    So its 2:45 and I have an exam at 10:00 for college. I hope whoever invented midterms is extremely unhappy. I'm so screwed! How do I get out of it with out taking a hammer to my writing hand??

    Get cracking on that time machine you were building, go back in time and give your past self a kick in the arse for not preparing early enough.

    That's about it really ...

    go revise the PAST PAPERS..something from them is bound to come up. Remember do not start covering new stuff now...it will only serve to confuse...
    devise a strategy of which questions you will do....eg. if there are 9 topics to know and five questions. You only have to know five topics really well. Pick these now. DECIDE NOW what questions/topics you will answer....and get studying...good luck.

    Go to bed now and get as much sleep as time will allow. Things are as they are at this point and worry is not going to change them. At this point all is left to you is some good sleep let tommrow take care of itself.

    Sounds super!
    How did it go anyway?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 542 ✭✭✭Hoochiemama


    it was one of those exams that you spend a week kakking yourself over and then after you do it your like "if i did an hours study i wouldve got a freakin A. why did i bother!!"

    then theres the opposite ones where you have an exam and your like "im so sorted :cool: " and then you go in and turn the paper over and feel ur stomach sink to the ground cos its impossible!!

    How about yourself? what was it and how did it go??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 812 ✭✭✭neGev


    Same here, it was one of those exams where if I'd actually spent a single day just learning the waffle well enough to spew it back at them, it would have been easy. But of course I didn't do that.
    :mad:
    It was Management Accounting by the way. I think it's at this point that I should point out my wholesale apathy towards anything accounting related.
    I think I passed it anyway, which is all the matters.

    I had end of year exams during my rag week, and then when I finished at 12:30 on the Friday, I had to submit something which I was doing until about 8/9 at night. Oh the joys of college.

    Yeah, it totally sucks when you have to work through Rag Week, but I'm still convinced it should become a national institution.
    An entire week when work is optional and everyone is pissed 24/7 ?
    Can't go wrong there
