    How are you organising your work for year 12?

    What are your strongest subjects?

    I find that mind-mapping really helps me, as I learn and remember things quite well visually. What I do before an exam is have my prepared essay (or whatever) and for each idea/concept/theme/etc. I do an individual mind map, and branching off from it I have not only techniques and analysis, but...

    What are your strongest subjects?

    Also want to add: vocabulary is only useful if you have control over it. A few carefully chosen, specific words in an essay can turn an idea your presenting from being average to being fantastic.

    Keep or drop ext eng?

    I have the same mixed feelings about EE1 - the content can get a little monotonous and I don't like my teacher's style where she expects us to figure out everything on our own with basically no help. My class is a combination of strong english students and a few bad eggs, but there's only about...

    Post your subject regrets

    I regret doing Chemistry - a combination of overestimating my own ability and choosing to ignore my school's obvious strengths in humanities over sciences. Wish I was doing Vis Art or a history instead. Oh well.
