    I'm among the worst I know. Even the messers in my year got their act together and are doing more work than me. I just don't feel motivated, even though I understand the consequences :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 921 ✭✭✭reznov


    I'm fine overall, just need to revise over a few chapters I have weaknesses in.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 61 ✭✭cutty9


    ive organised my entire notes this morning.

    i have a spin class at 7pm.

    just revised 8 chapters in biology, 5 in maths, hamlet and 4 poets for english paper 2.

    now starting chemistry till 6pm.

    it feels great to be so productive. :)

    Still have to do all of English, all of Irish paper 2, bit more French, loads more geography essays, few more physics chapters, paper 2 maths.

    Tiny bit more work to do for Accountancy, applied maths, irish paper 1 and paper 1 maths.

    Hopefully I can get that done!

    There's only 2 weeks left......:eek: jeez....I better get started.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 592 ✭✭✭fizzyorange


    The only subjects I'm making progress in are physics and biology. Going to try finish unit 2 tonight and do all nuclear qs, half of heat. Also want to write out LG and GV+V plans for English and look over physical geography for my extra class today. I also want to go on a 5km run. It's going to be an exciting night. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 923 ✭✭✭biohaiid


    Haha I love how people have only one or two chapters here and there ..
    Id have to have at least 10 in everything.
    Havent started maths at all yet, or music.
    Yep.

    I actually dont feel too worried though, lack of motivation maybe but I dunno. Knda just want them over with now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,169 ✭✭✭Zomg Okay


    Part of me spends every waking hour screaming "You're f**ked!". :(

    On the other hand, I've been paying attention in most of my classes since 5th year so I know I won't fail anything (Ds and Cs in my mocks with no study done). Reckon I'll be okay if I put the last bit of time between then and now to good use.

    Graduating properly tomorrow, hopefully I'll be more productive at home than I've been in previous months. :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 661 ✭✭✭Mayo_Boy


    Im VERY fecked for the exams :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 125 ✭✭FinnD


    Im spending the next two weeks "studying" English and geography essays and then studying everything else the night before each exam, so yep, pretty fecked! But YOLO!!

    Majorly behind on business and applied maths, not great on english or physics either :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 825 ✭✭✭Dwellingdweller


    I'm actually feeling ok about them. There is the worry though - what if I don't get the points for Biomed? (515 last year...) it'd mean I'd have to do general science first year in NUIG and compete with 50 or 60 other first years for a place in the Pharmacology degree stream in 2nd year :(

    Physics and Biology are both pretty big worries tbh, there's so much to cover in Biology and Physics really depends on whether the questions are nice or not. Everything is else is pretty much fine as long as I don't fúck them up majorly in the day with timing or something (history!).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 378 ✭✭The High Crusade


    On a scale of 1-Father Jack?

    A lot of feck.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 661 ✭✭✭Mayo_Boy


    Why did I think it would be possible to learn everything in a week :(. Im such an idiot, im actually having a nervous breakdown right now, I give up a this stage :(
    I really don't want to repeat :(:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,840 ✭✭✭Luno


    I'm fairly fecked. I'm doubting I'll get my first preference but I'm not even 100% sure I even want it. I've been doing a bit of study but nothing too serious. Why am I so unmotivated? :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,391 ✭✭✭Mysteriouschic


    Well I'm not as bad as last year and I have done a fair amount of studying throughout the year. It's just the case of going over everything.
    I've not bothered with French apart from with the oral as it's ordinary and maths I've only focused on paper 1 mainly. The rest I just need to learn them off I have most answers already written/typed out. I like my timetable this time it's not too bad I'm not in everyday except I have 4 days before my last exam when most others will be finished. I reckon I'll get the results I want this time round. I feel more prepared.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,323 ✭✭✭Cruel Sun


    I am unable to study anymore.
    9 Days Left


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 789 ✭✭✭FaoiSin


    I think if I had a few more months I'd still be fecked so bring it on :P :pac:

    Irishhhhhhh I need to learn my essays but I'm starting to wonder if I'll even be covered. >_> Might let poetry/prose piss off a bit, idk, too much in it for such a small amount but at the same time, An Triail could go badly too :L


    </blog> :P

    What Irish essays you covering?
    I'm doing Young People, Education System, Environment, Roads and maybe Sport. Think it should be enough?

    I'm ****ed for business and economics, although I'm gonna spend about 50 hours on economics in the six days I have between it and business. I'm gonna spend tomorrow ding business ABQs and short questions.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 97 ✭✭SJPK


    Absolutely undoubtably fecked! lucky to get near the 300 Mark, 've lost any motivation I had which was fairly minimal in the first place :( ara, and I genuinely mean this, sure it'll be grand.... Well I hope so anyway. Anyone else the same


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22 callistofalk


    I have no motivation either. I understand what will happen if I don't work but I just can't do it. It's too much pressure so I took myself out of the game. I've never been competitive anyway. I'm looking at getting 300 or less now despite needing 450-500. Oh well.

    One week left. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 97 ✭✭SJPK


    Nail on the head there, kinda outta the game myself although I don't exactly need many points it'd still be nice to get a few... I get 5 second bursts of 'oh holy sh*it, a week left and nothing done!' then I just go back to the 'it'll be grand mindset' :/

    oh stop im f****cked as hell! got 365 in my mocks, need 520 for this exam for science. havnt exactly done much study since the mocks :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 145 ✭✭Astrozombies


    So fecking much to study... yet in saying that, here I am online, wasting time (kinda impossible to study after 10oclock but always nice to try haha)
    I got 410 in the mocks, with average grades, mostly C2's. Althought taking into account I only studied for that the week before, Im hoping to go up to 470ish?
    Literally relying on my art practicals and orals! Unless, I fail HL maths .. it could quite likely happen :/

    Totally the same:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 412 ✭✭Haelium


    If I had taken the leaving cert a month ago I would have been fine, but I have somehow forgotten everything I know about everything.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 220 ✭✭smithy77


    Same I revised a good bit of stuff around Easter and now its all starting 2 creep away:( I'd like to go back over it but its hard when there's other stuff to be revising


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,813 ✭✭✭Togepi


    Well, as fecked goes, I'm relatively fecked, but sure you'll have that. We have a week lads, 'be grand!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26 Reprazent


    Lets be honest, tings are looking bleak. 310 in mocks but I would love to hit anything over 400. I just need to pass accounting and Spanish and I should be grand but who knows how its going to play out on the day? Best of luck to everyone!
