    2015ers Chit-Chat Thread

    I never got one. Half yearly estimates are kind of redundant anyway due to there being so much room for improvement. I went from a high 70's half yearly estimate to a low 90's post-trials estimate

    Stressed about General Maths

    Figure out what you are doing wrong and put things into perspective is all i can say. Don't just learn off the textbook, do past papers in timed conditions and ask your teacher to explain things that you don't know.

    Best way to finish notes during two week holidays?

    I partially agree with what Rhinoz is saying, but i don't recommend doing your notes on a time/efficiency orientated basis.

    Thoughts after half-yearlies.. :( +maths ext2! +your experience?

    While the half yearlies are a topic of discussion i'd like to direct everyone to this thread in the "General Discussion of the 2014 HSC" section. It helped me tremendously motivation wise and lets you put things into perspective on the chance that you get a bad result.

    what does this mean?

    I never encountered the need to use in text citations in highschool so i'd suggest that you directly consult with your teacher/co-ordinator before you go ahead and do that. In text citations is more of a university thing, at least from my personal experiences.

    Dropping advanced english good or bad idea?
