Peg14's study log 2015

mock update:

Art Craft - Happy enough for what is only a mock exam. If it were the real thing, definitely not!!! But I've learned a few things so I don't really care!!

German - Okay, yes happy with German. Bit unsure about the last Q on comp A, might have lost stupid marks but anyways, whats done is done. Listening was okay but my writing was absolutely not :P Hopefully I won't lose too many marks on that.

Maths PAPER 1: Not too bad (in that I think I scraped a pass) I obviously want to do miles better for the real one.

Just music and maths P2 left

think I better start back the revision today. 4 days of four hours each seems all right to me - not too much

Need to get the following things done by Saturday

IRISH
* Sraithpictiurs 1-20 (1-5 today, 6-10 tomorrow, 11-15 Thurs and 16-20 Fri.)
* Oral Topics 1) Me Fein, Mo Cheantar.. 2)Mo Scoil 3)Mo Laethanta Saoire 4)Taisteal 5)Cursa/Gairm 6) Caitheamh Aimsire

GERMAN
* Role plays (1 each day)
* Picture stories (1 each day)
* Oral Topics

That's my plan from now till Fri. Will take weekend off. Midterm will probably be my last break until the LC is over.
If I have time, I will do some Maths exam papers. The Line/Circle needs lots of practice, I was good at this last year but this year, not really so need to fix that.

How to you learn the picture stories. Cant seem to learn them at all and have a test on 1-10 on Monday

Hey. I write them out in my own handwriting, read them a few times outloud, highlight the key words, and just try to recall them. Tbh I don't think this way is very effective, I struggle to recall anything when I start looking at another picture.

2 results back, quite happy

English - B2
Irish - B2

Feel like I deserved a B1 in English but my paper one literally dragged me down so much, I did really well in my paper 2 though. I just need to work funnily enough on my mechanics for paper one, that seemed to affect my composition mark a lot! I prepared nothing for P1 so I'm sure if I prepared a few things like quotes and interesting similes and stuff that would boost my mark up ten percent. QB was a disaster, I think I completely misinterpreted the task or something because I thought I had written a great piece in my exam, obviously not!

Irish, listening needs to be worked on. Very happy with essay mark, and An Triail and ofcourse the comprehensions. Poetry, feel like I deserved at least 26/30 and for prose obviously need to learn them.

Music Written - B3!!! Much more than expected:D Add practical mark to that and I thinks that about B2/B1

Maths back tomorrow:S

music exam was all right, happy enough, did all I could really

Head down for next two weeks starting monday with weekends off.
Not sure how many hours I should be doing a day?
Made a timetable, lets hope I can stick it to it.
If I pass the interview (after passing the entrance exam) then I will need to up my mocks by 35 points. Hopefully i'll improve my maths from here to june.

Well study log long time no see

Since then I've really slacked off quite a bit however I'm determined now!!!

Craft exam today went okay I suppose, nothing disastrous. Still life tomorrow, then Life drawing. Should be better, definitely.
Going asleep now, after Art is finished, gonna be stuck in for the last 3 and half weeks, lots of focus on biology now, and maths.

1. Deachrachtai ag Daoine Oga
Spórt

2. Maths Paper 1 questions.

Didn't know much really tired.
Yesterday got all poems and pros revised and the music Melody so grand with that

just want to add that I'm really enjoying maths study!! is that pure nuts

Actually I want to add my goal grades too. Last year my course was 425 or something but its really dropped in the last 2 years so I son't know what to expect, though it shouldn't rise too much I believe

Ok so here we go yo

Art: B1/B2 (But preferably b1 )
Happy with Practical. Though, you can never tell how you did, especially with that insanely picky marking scheme. Overall I feel I achieved a b3/b2 in it, so with really hard work with Art History I hope I can secure this mark.

Maths: C2-B3
On a good day it could be a B, on a not so great day (but good day) it shall be a C. Definitely feel I'm getting more confident in the subject, as its coming more easier to me now with all the practice.

Irish: A2
Maybe I can get the A1 but I imagine it will be insanely difficult. Oral went really well for me, so here's hoping the written does too!

German: A2/A1
Anything less and I would honestly be disappointed. OK I didn't get the A in the JC, but I got the B1 the mocks, something like 83% and I made such stupid mistakes so I believe I can do it! This ofcourse depends on how I did in my oral which I hardly remember at this stage!

Music: B1/A2
A1 will be very hard, it will depend entirely on the day.

Biology: A2/A1
I believe in myself!! I still have mountains of work left to do though.

Then English. This is my backup subject so, not counting points for this yet.
I really want around 540, I feel I deserve it tbh I 've been a hard worker!!!

Should probably update this
How many days now?
4 and a half.
Feeling okay.
I feel 75% of the way there in every subject - I just need to get it all revised now
Today did Maths Questions, German Vocab and Listening, just finised Dickison and that's my first time learning her for an exam and I have to stay I'd love if she came up! Prefer her to Frost to be honest. Gonna do comparative now.
Later I will learn all Paper 2 Irish stuff.

Tomorrow then, its serious business! Gotta wake up at 7am. Going to do Irish Paper 1, Ni Chuilleanain, Maths, German Vocab and Listening and Georgian Era (and michelangelo) Now gonna stop procrastinating!

Finished

I guess a recap then
Art History: Really happy.
Music: Happy enough!!
German: Again happy enough.

Nothing went too rotten for me, maybe apart from Maths paper 2 but that was ages ago now so lets just forget about that
