Exams

Suaimhneach

So who else is fuked?

I'm suffering from the remnants of a very bad tooth ache... not helping towards the study or concentration.

:|

I'm pretty screwed, for one in particular. And I haven't got a toothache or any other excuse

Suaimhneach

I kinda wish I didnt have an excuse, then I could do actual work.
I'm off to the library now. Must stop with extenuating circumstances form first, and get pain killers also. Oh the joys.

ridonkulous

totally fooooked, but it wouldn't be the same if i wasn't.

Suaimhneach

Haha, yeah, thats something alright.

I'm in the library now... on boards.ie. I just need like, I dunno, a bag of concentration!?

Amz

STUDY Jess! Don't make me come in there!

tnkrbell

I have one exam during exam time and although its only one im s***ing it! it has a 75% failure rate the examiner is such a hard marker as well which doesnt help and she hasn't given us one clue
Roll on Monday at 4!!

Suaimhneach

The first years in my course (which has admittedly changed a little) have *no* exams. It was funny to see them stressing over essays... they dont know how easy they've got it! Feckers!

Well good luck to all anyway. My first one is tomorrow. Cant wait to get them over with.

mrmldy

Well done on distractions, maynooth student on DCU forum, lol.

I've gotten enough done for SOME of my exams, but not all... and yet here I am again.

Bah. I was so good all semester. Being sick and sleeping lots has thrown me off my game.

:|

Ugh I can't focus at all. Am definitely gonna fail at least one or two unless a miracle happens

Mr.Plough

4th year exams start tomorrow. need a 66% average to scrape a 2.1

gonna start studying today. i reckon its 40/60 whether i pull it off or not

bobzi

I'm fairly screwed - was doing ok with the study until I became addicted to online poker. On a positive note my poker skills have improved

Amz

There's always a post like the above at this time of year ...

AARRRGH

I'm not DCU, but my MSc exams start tomorrow. I took a week off to study for them. Uhh... I really haven't studied enough. Concentration is wrecked (too many distractions!)

I don't think I will fail, but I'm not going to get the grade I want...

Ha I always get addicted to something at exam time. Then when they're over and I have time to do whatever it is, I completely lose interest

He could be basing it on what he needs to bring up his mark from last years results etc.

You wouldn't be CS would you? If so, I take offence

Suaimhneach

Oh yeah cause moaning really has an impact on exam failure rates!

Limerick Dude

StrawDub

This is going to sound like a really stupid question but wheres the entrance to the university sports club Main Hall? Is it in the main door of the sports club beside the reception desk or is it around the side of the building??

:|

It's the main door beside the desk, there'll be hundreds of other students there anyway so you won't miss it

carlowboy

Finished mine today Linear Algebra was my last one!

Suaimhneach

Well if you stopped moaning and listened you wouldnt have the high failure rate would you..:P

gamblitis

Less whining = More Study.
Logic!!
