Thanks for your support these past couple years Neel! Great work on your results and keep it up for the future!

Before!

@ How long before? Around what month should I start? How much content do I need to know before I start? Thx 😸

Also, how much content do I need to cover during summer holidays? Unit 3 for all subjects? Cheers 😽

Hey Jack! I printed out VCAA exams + photocopied/printed pages from my notes, and had it all bound at Officeworks

Thanks Jennifer! Agreed - lots of overlap!

Hey Viola, give this link a go: discord.gg/zFMCjyAg

That’s early! Let’s see what happens…

Nice job Arc, that’s a good sign

first of all , well done!!! second of all, if its possible for you to answer, are the question more personality-based as in "what's a difficult decision you had to make or are they more scenario-based as in " what would you do in this case??"

@@haniiifa.r yeah so, there more personal based, and like i had 1 situational based.

Great work! Glad to hear it Charles

😎

🥇

Get your head around what’s actually happening and look at the details of the scenario - the patient is 15 years old, we’re at a rural hospital, it’s very busy etc. and think about the impact they have on your decision-making Also thinking about what you would do in the situation (this is a common question and also helps with grasping the scenario)

My class in Yr 11 was mainly Yr 11s - maybe 15? And then three Yr 12s. I had Peckham.

@@DarrenTan21 so then the rest of the y11s were like in smaller groups in other classes??

The second scenario is right - you answer before they ask the next one

Yes 🌟

Enjoy! 👨‍🍳

Mine's today and I am watching this rn 😭

💪💪

Hey Arc! Medical students are not paid for placement (which includes night shifts)

⚡️

Thanks Kaimo! Chinese’s hard… You’ve got it tomorrow 👊

No worries!

Haha mocks are a practice run!

I think the creative is a bit different now, and in 2020 it wasn’t on the exam. The creative sac has existed for a while actually

It’s been a while since I’ve sat Chinese… but I mainly memorised evaluative or persuasive pieces: - mobile phone use - participating in extracurriculars - volunteering For personal ones : - introduce my friend - trip to China I did the exam chronologically (didn’t give it much thought) and we had translation then as well. I did both - pinyin was especially useful for writing something quickly but there’s a chance you forget what the word was meant to be.

Wow! Smash it y3l ⚡️

You’ve got this!

Hey Lukas, thanks for the support! A formal shirt is fine (that’s what I wore)

@@DarrenTan21Hello Darren

Quite a bit. My Chinese school held practice exams every week in the lead-up to the exam and I wrote a bit at home too. The essay is a tough section so I wanted to prepare more for it.

Vocab can help a bit, or a memorable anecdote/detail in your replies. Don’t need to change too much in the lead-up

Definitely possible! Keep on preparing

Not sure but I think poor exam performance can negate good sac scores (from experience)

‘Solid learning’ in the holidays for me means that you’d be fairly comfortable being assessed on that topic. I reckon textbook questions is enough because you can complete more prep with practice tests later.

@@DarrenTan21 Alright thanks for the advice 🙌

Thanks Potato! Yes sure I’ll note that down. I don’t have the a routine structure though, it changes with what I’m doing and feeling

I used Quizlet and that helped a lot. And then try using some of them in essays

Thanks Krishanth! Is that your detailed study topic? Have an idea of your structure for your answers (first you talk about this idea, and then this idea) but practice in all different scenarios is the best!

@@DarrenTan21 Yes, it is my topic. I would like to know how to answer spontaneous, and new questions. My teacher said that other than some common questions, most of them will be new.

@@KrishanthPradeepPandian I didn’t find too many of the questions in my detailed study were new - definitely brainstorm what they may ask and go to practices as well. Otherwise if they ask a new question take your time and sift through your knowledge of the topic. Don’t panic or be pressured into saying whatever!
