Band 6 physics

Hey guys,

After dismal performances on my part in MX1 and MX2 I'm looking to compensate with the physics exam tomorrow. Does anyone have any tips on how to get a high band 6 (around 95+ ish scaled)?

I have written a guide on getting a Band 6 in HSC Physics, but since your exam is tomorrow, here is some more immediate advice:

- Focus on learning your terminology. If you know the jargon, you know the concepts.
- Practice! High marks in Physics come from rehearsing that pressure and making sure you can handle it.
- Don't write more than the space in the exam, it is there for a reason.
- Don't sit stumped on a question for too long, skip it and come back if you need to. Keep writing!

But don't stress too much - Make sure you get lots of sleep too. Good luck ;D
