But what does this actually mean? I mean, it sucks but if it doesn't reduce your chances of doing what you like then just try and do better next time.

meh it's only year 11, as long as you pass it's all good

Yeah, fair enough. I'm just saying, don't beat yourself up about it.

For me grade 11 (11th grade?) was important because that's when you take the SATs and stuff.

 

Tough for me to give you much advice since I don't know you personally, but try creating a schedule. Works for me.

It never hurts to study 15 minutes a day on each subject (even 10 minutes is good). The problem with studying comes with stress. If you stress out too much, your capacity to remember material grows smaller during your study time if you remained stressed out.

 

I've come to learn that "the harder you study, the better the results" creates stress, whereas "the calmer and more prepared you approach studying" will result in better memorization.

 

 

But then again, I have a semi-photographic memory, so I study, but just not extensively and still wind up with As.

dont let society hold you back follow your dreams

same gary im never stressed its not good

Haven't gotten my report card yet, I dunno why :s Also I took a year 12 subject this year and the results come back in 3 days, I'm so nervous >.<

I would say that stress when studying could be a good thing. State-dependent learning is an aspect of memory where your internal environment is the same, or similar, when encoding and retrieving information. If you're stressed whilst encoding information into memory, you'll be able to better retrieve that memory under stress.

 

Now I'm fairly sure sitting end of year exams that are quite important in regards to your future will make you very stressed.

 

I'm not a psychologist but that's what I learned so ye

It depends how stressed you are. There is some law like the Yerkes-Dodson that basically says there is an ideal level of stress for retrieving information. For studying I don't know if stress is good whatsoever.

I know how to study and I am super calm and not stressed (thnx to my boi Mozart) during the days leading up to (and the actual) days of exams. I don't know why I didn't score well, I found most of the exams easy, i.e I knew the content in said exams.

 

Ohwel

 

Kamil, I'm doing year 12 subject too (Biology) which I now think I've completely fudgeed due to the results of these ones.

Which subject are you doing?
