haha alright then mate. Just make sure you dont do yourself any long term damage, the hsc is a marathon mate, not a sprint.
Wouldn't believe how many times I have had to hear that. Cheers.

No worries champ. The HSC is not that bad, as long as you work consistently, you'll be fine, should never stress out about exams too much, if you've done the work u'll be fine and thats to the OP.

I've found all-nighters and hardcore cramming jacked up on caffeine works for me.

Also, try snorting Ritalin or Adderall, it's like cocaine but cheaper.

Sleep is good, yesterday I fell asleep because I was very tired from school. Only get about 4-5 hours sleep on weekdays.
I was exactly like you at this point during year 11, but then I kinda gave up and yeah, meh... shit happens. but yeah get 8 hours sleep atleast. During hsc I got about 6-8 hours easy, now during uni I get about 8-10 hours, I hibernate. :)

I like the long way. Never going to take the easy way out.
easy way done to perfection is a lot better than the long way done to perfection.

It's like programming, you can have 50 lines of code do the same amount of work as 200 lines of code, but obviously the 50 lines program with end up faster and more efficient using the computer's resources. The point is:

Study smart, not hard.
