    Oh the stress! :-/


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 268 ✭✭Fuascailt


    Finished today, can hardly believe it! Would actually have preferred to have them spread out, it was waaaay too intense. Had exams tues, thurs, fri, monday, wednesday... I think i'll actually go into shock not having to get up and hit Q+2 tomorrow morning!

    I have figured that for gepgraphy, I only need about 10% in each section to pass :D that shouldn't be too hard, although I don't know much at all for economic geography.

    And depending how i've done in my last ary history slide test, I've pretty much already passed! Life isn't so hard! :p

    You wouldnt be doing first arts geography? question: how do you only need 10% in each section. Im currently bricking it for tomorrow economic and physical exams.... that rickett-heinz woman:mad:...

    Five down one to go then freeeeeeeeeeedom!:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    6 down, 4 left.
    Electrostatics didn't go too well today, but it's my own fault for not studying it properly.

    Multivariable Calculus Monday, and if I don't do well on that exam I may as well just give up college now. It's a fairly simple exam so I need to do well in it to bring up my marks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 252 ✭✭orangetictac


    My signature will soon expire :D

    Finished 12.30 Wednesday......and of all the exams I'll probably be finished really early....so can enjoy my re-reading:P


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,121 ✭✭✭Censorsh!t


    Got through the hard part (english and geography). Now just art history and philosophy left... although, I just cant ge myself to study.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,971 ✭✭✭teednab-el


    All of theses exams are an anti climax in the end of the day. I remember in my time in UCC when starting exams and wishing at the time they could be over and then when they were over I didnt feel any different as to if I was still doing them. I suppose not studying anymore during the summer is the good thing unless you have to repeat an exam like me in 2005 :(
