History is scaring me the most.... chief examiner may watch his step i've had enough bad exams :P
Hahah so true. Ya never feel safe with History, it's like 'I've only learnt off four essays for this topic, omg I'm f**ked!' such a dickhead of a subject like. Wish I did chemistry instead in fairness0 -

Perhaps, but not to risk purpose marks I was not willing to experiment.
I also did a 30/40 on my mock and scored highly in it. So here is to hoping!
I didn't do mocks but I always score less on the a) b) part then when I do the 70. I remembered the question I did the last time. But I forgot to mention Michael as a central character and referred to the whole family. I think I forget what the question is asking me and go off point or I write to much for part a or b. I find it easier to just compare the 3.I take it I'm the only one who came straight home from Maths Paper 1 and lay in bed until about half an hour ago* then? :cool:
*I had one food break at dinner time. :P
I haven't done anything tonight or opened a single book lol.
Tomorrow will be maths for the whole day and business.
It's good to have breaks from studying. I didn't feel like opening a maths paper after my paper going awful lol.
I wonder whats going to happen when the exams finish. Will we all still chat? lol.0 -

I dont learn off essays for it because that never works out ... oh and in my second mock ... haha this is proof of how unlucky I really and truly am .. I learnt 2 case studys (and there are 3 in each) for each because I was stuck for time to study for it anyways... Nothing I studied came up in the 4 sections
Oh woe is me Yes the other case study I didnt learn came up in all
Wish I did accounting or french 0 -
Yeah but thats what I really hated...most teachers are awful and uncreative and they base their comparative around whatever those stupid revision books do. Half this forum probably did HMMB, IID and DAL. My teacher picked unique texts and character questions just dont work with it, and we almost got punished for actually doing something different...
Thankfully they put "aspects" in the 30/40 mark one. We dont look at central characters, we looked at aspects e.g. treatment of children (not just the one main child), and also women, and many other aspects. They might as well ask a question on poetry that wont fit many people's 6 poems - it was just so unfair!
Got 65/70 in the mock in GV+V and I'm praying I at least maintained it...
I think my school used those as we were all repeats as well and it's easy to do those in a year. I could've done my texts from last year but I did them at ordinary level. Aw it must be really interesting do other texts though.
I know some people used Casablanca instead of Inside I'm Dancing.0 -

Same, I just have to do Irish and Maths over the weekend. Can't wait for those two to be out of the way. Guarantee that I won't do a tap for Irish though. :cool:Mysteriouschic wrote: »I wonder whats going to happen when the exams finish. Will we all still chat? lol.

My teacher made them up himself completely, I can tell because he only decided halfway through 5th year whether we'd do Purple Hibiscus or Dont Lets Go To The Dogs Tonight. Sadly he picked Purple Hibiscus. :PWe studied unique texts too but my teachers essay was based around a sample.
You know, maybe repeating isn't such a bad idea after all? All this new experience. :P
Lol repeating and getting an even worse set of exams would kill me.
Of course we will - THE BOARDSIE CRAIC!!!
I'd propose a meet up if it wouldnt make me sound like some kind of pedo... :PI propose a LC graduation class 2012 OT:D0 -

I was going to do How many miles to Babylon with The story of Lucy Gault and The Lonesome West. But I hadn't studied it through general vision or theme or issue. I'd probably be able to do it by myself now since I know what it is.
Haha a boardsie meet up would be deadly. Didn't we say we'd all meet up before lol?0 -

I had done so well to avoid posting in here all year because I knew it would be bad for my study efforts, then the second they start I couldn't resist. They should just rename this forum the procrastination and occasional exam discussion forum.0 -

We can all be moderators of the new forum, the things we would do!
All Coeur's posts would read "I am a tranny", all Cian's would be "I am studying", and everyone else's would be "Patchy is not totally sexy and awesome" because I am sick of you guys saying that :rolleyes:0 -
