Are you properly studying for the LC now?

Funkstard · 04-03-2006 2:59pm #1

Just wondering how many peopl have got their act together and how many, like me, are waiting for the panic to set in before starting revising. Now I'm doing around 2 hours a night but it's all homework, maybe a small bit of oral work.

What about all of you?

Aporia · 04-03-2006 6:30pm

i don't do routines...

if i don't feel like studying then i just don't
the next day i could get 5 hours done [for tests and revising what i did in class]

i'm just like that i guess :rolleyes:

NADA · 05-03-2006 2:06am

CrimE · 05-03-2006 1:54pm

No

I'm doing my mocks at the mo, so am studying pretty hard. The ones I have had so far have made me realise how much more I need to know so even when the mocks are over ill have to keep studyin as hard!

Raphael · 05-03-2006 2:09pm

Atm, I'm going to get back into serious study at easter. That may change when my mock results come back though.

abercrombie · 05-03-2006 5:30pm

CrimE · 05-03-2006 5:49pm

exiot · 05-03-2006 7:28pm

Afterschool Study, every day: 5.00 - 9.00pm
Sunday: 2 - 6pm

Thats including, I dont plan on doing any extra hours as I only need 320 points max.

abercrombie · 05-03-2006 8:01pm

whoa that's a lot!

casanova_kid · 05-03-2006 8:21pm

No

I do 3 to 4 hours a day and at the weekend maybe three hours a day, largely depending on alcohol intake though.

Stay off the sauce man

I do about 2 hours or so, I needed a break last week though after the mocks, my brain was destroyed. Mostly oral stuff, also a music mock comin up in a couple of weeks, so I'll get some Gerald Barry et all into me for that.

I just think at the moment I am so busy with oral work! seriously german is mad - so much to do! and stupid Irish I really have to start for that! I'm just studyin for tests and going over new material really. I have a history revison test on the stuf we did in september(eurpean democracy) which is a great incentive to study that!

Xylophonic · 08-03-2006 1:30am

No

I'm studying hard enough, I do 3 hours grinds every Monday to Wednesday and 1 hour study afterwards and then 4 hours Thursday and Friday leaving my weekend free

OctavarIan · 08-03-2006 8:45am

No

Mon-Thurs: 4pm-6pm supervised study
8pm-9pm study at home/grinds

Fri-Sun: Homework. I should really start to study on the weekends.

X-SL · 08-03-2006 9:13pm

no because i'm in 5th :P

smemon · 08-03-2006 9:28pm

i dont have time for studying, more important things to be doing.

i consider it a huge waste of time doing hours of study each night. all for what? 2 hrs in june. :rolleyes:

if i pass all my pre's which i should do, i wont do anything until after easter. Q.E.D

Funkstard · 08-03-2006 11:25pm

3 months yesterday to the day. 3 months on Friday since my best friend died. That timeframe absolutely freaks me out.

Zapp Brannigan · 09-03-2006 7:40pm

I go to the Library twice a week and do homework and a bit of revision. Every other day I just do homework and then play my bass (under the pretence of practising for my practical)

I'm lucky though, I can sit in class and aborb the information and then recall it during the exam. I also have a talent for bull****ting on a paper, so English and Classics should be fine.

Dean820 · 09-03-2006 8:24pm

I'm ****ed for the Leaving Cert.. i have done nothing so far this year.. i really need to get off my ass and do something... and the oral is in like two weeks!!

willowmegs · 11-03-2006 2:50pm

Ive not properly studied yet. Im doing our revision thats marked in Biology and Accounting and some oral work but thats about it. Usually Im too tired after the long day of school and normal homework to attempt revision at night.

Dean820 · 11-03-2006 8:54pm

Yeah thats like me too.. your in scholl till about 4 then you don't get home to about 5.. i'm always wrecked tired then and have no energy to study... plus you have homework to do aswell..

Exactly! I think once the entire course is done and there's only revision to give as homework we should be ok.

Limerick Dude · 11-03-2006 9:15pm

im in 5th year atm and i seriously need to get my act together. i do supervised study after school and some days i dont bother going. i have a serious problem studying at home. when im in school ill get motivated and think to myself ill get my act together and start studying but then when i get home i just **** the bag into the corner and go on my pc or something.

Dean820 · 11-03-2006 9:18pm

dr.barbie · 11-03-2006 11:43pm

No

Im doing my best to knuckle down but its damn hard. I feel very lucky in that I had the cop on to listen in class all year and learn things as I got them, which puts me in a less stressful situation now but also makes me feel like Ill sail through June which is not the case. The next couple of months will consist of intense studying- I have to keep reminding myself not to get lazy at this late stage and f**k it all up coz Ill be gutted in August if that happens.

Limerick Dude · 12-03-2006 12:17am

i know theres one thing that will get ya to study, just imagine yourself failing the leaving cert and having to repeat 6th year *shudders*

That's what is scaring me so much. Imagine in August when you don't get anywhere near what you expects. What the **** would you do? Repeat? It'd absolutely horrible not to have done your best
