Study vs homework.
I can't find out who's going to win most of my time....

Wow scotty g. Is that 4-5 hours of study a day I see?
Respectah.

I'm trying to be realistic about how much I will actually stick to, instead of saying I'll do. So its 1.5 hours of study plus homework a night (which I'll gradually learn to increase).
No no, it *would* be 4-5 hours of study a day, meaning if I got home at 4, i'd be studying until 9oclock without interruption.

And its not going to happen, I just can't find a study timetable to suit me yet.

Currently i've probably done about 2 and a half hours a day, on whatever subject I had that day - but not broken up evenly.

dont you think you'll 'burn out' before the hsc if you keep this up?
do you guys have tutors? i was thinking about getting one just for the sake of it since it seems like everyone else has tutors

Come to my maths tutoring if you're doing Ex1 or Ex2.

Anyway, how can you possible study more than 30/40 min per subject? Seriously, what is there to study? Its hard to get ahead an study the whole course early, and reading the same thing over just gets boring. In saying that, I read my new Eco textbook for an hour today.

Tutoring? No thanks. Not interested. Yeh it does make you work harder if there's someone around you.
Where is it anyway?

If I didn't have a tutor I would probably consider it, but I do :)

I only want you if you're xtreme. If you reckon you're 99+ [yes, in all seriousness] UAI material, then be my tutoring buddy. If you're not that type, dont bother. Unless you actually want to go to this specific tutor. See my thread in the tutoring forum.....cbf finding the url though.

Christ I'm making typo's in the most awkward places.

"on whatever subject*S*"

Two and a half hours per afternoon overall I was getting at :p.

I just havn't devised a way to fit all the study I want to get done within an afternoon yet. Say I might have 5 subjects on a Friday, and to do 50minutes of revision with a 10minute break, that's 5 hours of work if I apply it to each subject.

Really must draw up this study timetable today. ^^
