This is my first blog ever and I intend to keep it running throughout my HSC year. I will try to keep this blog updated as frequently as possible. Before I start my blog I wish to tell you a bit about myself. I have the ultimate goal of becoming a doctor, thus the first stepping stone is getting a decent ATAR and UMAT score. I hope to study medicine at Monash, Adelaide or UNSW. Having just finished year 11, I am not the least bit happy with my marks, However year 12 is a clean slate. I will keep you guys posted on every aspect relating to my school life such as marks, ranks, exam thoughts, constructive criticism. Here are my current ranks after year 11 (these ranks have reset in year 12)
English ADV - 6X/10X
Mathematics - 5X/19X
Mathematics Extension 1 - 6X/10X
Chemistry - 7X/13X
Physics - 5X/10X
Now for those of you who wish to read a blog about a student who excels in every subject and aces every single exam, this is not the blog for you. This blog will hopefully show a student overcoming all odds and obstacles and achieve his dreams. If you don't like it then don't read it. Over the next 12 months I will post frequently and keep you guys updated on how my path into medicine is going.
Now without further ado.

Today is already week 3 of school and we have assessments in weeks 7-8, I am quite stressed as these are the first exams that will count for something towards the HSC which is why I have the ultimate goal of ranking single digits in at least 3/5 subjects. For the past three weeks I have changed my study habits alot, rather than being a lazy and finding excuses (like I was in year 11) I have genuinely tried to work harder. Here is my current daily routine
Weekdays
Come home and get relax until 4:30
Start work and try to finsih all my homework before 6:00 (which is dinner time)
After dinner (7:00) I write notes or revise what I do not understand from the days work until about 9:30.
Weekends
Wake up at about 9 and shower, eat breakfast etc etc until 10
Work for 3 hours (1 hour sessions with 10 minute breaks)
Take 1 hour lunch break until 2:00
Work for another 3 hours (1 hour sessions with 10 minute breaks) until 5
Depending on proximity to exams I will either take the rest of the day off to relax or study for 1 more hour (if it is within 4 weeks of exams)
Must get off now and study
signing off
