its even more hellish when you combine it with other content heavy subjects and try and memorise those all in the span of a week erghaerkjghaerntg my business exam is right after my English then after my business is biology... and its next week... and i cant name a single operations strategy haha im soo cooked

folks this is why you dont try and cram a whole years of content into memorising within 2 weeks

put ur syllabus on your phone like on an app called 'Knowt' its free no ads its like quiizlet premium free and literally read it whenever and wherever. ESPECIALLY before bed. before bed maybe read a dot point and read it like 10 times the go to bed and it will stick really well in your head. the trick is to try to fit study of the syllabus everywhere like maybe in the car or bus, on the bathroom stick it up and read it whenever you are doing the do.

Wow how did you do trials already i guess it was on less content? do you not have any more assessments until final hsc then?

my school lowkey sucks, we did our trials on whatever we learnt the previous 3 terms. we have a few assignments from certain subjects that we will do tho, like eng, but for math std we finished all the content, so term 4 is just revision for the subject!

 

[elliott07]

for marketing honestly just memorise the 7ps like one strategy for each and pray

operations is the most scuffed topic of them all. may it burn.

creating a really generic essay like im talking maybe an intro memorised with good quotes context analysis memorised and just practice it with a lot of different questions possible really

Would a memorised intro kinda be red hot tho? Or just make topic / link statements adapted

To be honest at least for me memorising a base intro and putting in brackets where I would link to questions helps a lot or memorising like intro statements but it all really depends on how you work. some people can memorise whole essays and some people can do better if they just memorise a plan but really you just need to keep doing practice questions on them.

 

[elliott07]

imo making topic sentences/thesis statements and adapting it to the question is much easier than memorising an intro

true. to be fair, I think if you wanna memorise an intro its prob most suited for a module B essay because they are similar questions every year

I do think for common module and module A you're better off making topic sentences and thesis statement then adapting

then for module c I think its a good idea to have at least a general idea of what kind of a piece ur gonna write while making a reflection plan of like your choices of motifs extended metaphors etc...

but yeah I couldn't imagine me memorising 3000+ words and regurgitating it word for word AND adapting it to the question no way
