    I hope to do Commerce & German in NUIG which this year went up 10 points to 460.
    I should be fine with getting the 460 and I'm aiming for 500+ (preferably 560 as I'd like to get a scholarship)- my family will have 3 students in college and we don't qualify for grants so...:)

    I'll try and update this everyday along with what subjects I did and the chapters.

    I have my study timetable for September-October planned out and it's for 2.5-3 hrs depending on my mood. I should be doing between 3-4 subjects a night
    Stress the 'should'.

    Anyhoo, this is going to be an interesting 9 months to say the least :p

    Long time, no update
    Tonight:


    Business- Expanding the Business
    Geography- Coastal erosion/deposition
    German- Oral pictures- In Der Jugendherberge ist besser (Or whatever the hell it's called)
    English- All of Sylvia Plath



    As a result of my love for Plath, I plan to study her for the exam (3rd time lucky eh? :p)

    Along with Montague, Frost, Dickinson and Hardy (if my teacher bothers to study him). And yes I know Dickinson was up this year as well. The only other poet we did is Yeats and I don't plan on touching him with a barge poll :pac:

    I am very consistent :rolleyes:

    Today: 1 hour French- mixture of oral, exam comprehensions and 75 word questions (120/120 in 2012 comprehensions :D)
    German- Learned new vocab from a book I'm reading at the moment, I'm also watching the news in German now. Looked at some exam papers.
    Maths- Bit of study for tomorrow's test
    Geography- Hope to do some coastal and fluvial erosion/deposition features tonight. I'm going to some cliffs on Thursday for the project....so looking forward to it...not :mad: I hate projects would prefer to go in with 0% to be honest!

    I'm quite proud of myself, been quite productive recently :)
    I did the 2014 French comprehensions and the aural- didn't do too bad ;)
    Have quite a lot of 5th year geography and business done as well and German vocabulary (I can now understand the majority of comprehensions :o)
    Now I'm off to do some more work!

    French written and comprehensions
    Geography- all of rocks for test on Thursday.
