    hey guys, do any of ye feel under a lot of pressure to do well? i do, especially from my silly parents - who probably never even did the leaving cert in their time! ive applied for two non-cao courses and one cao (arts in ucc). i want to get a good leaving but im incredibly lazy (thank you transition year). during midterm i think im gonna make a study plan for the next 18 weeks or so.

    Not really, Im just going with the flow.
    I was in study today and looked up and just said to myself "I hate this" and continued with my physics. Its just knowing that I can be having fun instead of studying really gets to me.. but theres only a few months left and should be able to stick it out :p

    not really at all, i feel like theres so much expected of me and i dunno if ill live up to that but hey, if i dont its not the end of the world i wanna do well for me not anyone else. theres no pressure to study all the time or anything, just do it and try not to stress-itll all be over soon!

    same no pressure here.. exactly what Azureus. The odd time I get a little stressed, but for example like I am in the middle of my mocks at the mo, and I ain't stressed at all.. And I got a portfolio to have dont by thursday. That cna be a little stressful. But its ok!:)

    never, i'm cool under pressure. should be studying for exams now which i have from wednesday on. (had them everyday last week too).

    i havn't failed any yet, and have an extremely good 'bluffing' ability so that gives me the confidence to tackle any question on any paper.

    plus i only need 80 points so that helps! i'll get 385minimum though.
