    Well, you can only answer the English paper in English anyway, so I presumed it must be something else ... maybe not! :pac:

    no it doesn't matter , you can only answer it in english but the answer booklet is the same for every subject ! so thats the only reason its there.

    It's so hard to focus on the rest of the exams when you feel (and know) you did crap in your first one already (English paper 1 and paper 2) .. :( Need some inspiration. :| Anyone any good advice?

    You really just have to think how thinking about an exam you have already done and can't change now is wasting your study time , think that if it didn't go well you need to put alot of effort into the next exam get the books out haha i'm know its alot easier said than done but i just have to be harsh with my self and say worrying isn't going to help my next exam result

    Our examiner is a bit odd :L

    During the engineering exam, she took out a ruler and started measuring the size of the tables, then she went over to the wall and measured a block and counted the blocks :p I presume she was trying to find out the area of the room :L

    I second deise_girl's impassioned plea for help. Tomorrow will be the worst day of these 2 weeks and I think I am not far off rocking away in the corner, sucking my thumb in the foetal position while I lament my lack of both knowledge amd preparedness for tomorrow.

    My phone and wallet were stolen from my bag during English paper two. And, you know, incidentally, there is now a sizeable hole in my bedroom wall. The moral is to watch your shít.

    But hey, Hopkins came up.
