Five Reasons To Keep Going Hard Until The End of Term 4

Nov 28, 2013

With Term 4 quickly coming to an end, there is a tendency for HSC students to start thinking about the Summer holidays a few weeks before the end of Term.

Having worked with 1000’s of HSC students over the last 17 years we have seen the value of continuing to put in the effort despite the temptation to pull up before the line.

Here are five compelling reasons to continue to put in the effort in the final weeks of Term 4:

Reason 1: In 12 months time when you are at schoolies I guarantee it will be SO much better knowing that you didn’t waste a single moment.

Reason 2: Whether we like it or not, the HSC is a competition and these final weeks of Term 4 are your opportunity to race ahead of the pack as the rest of your year(and the rest of the NSW) mentally clock off for the year.

Reason 3: The Summer holidays are long and you are going to have lots of time to kick back, go to the beach, hang out with friends and do whatever you like.

Reason 4: If you can develop the discipline to study despite there being a lack of urgency you will easily be able to put your head down and work hard when you need to in Term 1, 2 and 3. Developing good study habits early is one of the keys to a successful HSC campaign.

Reason 5: Term 1 and Term 2 are going to be extremely demanding in terms of assessments (compared to Term 4 anyway) so it is crucial that you are on top of all work completed in Term 4. Working hard now will take some  of the pressure off in Term 1.

Hopefully at least one of these reasons resonated with you and it helps motivate you to keep going. Looking forward to a big turn out this weekend for the Weekend Support Sessions.

Make these 3 changes to your HSC preparation and watch your results improve:
1️⃣ Be clear on why you’re doing the work and what you’re aiming for. For many, motivation doesn’t just appear.. you need to work on it.
2️⃣ Take small, consistent and proactive actions instead of cramming and hoping it sticks.
3️⃣ Practice questions and writing even before you are ready. Most students will avoid this action until the week before an exam.. this is where marks are gained.
Most students know what to study. Top performing students have learned HOW to train.

Five reasons you’re not motivated.
Here’s the truth they don’t tell HSC students.
Motivation feels good, but it fades.
Discipline is what shows up on the days you don’t feel like it.
That’s what gets results in study and in life
Small changes in your study habits can completely change your HSC results.
Consistency > cramming.
Sydney students who fix the basics early always finish stronger. 📚
