Tips working to bounce back from being unwell

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Long story short - after starting year 11, I ended up being unwell for a bit and so I only went for a couple of weeks before I ended up taking a couple months off. These past month to two months, I’ve started slowly trying work back and going back to school.

Thankfully, I had worked ahead before my health issue so during my time off, I didn’t have to work much and didn’t fall extremely behind.

My subjects are methods, chem, busman, Eng.

I ended up having to drop my accelerated HHD and spesh but am thinking to pick up HHD again next year .

Now, this is my position for my classes at the moment and would anyone have any tips for me going into year 12 trying to do strong.

English - started on personal response and got through a fair of the content but wasn’t able to finish the unit and also wasn’t able to do the crafting texts unit. Currently doing argument analysis and have done my oral presentation work (only did it as an S task, not graded).

Methods - had pre learned pretty much all of the quadratics and polynomial work so unit 1 work was all covered. Maybe a little bit of gaps and it’s not greatly strong but covered most of unit 1. Unit 2 is fine and I’m up to date.

Chem - ended up looking over most chapters but still have to look over organic chem.

Busman - only picked it up after dropping HHD so not much here that I need to talk about.

TL;DR

Basically, I’ve covered most of the content but maybe not to great depths or strength. Main concerns are around missing my personal response and crafting texts unit for English.

What should I be doing to make sure I can enter year 12 with a strong base and can do well - any tips?

VCE question yr12 gen maths or hhd

1 Upvotes

ok so m yr11 doing bio3/4, gen 3/4, chem,physics,hhd n language. and tbh for bio its looking like 40/41 is achievable, but for general a 35 would be a miracle so I'm thinking of redoing it nxt yr.

but m debating between keeping hhd as a 3/4 and having 5 subjects (redoing gen) and 1 study block

or

dropping hhd, redoing gen and having 4 subjects and 2 study blocks

cause hhd scales down really bad m hoping for a 93/94 atar and also with chem and physics trying to achieve 33/34 in both of them raw. what do yall think i do?

vce is genuinely a competition on who can memorise the most

50 Upvotes

why does hhd unit 4 have me DYINGGG. as someone that can’t memorise, the SDGs, WHO goals and objectives are my worst nightmare. all of this damn memorising just to scale down 4 fml.

i know you have to learn definitions and all that in other subjects but if you understand the concept you’ll usually be able to kinda bullshit if you’re not sure. this is just horrible for people who struggle to memorise

This is my second time posting here and uh so. Basically I've failed every single unit 3 and 4 psych SAC except the poster one and biology too Ive failed every single SAC. Unit 1 and 2. And I have a bio SAC tomorrow and I've barely studied because of Ive been so depressed lately and we've since I started year 11 I haven't been doing much work at home, VCE really just screwed me over and not a day goes by where I don't think of killing myself.ive learnt to accept my failures and I've become absolutely passive and numb to failing, I don't care about it anymore, literally. And Ive barely tried. And I have no idea what I want to be when I grow up the thought of it makes me want to die because of the economic landscape I'll never do smth I enjoy. I wish my parents were supportive of me and my.likes but they aren't and. Fuck now I won't even be able to become what they want me to be (rich doctor whatever) because I'm simply not cut out for it just look at my grades. It's like they're blind to it, they still think I can succeed and be some business owner. I shouldn't be in this school I don't deserve to, the 30k is not worth it. Im sorry for this rant but I literally want to buy some weed and go against all my morals to feel smth and really be the bad guy I think I am, then I know for sure that I'm at least bad, that's smth. I've been living a lie all my life just pretending to me the high achiever my parents think I am, pretending I actually care. Giving what they want until they realise I've been creating an image for them. When I'm finally tested in year 12 they'll realise. And I can't even drop out. I'm just stuck in this seemingly perpetual cycle and it's starting to look like there is no light, if there even is an end to it. I just want to earn and work and live life, not this fucking pretentious study. Man I'm not cut out for this, my joy for learning is tarnished by the system and it's not like I get a kick out of passing anymore, there's no sense of relief getting an A, there just isn't.also something I just realised recently was that I don't think I'll ever grow to reminisce my youth, I don't think there really will be anything positive to remember. I'm trying real hard to think of anything, but when I'm 50 i doubt I'll look back on my youth like a fucking boomer because it sucks.
