I see. Well, best of luck for the other exams. Fingers crossed they cover everything that you're revising for

FinFin-3rdYearUni well i don’t do biology but apparently that had content out of the scope of the study design (and as i am aware, the function of a golgi apparatus is not in the study design, let alone worth 3 marks).
the general maths exam 1 was quite easy in my opinion, only managed to get 3 questions incorrect (circled my answers in the question book and used maffsguru solutions), but a lot of people did struggle due to the tedious nature of questions.

      FH Explaining the function of the golgi apparatus would probably be in the study design, and possibly covered in Unit 1 or 2, but I agree, it shouldn't be a 3 mark question. I would have expected it to be a multiple choice question, maybe

        FH to add onto this, psych was also horrendous !! gen 2 was fun ngl

            FH psych was so weird, it like wasn't entirely awful imo but so many of those questions were worded in such strange ways?

              Short update:
              I'm done VCE exams and I cried a bit while driving to the libary (cramming for my HES exam in Melbourne tommorow).
              Mum bought me a surprise cake yesterday (I proceeded to eat 3/4 of it in one sitting... not the first time in the last month either.... oops) and I'm getting takeaway tonight. Plus tommorow night I'm going to an 18+ marvel parody show in Melbourne and having dinner + drinks with a couple friends which should be good.
              I haven't broken down properly yet but it's so strange to think that when I get home and take off my uniform tonight I'll never have to put it on again.
              Anyways signing off for now until I start sobbing in the library because if I keep thinking about this I will.
              Thanks to everyone on here who I've met/ shared this experience with this year, you guys are awesome and I hope you're all doing well 🙂

                    FH thankyou so much, you're amazing too and ive loved getting to share our year twelve journey this year. I can't wait to hear about where you go too, and don't worry I plan on doing a sequel to my journey journal with whatever uni course I end up in lol

                      On the train up to Melbourne, doing some last minute cramming lol. It's multichoice so the more prac questions I do, the more chance answers will hopefully be familiar and I can make slightly educated geusses.
                      I wish I'd had this exam next week so I could actually revise for it but oh well

                      Done all my exams and cried a little yesterday, haven't broken down properly yet but I know it'll happen soonish.
                      And oh my god, my first 18+ show and it was so funny but damn. I feel it would have been very different to experience if I wasn't asexual lol.
                      I dressed up as Loki for it and a couple people took photos of/with me which is always awesome and dinner/drinks with friends was so good! (I tried a pina colada which was pretty mid but then I had a pineapple, caramel and popcorn cocktail which I quite enjoyed).
                      Anyways I don't have much else to say, Goodluck to anyone still going and congrats to everyone who has finished!

                        It's all finally done and dusted. 13 years of compulsory education is now complete. You must feel so proud of yourself too. Any plans for what to do between now and results day? There's plenty of time to be a free adult now, so just kick back and relax, or maybe go on an adventure

                            Rey_of_sunshine

                            Oooooh yeah. Oz Comic Con is next month, you'll have plenty more time to get your character and costume ready. Do you have a job already, or will you look around for some work?

                                FinFin-3rdYearUni yeah I've got a bit less than a month to put everything together and I have a job but I'll have to talk about picking up more shifts or getting a second job because I'm currently only doing one shift a week

                                  Being done school is weird, Ive been sleeping in until twelve and doing absolutely nothing.
                                  I did buy fabric, body paint and a wig though so I can start working on cosplays and I finally own concealer and stuff to try and do masc makeup for cosplay in the future?
                                  I was planning on going into school this week to deal with my locker and stuff but I think I may do that next week now... Oh well we shall see.

                                  It's strange that my friends are still going in and doing exams and I'm not tbh, I was always the most school obsessed one (and the most upset at the thought of leaving) but I haven't even had a proper cry or anything yet? It'll probably happen when I empty my locker and stuff is my current geuss. Idk

                                  Also I have my CHES graduation next week and I'm doing a buffet lunch at crown before it which should be a lot of fun.
                                  Hope everyone's going well, Goodluck to all my fellow year twelves still going through exams and I hope everyone's enjoying the end of their year!

                                    The post-exam sleep ins are the weirdest feeling ever. Enjoy them though.
                                    Most of the students still doing exams are language students. My French class and the Indo SL were the last exams, and there were about 10 of us, while everyone was on schoolies, or waiting for us to finish so we could go to schoolies.
                                    A buffet lunch? At the Crown? That sounds pretty good, and should be loads of fun. I graduated in 2020, so we were lucky just to get drinks at a pub. But, a finish is a finish, and we were happy just to be able to see each other. Your graduation will be fun, so enjoy it. You might not see a lot of your classmates for years after

                                        MMHS yep!
                                        FinFin-3rdYearUni yeah it's definitely strange getting to sleep in but I do quite like it. The buffet lunch isn't the actual graduation, just something my mum is doing for me (she and my sister went on a family holiday that I chose not to go on so she wanted to do something with me instead). I didn't really talk to a lot of my classmates for this grad because it's my online school so we only had weekly classes but I'm looking forward to it because there are a few Ive become friendly with.

                                            22 days later

                                            Wow guys its been ages since I was online.
                                            Final results are out!!!

                                            Atar: 96.05

                                            Study scores (raw):
                                            Business management: 38
                                            English: 39
                                            Psychology: 41
                                            Hospitality: 45
                                            HES aggregate: 4.0

                                            I am so happy considering I spent a considerable chunk of the year thinking I may fail (anxiety... Yipee) but that was clearly delusional of me so yay.
                                            But I should have enough for guaranteed entry into Melbourne uni which is what I wanted and I got above a 90 which was always my personal goal.

                                            A bit disappointed at business cause I was hoping to get at least a 40 but pleasantly surprised by english as my exam was pretty average.

                                            In other news I have done my last con of the year (Oz Xmas edition) where I did my first ever body paint with a homemade cosplay I sewed myself with frost giant Loki, aka one of my dream cosplays from when I started a few years ago so I'm so happy. Plus I did a payed photoshoot with a photographer I like and it was incredible.

                                            I hope everyone is happy with their results or can at least relax knowing it's over.
