What should you do now?

• Talk to your teachers and listen to their advice
• Aim at improving your marks from this report by an achievable amount for the Semester 2 report
• Work at focussed study vs comfort study
![Page 20: Yr 11 PT presentation 2017 - The Armidale School · 2020-03-26 · Changing Subjects •Must complete 12 units in Year 11 •Must complete >10 units in Yr 12 -- very good reasons](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050122/5f52776aa8f3bc4fbc5610d8/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
•Don’t leave it to the last minute
•Study timetables are worth it - stick to it within reason - break it for the things that count
•Look for “useable minutes”
•Look at Universities and Colleges over Christmas Break - go to open days this year because they are around the Trial HSC next year
•Work on your notes consistently - summary notes, dot points (Science, History, PDHPE)
Hints from Yr 12
![Page 21: Yr 11 PT presentation 2017 - The Armidale School · 2020-03-26 · Changing Subjects •Must complete 12 units in Year 11 •Must complete >10 units in Yr 12 -- very good reasons](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050122/5f52776aa8f3bc4fbc5610d8/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Hints from Yr 12
•English - start writing essays now - one every 1 or 2 weeks - hand them in - know your rubrics (syllabus)
•Major works - constant effort and start early
•You’ve got to work in the holidays - but have a good break because the rest of the holidays in the year become assessment focussed.
• Self-discipline is the hardest thing - and we haven’t found any solution. Make yourself accountable!
•Good sleep patterns are important.
