Exams
 
Dreaded time of the year, exams are here! :sad:

I have my first biology paper (60 mins) tomorrow followed by my physical geography paper (90 mins) on Tuesday.

Actually feeling pretty confident for my bio, in mocks Ive got D > low C > high C so hopefully I can get a B in the real thing! Geog on the other hand, dayuuuuuum, even though its my favourite subject I just cant get the case studies around my head :'(


Good luck guys who have them!!!

Advice on Geo, make it up if you can't remember it like, as long as you can remember the basics of what happened and how bad it was, the figures don't really matter as long as they're in the right region

'Conor 15-05-2011 04:33 PM

mine start June 8th :(

Shaun 15-05-2011 04:34 PM

Good luck!

I have one Friday afternoon (Sociology) and one next month (English Language)...as much as I don't want to jinx it, I should get As :tongue: have done for my mocks, and I'm like 2-3 years older than everyone else there LOL
Did a finance one on Tuesday too.

Ive been told this but Ill panic and make a place like 'penistown' up or something daft rofl. Might just forget about figs tbh, too many to learn off-by-hearf. What did you get Smithy? :)

Smithy 15-05-2011 04:35 PM

I didn't exactly concentrate in sixth form and left with only one A Level. So I've gone to college to build up the other 2 (and some extras) :p

MTVN 15-05-2011 04:37 PM

I've just got Economics, History & English, and I did well last year and on my coursework so I'm not as worried as a lot of people, as long as I dont mess them up badly I should get the grades I need

Oh ****ters :/

I think I can blag human quite well but Ive read physical mock questions and I just cant think of much to say for the 25 mark essay at the end o.o
Which 1 you get the C in?

Harry! 15-05-2011 07:50 PM

Jords 18-05-2011 11:54 AM

Biology went alright, think I got that B, and Physical Geog went better than I expected, maybe a high C/low B :)

I have an exam everyday next week :bawling:
Chemistry 1
Human Geog
Method Psychology
Biology 2

Then a 10 day gap until Study Cases Psychology, not gonna bother revising for that until then :tongue:

Just one exam left to go for me before I've finished 2nd year of uni, how the time flies! Last one's on Friday.

DrunkerThanMoses 18-05-2011 12:14 PM

Cheers Jon :)
I know, telling me!

Jords 07-06-2011 02:53 PM

Had my last exam just now! Psychology!
All the right things for me crept up, was easy, woooooooooooooo :amazed:

Patrick 07-06-2011 02:55 PM

My exams finish tomorrow.

They aren't GCSE's though - just ones that decide what GCSE level [Foundational or Higher] you go in.

Everyone is all 'Ahh I hate exams'.
But I love them sfm.

The days go so quicker, I just sit there with my iPod in listening to it on shuffle for 6 Hours straight - and then you get loads of days off to Study.


Exams FTW.

Jords 07-06-2011 02:56 PM

Youre allowed iPods in your exams???????

'Conor 07-06-2011 02:57 PM

my exams start tomorrow, english exam is 5 hours long :(

CharlieO 07-06-2011 03:06 PM

Im on study leave for exams and I miss school so much. I miss the lessons and teachers. :(

Nope, they search you for Phones and iPods.

But I have to go to a separate hall - for kids with disabilities and mental illnesses and that - and you do it there and they don't search you.

So I put my iPod earphone up my sleeve and my iPod in my shirt pocket - then I put my hand beside my ear and lean on the desk; which I always do anyway rofl.

So they don't suspect a thing. :love:

Lewis. 07-06-2011 03:23 PM

On study leave but only have 1 exam left :)
