    Are you all set to pass or are you stressing over a possible failure?

    Even with just over a week to go, its still not late to get the head down and do enough to pass. If you are in your final year and need high marks... well that may be a different story, but a pass degree is better than no degree ;)

    Nope, starting to worry now.

    My maths course barely makes any sense and the notes I have aren't great so I've been struggling with that and dedicating most of my time to that. While my other 3 very passable exams are barely getting touched.

    Speak for yourself, a week Is more than enough time to get more than a pass in exams. :)

    Some of older folk need more than a day per subject I'm afraid. 5 subjects this semester..... which is also final year :D

    Final year here too. 6 exams. Not worried about any of them except for the first one... Inorganic chemistry. Jesus I hate it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 995 ✭✭✭Ass

    final year here too, four subjects and only confident in getting a first in 2 of them.

    i haven't started studying yet either, although when in class all the stuff is real logical to me so it's just a matter of refreshing it so i remember the little tidbits.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,461 ✭✭✭Max_Damage


    No.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,564 ✭✭✭Naikon


    I haven't done a tap yet:eek:

    Will need to put the head down this week. Didn't have Jan exams in
    first year strangely, now that has all changed. Still, I only have two exams so I
    have little to complain about considering some people have to take more than me.

    TIME TO GET TEH FINGER OUT PEOPLE !!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    i felt really sorry for the second years when i was in first year of my course. due to the course not being modularised they had no exams in january but had to sit 11 exams in may. poor bastards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,259 ✭✭✭Rowley Birkin QC


    Final year here. Haven't looked at a book yet, getting worried now.

    It's the first time we have had exams at Christmas too so it's next to impossible to settle at them. :(:(

    I hear you, I can suddenly find the most boring things interesting and let them distract me rather than learn some stuff.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,564 ✭✭✭Naikon


    I also share the above afflictions.
    Procrastination ftw:pac:

    Went away for New Year's so only started studying yestereday. Didn't do any today.

    I only hav four exams and one of them's an oral. Another I already got a good bit of the marks in my assignment so I'm not panicking just yet. Still have 11 days to study and already have the books I need checked out.

    Procrastination rocks, started learning piano again this week. I think I may take up something else before my next exam...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 214 ✭✭Assmaster_Kronk


    I've spent most of the day reading how everyones procrastinating.......is this considered turbo procrastination?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 993 ✭✭✭ditpaintball


    If you start on monday...... then you have roughly 52 hours to go :)



    (two and a half days if you can't think from studying so hard)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,117 ✭✭✭Gazza22
