    I have to break my ass and laugh. These fools who are "smart" have absolutly zero common sense. 530 and your worried, your real thing is always better then mocks, always. And 530 can get you anything. Stop worrying.

    I'm 22 and still a Leaving cert student at heart, that's what kind of impression it leaves on you..

    On topic, unless Bright-Smile and deek are going for say medicine they really should chillax. What amount of points do the pair of you need?
    ~Medicine) Ok, just take deep breaths, do regular contructive non-panic study in the mean-time and you'll be fine.
    ~Uh, I only need 450, but I still want to kill myself with panic) STFU! Go out on the piss (I don't care how young you are*). If you are stressing yourself (to pieces) over getting a perfect LC due to pride, then I'd like to add you have some very very messed up priorities. The point of the CAO/points system is to get your college course, nothing more. I mean do as well as you can but for god's sake be reasonable. Prolonged stress is anything but healthy and I don't understand why you would do this to yourself if you have your course in the bag.

    600 pts compared to 560 means nothing when you have the course you want in college.. I've known people to get into my course on the minimum and fly ahead of people who got 100pts higher than them.
    In my mocks I got about 50pts more than i needed for my course, so I chilled, studied a little and had a life.. The amount of points you get has no bearing once you have your course.

    In your opinion its quality but its more often the case that an argument needs quantity (eg. in debatin xtra marks 4 the more points made)

    wait a second, how the hell do u get quantity by shortening the words? your going to write whatever u have to say anyways, theres no time limit or maximum length of text, so theres no rush, and people will have a little bit more respect for you. a little. :D

    i believe by quantity she meant that in an argument the number points made hold priority over the actual number of words you say or something....
