    Bah I'm so unprepared for the mocks...but rather than studying for them I come online to moan and bitch and whinme about how badly I'm going to fail.


    Beats studying :)

    Awhhh me too! And complain about the little amount of studying I am doing when I should be doing it instead of telling the world about not doing it!

    My Mocks are quite late - they don't start until some time in March and end the day before St.Paddy's Day!

    But it all depends on your school.

    Now, now. Talk to mumsie and dadsie :v: and ask them for assistance. Claim you've never done formal exams before and would appreciate their help and patience. Agree something with them that if you do X amount of study and get Y grades in the mocks that you will be given peaceful use of your room for study without aggravation from your siblings / forgiven chores / allowed have a night out / whatever floats your boat.

    Now if you actually have a problem studying, ask for someone who is good at that subjec to help, be that, parent, sibling, cousin, neighbour, etc.

    Haha yeah, I suppose. But I'm just over my Christmas exams and I kinda want a break.

    God, I thought my school was the only one starting really early. I thought most were after midterm. Mine start the 31st, so ten days. Haven't done enough work. Still have another week to get work done but I know I won't be that bothered. When it comes to my results I will be!

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭PurpleFistMixer
