    I've been disgracefully idle for the last few months so now I'm really trying to pull up my socks. Is anyone else just getting really serious now? I'd like to think us late starters still have a chance!

    Haven't done a jot since the mocks :cool: At the pace I'm going at I can guarantee that I'm going to end up being one of the people in those horror stories who drops 100 points between the mocks and the real thing. Need to find motivation but why should I study chemistry when the entire written correspondences between Thomas Jefferson and James Madison is readily available online and begging me to read it

    Oh man, you're like me then! You love reading about whatever scatological topics pique your curiosity but you HATE being forced to study things just for the sake of it. Mark Twain really nailed it when he said " don't let your schooling interfere with your education."
    Nice to see I'm not the only one with this problem. Alas, we have to give this LC our all. There'll be plenty of time to immerse ourselves in esoteric trivia when we get to college. DO YOUR CHEMISTRY OR YOU'LL END UP BEING A BITTER 19 YEAR-OLD REPEAT LIKE ME :D

    Haven't done a tap for the past two weeks. Planning on doing a minimum but solid 6 hours study per day the next two months. On the bright side I've earned 1000 euro over the Easter, so that'll help for next year.

    Working my arse off. I've worked throughout the year and I've been doing 30ish hour weeks including this week and the past two weeks.
