According to my good friend wikipedia, burnout is a psychological term that refers to long term exhaustion and diminished interest in work.

Its a phase that most of us are used to hearing throughout our vce years, especially as workload intensifies in the lead up to the vcaa examinations. Today i will be sharing something much more personal on vce study guides, because i want you to avoid the same mistakes that i made when i was in vce. Even though i was quite successful with my atar score, there are some study habits that i look back upon and i think to myself, why didnt i do that differently?.

I its around that time of the year when you start to contemplate which one of two texts youll most likely use in the text response component of the exam. And its not necessarily an easy choice to make! there are several factors worth considering, and you should definitely take your time deciding which text is best for you after all, it can make a massive difference in your studying habits leading up to the exam and also how well you perform in the final exam. use reading time wisely reading time is a gift from the vcaa designed to give you time to think about what you will write before you even start writing and it is important to use it wisely.  although you can’t write on or mark your exam paper in any way during reading time, i recommend you do the following things, in the following order, to ensure you get off to a great start.

    find the text you will be responding to in section a text response and spend a couple of minutes choosing the essay topic you will respond to. You will have a choice of two topics here pick the one that you are most confident in responding to. Check the prompt you have been given for your context in section b writing in context. Work out which ideas you have that would work with the prompt and the best form of writing to explore your ideas.

    Read through the  section c language analysis  material carefully and thoroughly, more than once if you have the time. Although you can’t mark the exam paper, by reading the given material more than once, you will have a good idea of what the author is arguing and how. My advice would be to start annotating the section c material as soon as reading time is over, and focus on this task in the first hour of writing time. make time to plan spend the first 10 minutes of each hour planning your essay before you write anything. Many students just start writing and then don’t finish their essays because they haven’t worked out what they are going to say and how they are going to finish their piece before they start writing.  a decent plan before you start will actually help you to write quicker because you can focus on the best way to say what you want to say, rather than trying to work out what your next point will be. If you have these times in your mind, you can keep checking in with the clock throughout the exam and making sure you are on track to finish within your set time frames.  this will stop you accidentally taking longer to write one essay, and leaving yourself short on time for another. If you go in to the exam with a strategy and stick to it you should not only manage to complete all three essays in the prescribed time, but they will be better planned and much better written than if you just got in there and started writing.

    Reliable Sources for Research Papers

    These courses do require some commitment from students, but will certainly make an impact on vce scores! our average atar in 2014 was 93.90 english language resources, essays and information the purpose of this thread is to integrate all of the various english language resources available on the site, as it was becoming rather cluttered, and a lot of it was buried away in old threads. I also feel that as there are not very many resources for english language available commercially, it is important to keep an organised and easily accessible set of resources here. Myself and the other moderators are constantly looking to improve the forum, so this repository will constantly be updated with new information and references. I plan to write an english language essay writing guide in the near future, and will also upload some essays and more practice topics. Anyone else looking to contribute in the form of notes, guides, practice assessments, sample essays or any other resources, please message myself or another moderator and we will gladly include your work in this thread. I am particularly keen to build an english language sample essay directory, similar to the one on the english board, so it would be much appreciated if users could get involved and contribute. I believe the best way to learn to write good essays is to have read some good essays.
