Default What am I doing with my life?

My exams start tomorrow!

I've done so little study, but yet here I am. On TiBB. If I fail, Mark - I'm blaming you.

Same. My Leaving Cert starts tommorow and I have zero study. Not worried though, I got 280 in the pre's and im doing a course for 250 points. All I need to really worry about is passing ordinary Maths.

I need 300 points, or 355 to dot eh course I really want. But I'm not getting my hopes up. I did awful in mocks. I'm trying not to think about points, and concentrate of passing subjects that I like - but yeh, I'm on here instead.

It's pretty easy for me because I have no specific course in mind, I just want to get into college full stop. So I have a load of these 190-290 point courses as level 6 & 7 choices on the CAO form thingy. Im doing all ordinary subjects except higher in History, Business & English.

Anyway, good luck!

I knew you couldn't stand away from TIBB, especially when BB is coming.

Good luck anyway, I was in the same position as yours last year and it all went well.

Good luck to you both! The mocks are much much harder than the real thing,believe me. I got 280 in the mocks and went up to 405 in the real thing.Although I did study my ass off for like a month cos I did nothing all year.

Exactly. Beyond the hype, and I hate to reccomend slacking to anybody, the Junior and Leaving Cert can be passed fairly easy if you were born with average and upwards intelligence. The only study I have ever done for exams has been night before study.

It's going to be great to walk into the same college as some of my mates who gave up entire chunks of their life to study, while I partied and breezed on through anyway. College is only a standby for me anyway. I plan to pursue my own musical interests alongside coursework, and hope to eventualy make a living off that.

Yeah, school isn't your life!
If you don't do well it's not the end of the world, but good luck anyway!
