Anyone else scared so much?
Until tonight, I haven't cared a bit and done like NO study as I felt pretty good about it all but now I'm packin it!
I can't breathe properly and am on tear verge scared. Not for my sakes but what ppl will think of my UAI mark.
I don't want to go to Uni, I want to study child care which doesn't need uni, so why am I so afraid?

Anyone got any tips for keeping calm??????

And for good study guides??

If you have done the work through the year then the study is only revising and once you see the work you should remember most of it. Listen to music, play a computer game go for a walk or something to relieve stress, i personally find sport and music relieving

Baby just relax, do some light exercise, take 10 deep breaths and put everything into perspective. In the end, its all for you and not for everyone else. Even if some people are disappointed/ridicule ur UAI mark, in the end just say "screw them", after a couple of months, whose gonna remember right?..
Anyway, this is your life, not anybody elses and if you dont need uni then don't stress out.
Nothing you can do now anyway but give it your best shot, itll all be over by next month, and think about it, there are like 56 000 other students doing the HSC, they are all scared shitless. Its completely normal.

Keep calm ye? xx.

I've spoken to a lot of uni students who say your UAI means next to nothing a month after the HSC happens. The fact that you don't want to go to uni just means you should be stressing even less :)

Try to remember that a lot of people are in the same boat in terms of being scared. Give yourself some time to relax tonight, and just think of the relief you're going to feel when its all over!

I was like that before the trials, complete breakdown (I didn't study for those either =|) but this time I'm not stressing. I'ma go to bed around 11 so I'm completely exhausted, take a chill pill and make sure I don't have a restless sleep. Get up early and revise. Pretty much all I can do at this point lol.
I'm not worried about the actual exams, the amount of effort I've put in, I deserve to do shit. But my parents will probably disown me when I get my UAI. That's the only thing I'm worried about. Dunno if I even WANT to go to uni, but according to them, I have to. Which is just awesome, rofl.

But don't stress. Go for a walk or watch some daytime tele. Then just do some light revision and you'll be fine. Half a herbal relaxant couldn't do any harm either I feel. Had quite a few of those around trials. Saved my butt =)
