    Whenever I think of the amount of work that needs to be done between now and Wednesday week I feel a strange pins and needles sensation.......

    A few generous tablespoons of Benylin with codeine will make that sick feeling just disappear.

    That is a little harsh cson, maybe s/he has done plenty of work but is feeling a little low. Don't worry you will be fine.

    I suppose a shot a valium would help you too if you wanted to be really relaxed.

    I am for my Irish Paper II as I'm pretty much screwed. Doesn't help the fact I'm doing my driving test directly after it.

    Put these exams into perspective, and look at them for what they really are to calm yourself:)
    failing that, plenty of sleep.

    Well I might as well go and practise a bit of yoga while I'm at it.

    People who cry before their leaving cert should really get a good smack across the face. If you fail, woopdie do, you can always repeat.

    Lads im a repeat ive done this all before and I can honestly tell ye as important the leaving is its not all its cracked up to be. And I found last year in the final week I got so much work done and that was probably due to the nerves. Like someone else is there is always the option of repeating if exams dont go your way. This year has gone so much quicker than when I first did it last year.
    Is anyone else thinking of doing civil and environmental engineering in UCC?

    Really??? You've been saying for weeks that you're sick of studying and just can't wait to get it over with. And em, on that subject Mr Macbeth, I'm sure you'll do fine in English!

    Getting kinda nervous myself now. I keep thinking there's no way in hell I'll get my course. Maybe if I er... got off the internet.....

    Little bit harsh?? Failing means putting yourself under the same pressure for yet another year, staying behind while all your friends go off to college, learning new courses etc etc. Leaving Cert causes unreal stress, crying is therapeutic and helps to relieve stress - so maybe give people a break? Failing may not be the end of the world, but it's not something to take lightly either.
    Hard luck with the Driving Test date btw

    Still I heard of a story where with 15 mins left in Maths paper one this girl was just starting her last question, realised she wouldn't get it done, broke down crying, in hysterics etc.

    Unknown to everyone another guy was also starting his last question with 15 mins left. In all the commotion it was 12:15 before they started collecting papers. That lad got the question done.

    Worst thing you can do is start to feel sorry for yourself. Tough **** like, most people in the country have to go through this. Use the fear of failing to get you studying if you have to.

    I don't personally care. It's ma opinion, and its your own fault if you haven't studied. If I fail, I don't really care, the leaving cert has plenty flaws in it. No problemo... Thanks for the words of encouragement for the driving test - makes me more motivated mwhahahahaha.
