how you burnt out alrdy bruh 😭😭😭 I'm in last week of hsc and I'm only feeling it now 💀💀💀
Because the subjects you indicate you’re doing in your post signature are viewed as the ‘easy’ subjects (apart from EA). Perhaps it may be different for people doing a combination like EA, MX2, Bio, Physics and Chem lol.

I think you should take a break and focus on some of your hobbies as well. Do something you enjoy doing even if it is for 15 mins, ik it's easier said than done but studying should not be the only thing you do in a day. Write down how you feel, maybe this burn out could be an indication of a different problem you're not acknowledging yet. Don't bottle up how you feel most importantly!!!!! that's always a bad idea

Your subjects are crazy I don't blame you 😭 tbh my best advice is stay surrounded by people especially those doing the same subjects as you. It's good emotional support and it'll make you feel less stressed. But talk about other things besides school and make time for your own interests. Good luck with year 12 I'm sure everything will work out you still have so much time😊

Honestly I'm feeling it too, but I think it's because there have been so many expectations leading up to Yr 12. When you actually think about it, the work isn't all that different from Yr 11. I think it just takes some time to get used to

Don't think scaling will be your friend mate
From this information, you seem to be currently on track with an ATAR in the low 80s range. More specifically, that would be an ATAR between 81.5 and 83.
Nahh you talk about difficult subjects and allat and this is where your sitting 💀 💀 💀 edit: I don't care much about atar but you can't talk about scaling not being my friend when your doing "harder subjects" according to you and it doesn't pay off.

i'm like 4 weeks into hsc content and i'm already burnt out, what do you guys do when you think you're burnt out bc nothing seems to be working!!!
make sure youre getting 8 hours of sleep. set an actual time for you to stop studying; eg, start at 3 finish at 7. once you finish studying for the ngiht make sure youre actually doing something you enjoy, dont just scroll on social media youre not going to have fun doing that. try do a hobby you enjoy; draw, write (no school related writing), make something, etc. if youre working consider decreasing ur hours. taking breaks on weekends also helps a lot

That’s my old ATAR estimate and you know it mate, before the HSC exams. You can check the same thread bro. At least I’m eligible for a state rank, are you?

Also, **you’re
