    On a scale of 1 to 10, how easy has the LC been for you? I cant get over how handy it is, and have no reservations about giving it a solid 3. I am delighted with it so far - I was fearing Geography the most but after doing the exam today, I bloody love it. :cool:

    Going fantastically so far, haven't had a single paper that I didn;t like yet. 10 for 10.

    If easiest was 1 and hardest was 10

    I think Raphael meant 1.

    And add how many points your aiming for, so we can actually know if theres a reason it was easy for you... ;)

    Im goin for 480 in Trinity.

    Maths was a bit of a bastard. Other than that, fairly simple.

    With 1 being the hardest, 10 the easist:

    Overall, we'll give it a 7. As regards stress levels and such, 9.

    Using 10 as best, about 7. I would've said 8 or 9 before that diabolical Maths exam. I'm going for 520.

    No, I think you forgot to specify a scale of any kind and I assumed you meant 10 good 1 bad. Like swimmers, when people hold up the signs.

    And I need 435, but I'm aiming for 550

    Well if I gave it a 3, and said I found it easy....use your common sense.

    1 = Easy
    10 = Hard


    Jesus, you have to spoonfeed some of these people...

    Common sense isn't as common a commodity as you'd think. =p

    Maths has pretty much ruined everything. And it's not going fast like they said it would. And I haven't studied for French yet. And I'm using and at the start of every sentence.

    I would say about 5....not particularly hard but I'm disappointed!
    I need 505 but I would like 555! It's a nice round number!

    It's a looking fairly likely.....which is uber depressing, because I'm 18 now (did ty) so it would be fan-fu(kin-tastic if I had to repeat :cool:

    Sure dunno what I want to do, that's why I figure I didn't take leaving seriously, I didn't feel I had/have to work towards anything, everyone else knows how many/points/honours/pass etc they need, whereas I'm like, jaysus I better not fail :rolleyes:

    It's extremely overrated! The hype around the thing is absolutly crap! I'm finding the stress waay more difficult to cope with rather than actually sitting down and doing the exams!
    Roll on thursday!!
