Exams

VCE exams are under way and studying is now changing to being prepared for the actual exam.  It might be necessary to change some things in your life to prepare for this period; dropping a shift at work or changing other responsibilities so that you can be rested and ready.  Double check when you should arrive at the exam and have your supplies organised; know what items are allowed in so that your entry into the exam room goes as smoothly as possible. There is always a temptation to cram in the last minute but a good night sleep before the exam will do more for your memory than an all-night cram session. For other students, we are also entering into assessments and there is pressure to complete work requirements for each of our subjects.  Remember to keep motivated and balance your time and if you are struggling reach out for help sooner rather than later.
