hsc funnily enough is allegedly sooo much easier then our trials, sadly. like actually someone kill me i dont want to do this and sit in an exam for three hours

no bc the way my stomach is about to be RUMBLING in those exams. my last hsc exam (french cont) is on the second last day and finishes at 5pm i want my dinnerrrr

 

[coolcat6778]

also i legit spent like 40+ minutes total yesterday across the idk, like 9-10 hours of maths, ranting about the uselessness of this:
View attachment 48232

like whoever decided that they would format all their equations using this USELESS formula should go fuck themselves... idk if i should actually get into what i mean cuz i rlly gotta get back to intro to calc

you need to memorise this for extension 1

 

[Socialism]

you need to memorise this for extension 1

1. I don't do extension 1
And 2. I have memorised it which is why I can use my formula and not theirs

I know I'm feeding the ragebait here but
If you actually read the context and posts immediately following that, you'd know that,
Imo, once you know ASTC, and know the formulas for quads 1,2,3,4 THEN you can use my ones, because they rely on YOU to match the quadrant to the +/- and formula.

What I'm actually saying is, they shouldn't use their formula's in the questions later on, as it is misleading and adds extra steps. What I'm suggesting is eliminating the algebra so you can skip straight to the step where you do the working out. I.e instead of 180+theta it's actually x-180, since thats what you have to do anyway

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk
