just wanted to ask the older cohorts, how many days did you take off after trials to recharge before the grind for the hsc exams?

max do 1 tho imo. Like this is one shot and that extra 5-10 mins could mean the difference between a 90 or a 89.95

imo its good to carry the momentum to an extent, so i prob wouldn't stop doing anything at all. but from memory you'll have a couple weeks until the end of the term, so if u just wait until the holidays to start grinding thats a good idea

I'd do 1 week like someone else said. I personally don't think its reasonable to keep going without risking burn-out. But don't go much longer than 7 days because you run the risk of losing motivation / momentum.

in 2019 I took like a week off and then went straight back into it
in 2020 pretty sure I took maybe a couple weeks, some light study meanwhile but not proper

well I guess if you had studied well and performed well in trials I don't see why its too much of a problem because trials are basically the HSC
but there’s no benefit to not studying much like you’re better off having more preparation
