Tips for Acing Year 12

Year 12 can put a lot of pressure on you, but think about this:  ‘whatever your goals may be for the future, keep in mind that there are many paths to the top of the mountain, but the view is the same’.  That’s some pretty sound advice from Phil Newnham, a teacher and careers practitioner in a large government school in Melbourne’s east.  Phil also recommends you ‘plan for your future but don’t let it get in the way of a successful Year 12 – nothing is final;  there are always other options’.
