Year 11 Zone: Preparing Yourself For Year 12 Starts Now!

May 1, 2014

Many students take Year 11 as a breeze-through year; ‘it doesn’t count for anything’, ‘I’m saving myself for the HSC’. At HSC CoWorks we strongly disagree with these sentiments.

Year 11 is a vital year to bed down study behaviours, commit to the strategies that HSC CoWorks use and are known to work and to establish the required skills to start the HSC at an advantage.

The process of building up the right study techniques, familiarising yourself with the assessment process is just like that of athletes that train for the HSC. If we think of 100M sprinters, they train years for that quick 10 second race. That’s just like the HSC. It represents a mere 5% of your life so far and yet requires years of preparation.

In junior school there is a lot less focus on performance and results. As such, many students struggle with the transition to Year 11. Committing to working with us at HSC CoWorks, exposes you to the organisational skills and independent learning required to get those awesome HSC results.

We look forward to working with you over the next two terms to build up these skills and putting them to good use come Term 4!

The HSC can feel like it’s all consuming right now.
The assignments. The exams. The late nights. The pressure.
But our Balgowlah coaches are living proof that there’s so much waiting for you on the other side.
From travelling the world, building careers they’re passionate about, studying at university, moving overseas, and saying “yes” to opportunities they never imagined in Year 12 . Their adventures all started with the same thing: putting in the work. 
The HSC isn’t the finish line. It’s a launch pad.
Every study session, every practice paper and every small effort you’re making now is helping create more choices, opportunities and skills for your future self.
So when motivation feels hard to find, remember what you’re working towards.
The adventures ahead are worth it 🏔️
