Seriously screwed

Man U babe

26 days to the LC.......cant believe it. I'm just so screwed. I've only studied for 4 out of 8 subjects so far. English scares me, does anyone know is it possible to get a C3 having done feck-all work for the last 2 years? (last essay=mock) or to cram accounting in 5 weeks? +french.....aargh!

I've done precisely 20 minutes of Business Studies study in 6th year so far, on wednesday night. I haven't done anything resembling homework in a long time, and to cap it all off today was my physics and chemistry teacher's last day and out of the class of 3 we sat down one day with the past papers and working together, we couldn't do even half of the questions on a past paper. I'm not panicing though, yet anyway, I reckon once I finish going in to school I'll still have 3 weeks at home before the exams and if I put a bit of effort in I can at least go over the things I know.

Regarding english, if you're good at the subject naturally it's very possible to get a C3 on little or no work as long as you know at least some of the poetry/single text/comparitive studies stuff, I can't see anything that I'd study for on paper one.

Screw all that, it's the Irish I'm useless at. And I need it for my course for some stupid, crazy, useless reason (I didnt know computers used Irish :rolleyes:).

For the accountancy, just do the Ratio Analysis. It's worth 100marks, you only need 160 to pass. RA is simple. Ord level is anyway :]

I got 9% in Honours Maths
I got 7% in pass Applied Maths but the teacher let me resit it cause i couldnt remember any equations and i got 78%.
I dropped back to pass maths and its soo easy.

Its the maths is the only subject that puts me down on the whole LC thing..

kitton

its horrible!i am so dead for phyics!i'll never be able to learn all the crap before the exam!
and although i love history and i'm quite good at it i'm crap at revising it!
i hate it!

cournioni

I'm really ****tin a brick over the Business and Geography papers. I haven't studied for either of them yet. I'm so dead!

kaimera

RA isn't guaranteed on the Accounting paper...be wary.

Slurprisingly, I'm dead calm at the minute. Only 4 odd weeks to go and I havent really got any asort o panic attacks.

I've worked out some revision plans with some teachers for after our Grad. Mass next Tuesday.

Only time I over reacted was when the CAO form came in the post d'other day and I went and changed EVERYTHING!
Went a bit OTT and put my last choice first and pushed everything down a notch!

Other than that....if your sort o uneasy...buy some *smoke* and just relax for a few days...:p

Well i wouldn't worry too much about English, you can easily get a C with just a little bit of work (cramming beofre the exam :P) If you have done nothing all year in Accouting and French you are kinda screwed, although having said that i got a C1 in French last year by cramming as much phrases/verbs into my head a few days before the exam. If you haven't studied and you are looking for an A or B in a subject, unless you are good you won't get it.

English : Pass...laf
Irish : pass also..but i dunno
Maths : Well fine i guess should get me A1

Business : Absolutely screwed
Home Ec : Err whats a cooker?

Asok

ah sure if the worst comes to the worst just repeat it can make a big difference if ya kinda unsure what ya wanna do

as for panicking bout it there`s no real point ya only have a certain amount of time and just do the work during that time and then ya can at least have the comfort ya made a descent effort

thats my 2cents anyways

Raskolnikov

Honours Maths - Need to work on line/circle/vectors/complex numbers and induction and series, i reckon i will get some kind of a B
Honours English - Haven't done a tap but should get B
Honours Physics - Only starting to learn it all now, another B
Honours Chemistry - Same as above
Honours Applied Maths - Have a lot done, should get a B in that too
Honours Economics - Nice and easy subject, hoping for an A
Honours History - Definetly going to get a B, hoping for an A here

Man U babe

I've decided to stop caring bout english once I pass I'm ok! Ditto irish, its pass anyway. have to cram accounting+french. have realised I'm fairly set for maths, app maths, physics, chemistry (i want a1s in all 4) but need a bit more work anyway.

Nietzschean

ah only A1's in those 4? sure tis quite possible to get 100% in applied maths, phyics and chemistry....harder in maths...but like i want a few of those little certs for 100%
