HSC - massive anticlimax? (3 Viewers)

[pete000]

WTF .... it's not even a big deal. If you don't get the atar you wan't get over it and do something worth while or just cop a root and you won't be stressed

Hey guys,

I've really found the entire HSC experience to be completely anti-climatic.
My entire life there's been so much build up around it, and now that I'm here and sitting the exams, it's not as hard as I thought it would be.
I'm finding it completely do-able, and hardly studying at all.
Which is really strange for me because I've been manic most of the year. I thought I'd be a complete psycho right about this time of year, but I've really surprised myself.

Just wondering how many of you feel the same?

Yes! I feel the exact same.. the HSC is overrated. I've been relaxing and carefree so much during these past few weeks.

100% A+ right on, couldn't of said it better myself

COULDN'T HAVE* - and I thought I'd never find such grammatical error here.

 

[bored of sc]

HSC.....?
Where?

Oh yeh it's on right now
and for some reason, care factor = 0

I pretty much agree 100 percent in terms of the gradual decline in motivation.
Whats funny though is I'm studying more now than I did all year only to make up for what I didn't do - but I could still be studying HEAPS more

And I am in denial but it's pretty much for certain my dream ATAR won;t be achieved - and I thought I would be devastated but I've accepted it - even though I haven't even seen my results OR finished all my exams.

I feel exactly the same. The best thing about it is how much personal sanity I have.

all year i have been working so hard, so motivated by HSC EXAMS that i WILL GET 95 in for EVERYTHING

and after english, i my mind went fuck that.

we have been doing HSC for over 365 days now... how fucked it that.

god. someone give me motivation i have two big exams coming up
kill me.

According to ATAR calculators, the two subjects I have coming up (Chemistry + Economics) will be major determinants of my ATAR. I'm in the same boat as you, genuinely cannot muster the motivation to do anything.

[Fluorescent]

SDD in 2 days
It's one of the major subjects that will contribute to me getting into my course along with maths and IPT

I screwed up maths, screwed up IPT.....and I will be screwing up SDD
Why? Motivation to study = 0

yeee, i always told myself, IM GONNA STUDY SUPER HARD IN YEAR 12 AND GET 100 UAI (back then) lolz, then i got to year 11 term 4 (yr 12) i was like yeee lets get it on! and i did beta than i usually did in yr 11 and the rest of the years. but then i just got supppper lax and didnt care and just cram for every exam like a few days b4 haha, probably bad habits from yr 7 to yr 11, but meh

For me, the weirdest thing has been that every time i finish an exam, i'm forced to think "And this is all that remains of the last 12 months of my life... what a WASTE!!!"

 

[d3vilz]

HSC is and was and always will be gay
Especially English

this

at the beginning of term 4, i was like: "im full gonna study hard, etc...."
i messed up a few of my half yearlies, "it's not that bad, i'm full gonna study hard...."
the July holidays came and i wasted it, did pretty shit in the trials, after that i lost motivation

 

[SmileyFacedTash]

I remember the first english HSC and i was so scared about it and chem my hardest subject came and i was just sitting in the exam thinking about what was going to come on tv that night.....the HSC has been the biggest anticlimax........and apart from maths which i completely stiffed up i went alright in all my subjects.....and the HSC isnt hard its bieng bothered to study which is hard......just history extension to go then its all over

 

[Brontozaurus]

YES. SO VERY YES. It's hyped so much...and it's not really that stressful. Of course, I did like eight hours of study a day for every week of the holidays (and successively less with every exam done), so it may be related to practice.
