    Sorry but I don't believe anyone who says they only studied the night before and got 500+ points.
    Obviously you did some work throughout the year and studied for tests. Getting 500+ points isn't achieved from just a 'night before' job...unless you used the mocks thread..

    It's possible :p Maths, Chemistry, English, Technology, Irish(O) and French(O) are all very manageable tests as long as you get questions that aren't too weird.

    I was extremely lucky for geography, everything besides Atmosphere & Ocean suited me perfectly.

    Oh yeah obviously I don't mean I did feck all all year, anyone who looks at my study log can see that's not the case :pac:
    But a majority of the major revising was definitely done the night before :o

    Well isn't that what everyone does? Study the majority the night before? That's what I always do at least anyway :)

    Every teacher I know has told me to only do light revision the night before....
    Is that really a good idea?
    I plan on cramming like mad.

    Depends on the exam really. Like I don't think French is something you can cram that much the night before but I intend to eat my whole business book the night before the exam and cough it up the following morning! :pac:

    Beware business

    There very strict on the marking scheme

    VERY

    I was an A student....but got a C in the actual thing

    For any business revision youre doing from here on in I suggest looking at the marking scheme as youre doing out exam questions.
