I was less nervous about the actual exams then i am now. I didn't sleep properly last night. I'm almost 100% sure i didn't get my points...

the night before last i had the most horrible dream...i actually got an A1 in honours english and an A in pass Irish...why horrible you ask?

Because Wednesday will be a real disappointment in comparison to my dream.

Uuuuugh Physics...... noooooo im so not looking forward to this result, it was such a horrible paper

And English because i have no idea how it went, could be alright.....OR ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE!!!!!

Not expecting much for physics or music. Probably failed physics. Ah well. Get to do it again as part of a course if I get my first preference ...

anything goes

The only thing I know I did well in is Maths because I dropped to pass after the mock and found it fairly easy, everything else I did rubbish in. I was really disapointed with T.D. it was always my best subject but I found the paper horrible if I get a C in it now I'll be happy.

jackjack555

yea english is by far the most difficult to predict. its very much dependent on the personality of the examiner imo

DtotheK

for TG, applied maths, physics worry very much so i do.




aced english..

kisaragi

Ah English... A1 in the mocks and now thinking I might get a b3 or something like that... just could be taken so wrongly I feel like nerves ruined my LC lol...

I had my first results dream last night... eep... a sure sign of anxiousness

oh god. business went brutal. french was ok!!
well good luck to everyone. what is every1 doing tues nite??

curlysue18

I thought business was most delightful!! i think i'll do best in that..

i'm verrrrrrry worried about biology result tho, not my best subject by a long shot:(

any1 doing LCVP?? i'm hoping for a distinction so i can use those 70 points, instead of whatever meagre amount of points i recieve for biology....

hopefully all will turn out well:rolleyes:



Tuesday night - probably toss and turn in bed worrying about what tomorrow morning will bring :eek:

I did LCVP. If i dont get a distinction I shall be very disappointed. VERY disappointed.

Four days to go. Not looking forward to results. I thought I was going to do great in English but I chose a short story. Why did I do that? And I answered on Sylvia Plath which it turns out everyone else in the country did too!

I had studied so much for History and then hated the paper. Last years chief examiner's report went on about opinions. There was no chance of an opinion in any of my topics. I never expected to do well in biology, did pass maths which I'm not counting, destroyed my chances of Spanish at the oral exam and couldn't sit up straight for the pain in music composition but I thought if I got up and left I'd never be able to sit back down.

So yeah. Not looking forward to the results.

exactly what i did for english, and as soon as i was about a quarter way through it i was wondering why the hell i chose that but it was too late to start a new thing. mine was primary school quality.

My english essay was terrible also!

I wrote about something wayyyyyyy off the point of the title, well i didn't intentionally but i took modern shopping centre as some metaphor yokey!!

That will only account for around 30 of my lost marks however so that's not the only part that went wrong!

Oh god! They are closing in fast now!:eek:

*belle*

For me and many others (by the sounds of it) physics was a joke.....who knows what wednesday will bring though.
hmmm not holding my breath on that one.

also kinda curious to see how i did in maths and italian.

Thought Physics was a piece of piss compared to chatting up my old teacher tonight roll on Wed

Normally I manage to do half decent short stories but as I was writing it I just knew the examiner was going to think a twelve year old had snuck into the exam hall. I'd say my spelling added to it.

I had my first (and thankfully only) Leaving Cert dream a few days ago. My results came in Harry Potter grades. I had to get to the CAO offices (in Scotland!) to try to get them to except my results. They kept saying that they wouldn't take results based on fictional exams.

I had almost the same dream except I had little stars in columns instead of grades. It was almost like an airline ticket without any writing.
Apparently the stars told my junior cert french teacher that I didn't get the required points...

I had a drem last nite too. I dreamt that I got a D2 in business bcoz I failed it in my mocks. But I didn't look at any other reuslts on the page, for some reason all I wanted was that D2.

GurlyGurl

I have definitely failed History. I'm so embarrassed. My only consolation is that it was Higher Level!! SO I'm dreading that. Also OL Chemistry. Didn't study the soap experiment and I nearly had a heart attack when it came up. Irish wasn't great becasue I did HL till May '07 and then dropped and I wasn't really prepared. French (HL) listening was ROCK HARD.

OMG help!

You thought the french listening was hard?
I thought it was really easy.. so much better then the mock!

I am absoloutely screwed in Bio.. I regret that I slept through all those classes.. and prolly shouldv done more study then the night before (no lie)
I just listened to that thing on 2fm.. where they talked about the exam.. and what they thought might come up! Legend of a programme!

em.. what else.. slightly worried that I wont pass maths.. (pass maths) .. Would you believe only 5 people in my year outta.. around 90 do honours?.. but yeah.. im worried about that.. and.. yeah thats it.

LCVP = biggest waste of time ever! Seriously.. what possessed me to take it .. is beyond me!

I also had a dream last night.. but all these subjects that I dont even take came up.. wirey!

oh god, History! *bursts into tears* I was counting on that for an A1. Then Wilfred Owen showed up on the paper.
And English, my Macbeth question was a disaster:(
and I know I screwed up in music harmony, I just know it.
F*ck it, I just wanna get my results so I don't have to bear the torture of waiting any longer.....

In these situations I usually find the 7-11 method of relaxation is useful. That is breathe in for 7 seconds and breathe out for 11.

2 days left. Good luck to y'all.

jackjack555

dont think anything could relax me at this stage!!

does anybody know if i will be penalised in geography for having 1007 words in my project instead of >1000 ?? has been bugging me all summer
