Seriously?!? It's a bit late, after the orals like
tell them to fúck off. Why do they think you have them? :P 0 -

EXACT SAME. I just got one asking for Chemistry, History and Accounting. Eh píss off.
On a brighter note, have just looked through stuff there and realised:- 25% of French is Done
- 40% of Irish- Done
- 50% of Music- Done
- 20% of Geography- Done
- 60% of LCVP- Done
That's a massive amount, and it's all happened the last 2 weeks. Finally handed up Geography and LCVP today, and let me tell you, sealing up those envelopes was every bit as delightful as I thought it would be! Never have to see/think about Geography/LCVP Portfolios again!!
Just realised that 22% of the Leaving Cert subjects I may count is done!
:eek:
Now, just the exams which I hope will go fairly well with a bit more revision and it's off to college to study Contract Law! :P
OPTIMISM- FTW :P0 -

Physics is a bitch of a subject. I work and I work and I never get anywhere.
Papers, papers, papers
only discovered recently how it actually is SO much better to work through papers occasionally using the book for reference than just reading the book.
What our teacher tells us is: learn all experiments very well. It's not that difficult because a lot of them are very similar. Okay, that's 30% of your exam already.
Learn the Electron, Atom, Nucleus & Radioactivity, Fission/Fusion/Nuclear Energy and Particle Physics chapters. They are definitely the easier chapters compared to mechanics or electricity. In a good year you might have a whole 2.5 full questions on the paper based on these 4 chapters! In a bad year you will have at least one long question.
Then what I will do is revise light, heat, wave chapters. They are not overly difficult either and the odds are you will have enough to answer 5 questions in Section B.
We never even covered any of the Mechanics chapters in school and many people are gonna ignore electricity chapters too. It might catch you out a little bit in Question 5, but we should be fine.
Hope this helped a little bit 0 -

Arghhhhh maths is such a challenge. I hate knowing that this all makes perfect sense and I just cant see it at all!
Integration test got deferred to Wednesday and I'm thinking my maximum score will be 60% if I get full marks in the (a) and (b)'s - which is rather difficult for me, but the (c) parts dont even deserve mentioning :pac:
I'd love to get a B in the LC but I'd be happy with what I can get at this point!0 -

Thank you! I'm abandoning optics because I hate it, but my main questions will be waves, heat, electricity, modern physics and maybe mechanics depending on how I'm feeling.
My problem is maybe I haven't done enough stuff with the marking scheme, I'm always missing the bolded word even though I know the answer to the question. Like I know and understand all the stuff, but I'm always missing 3 marks here and 3 marks there! So frustrating.0 -
