Hello, Guys! 👋
Hello ! I'm Kayla and I graduated highschool with a 99.15 ATAR and a score of 99 in Extension 1 Maths. To be honest, I surprised myself with my results and I was both extremely happy with myself in not only achieving my academic goals, but also being able to do so while still enjoying my year 12 (for the most part at least).
At the start of year 11 and 12, I put myself through hell just trying to study as much as possible in order to get good marks. But I quickly realised this had the opposite effect I intended when I received my first round of exam results and felt the disappointment in how little my hard work seemed to pay off. The pressure really got to me and so I learnt to overcome it by building up other aspects of my life with friends and hobbies so that I could enjoy my life. Though this led me to study less, I ultimately learnt to study more efficiently and was much happier overall.
