    I didn't think I would be nervous but I'm qute anxious becaue sine the weaher was so nice I've just been out al day long doing hardly any study.

    I've done about 6 hours all weekend.


    I did do a lot of work all year though and it's not that I'm looking for 500+ points.I only need around 350

    In the pres I got 320 not including Irish bonuses andthat's not counting Accounting as I failed and subsequently dropped to ordinary.

    I really want to get enough but since it's got hot I just can't study.
    I'm well covered for this week though but nextweek is the problem; French and Business.

    +1

    Pre's are always harder / less fairly marked. And the weekend is long.

    He's not lying , you say you've put the work in all year so it shouldn't be too much of a problem .

    Hell I haven't put the work in and I'm still hopeful of doing alright :p

    ye i know how you feel. i only started studying at five o clock each day. took about 3 one hour breaks and have been staying up till like three in the morning to study each night. i feel like i'm screwed for these exams but in reality i think i'll do fine. i think everyone thingks theyre ****ed once in a while. I need about 460 and the last three xmas/summer exams i've got 460,450 and 485. i only properly studied for the 485 one. so even tho i'm ****ting it i'm trying not to worry, cos at this stage you can only try your best. ****ing better get my points tho

    hell I am in the same boat as you.
    Only I got 250 in my mocks. (am not worried about the mocks, I didn;t even try to prepare for most my subjects for it as we were just finishing the courses. saw the maths paper for the first time 2 days before my maths mock, yeah I failed that maths exam lol)

    Calm yourself bud.

    Probably better you got some sun and fun out of your system.

    Just do yourself a favor and bunker down for these last 2 weeks and then you are home free.

    Same or something a bit stronger lol .It would be perfect if you had an essay title 'The bravest thing I have ever done' and then write 'This is the bravest thing i have ever done ...' and leave rest of essay blank. Apart from end where you'd ask 'did you think that was good?
    '

    I'm tempted to play some games, but that'd just leave me up until 2am and I'd end up writing a short story tomorrow about my life as a pyro.

    I'm terrifyingly relaxed. A little bit excited. I like writing short stories. The one thing I pray is that there's a good theme for the paper. The mock I got was horrendous; "A Sense of Occasion"... what is that even?

    I didn't think the Pre was that bad. It gave you a lot to work with. :<
