34 people online!

Lord Oz

As I'm posting this there are 34 people on the leaving cert forum! I don't think I've ever seen as many people online. So many nervous people, but you'll all do fine. I suppose this is as good a place as any to be the day before the exam, there's plenty of good info here(and some bad stuff too).

actually, your right.

ive looked at boards results the past 3 or so years and they do have the top guns i.e. 500+

it's rare you'll find someone with less than 400, certainly less than 350. that's from my experience anyway. the majority are brians like me and you

They probably do watch this board, if the papers were leaked they'd end up here somehow.

How much study is one capable of doing (never mind retaining information!) the day before an exam?!

zuma

From my experience of the leaving cert some years ago.....dont try and learn anything new now....just relax and get a good nights sleep!

It gets much worse in college(depending on where you go) when you'll be doing thesemulti week exams around christmas and before Summer....something to look forward to .

2/3 courses worth in my case.

apparently you brain only learns 10 new things a day so i wouldnt go studying poets you havn't covered before. keep studying brief, to the point and most importantly be taking it in and alert.

i've learned more today than i have all year in english because i was super alert and motivated, however all of the info was in my head, it just needed to be fine tuned.

****!!!!38 people on now

haha, yeah I posted about this last year, I think people come to boards to seek refuge and escape the reality of the LC, if even temporarily

Thing is though that people are far less likely to post their results if they do badly. I'd say this is a pretty standard mix of people considering.
