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

God no. They'll only count it if it looks dangerously oover the word count. Then they might take cohesion marks away. I wrote 1125 instead of 1000, and it still looks within the limit..

this thread seems to be about nothing in particular! so...

during the exams i had some freaky dreams, (i dont like english)
and i was in my house doing the english paper, but i couldn't understand it, it was like a hardback colouring book with random crap in it! and i was ffreaking out! and my sister started playing an electric guitar(even though no one owns one in the family) and i managed to get around 5 lines written on each question and i felt so worried after it, and also when i woke up i was sayin" ****!!!!!!!! i screwed that up!!!" but soon realised my mind just played that horible trick on me!

Anyone know in general what the girl:guy ratio is actually like in general engineering(UCD/Trin)??
I just dont want to be deeply upset on my first day at a sausage fest and with no warning!)

I'm also going to add that i'm damn glad my psp broke in the month or 2 before the LC , otherwise i would have got (my actual result - ~100)points.

...

oh and while i'm at it, hairspray rocks!!!

Last night I dreamt I got an F3 in Classics, my one nearly dead certain A1 subject.

And yes I know an F3 doesn't even exist but i was still pretty upset!

Lol, serious anxiety issues.

Not bothered at the moment, just really want to know what I got! If I don't get my points I can always repeat.

fionated7

flonge

Im pretty much screwed for the whole lot!!lol!
I found the LC hard enough now,esp biology and english!
I hate that there is so much pressure on LC students!I personally will be turning my phone off untill I'm ready..I dont think I'll do well..

Good luck to everyone I hope all goes well!

With the possibility of being in the exact same position next year only worse?
Sorry for being an ass, but think long and hard before repeating the LC if you don't get the points.

Nah, it's not like that. i only discovered my 'perfect' course 3/4 of the way through 6th year, I hadn't really been trying, and was doing subjects I hated.

Worried about Irish HL, a fail is in order

Well, if that is the case then fair enough I suppose.
The weird thing is I have known my top choice since 5th year
If worst comes to worst, pick proper subjects at least:p

*btw, a fail in HL irish is probably hard to achieve like in English*

toastomatic

I picked the wrong subjects, I knew it from october in 5th year, but i wasn't allowed to change em...

Haha, I had a dream shortly before the exams that I fell and got a corkscrew stuck right in my head, and that my physics teacher walked right past me and just gave me a funny look, and I had to call an ambulance for myself from a phone box.

The first LCrelated dream I had was shortly before the orals. My school was about fifty times bigger than it normally is, and I went to do my French oral in the principal's office. We had paragraphs to read off, like you do in Irish. The examiner handed me a big toffee apple with numbers on it, and said, "bite off the bit that says three," so I took a big bite of it, and there was a piece of paper inside the apple, which I was meant to read. So, I took it out but it was written in Irish so I couldn't read it. Scary stuff.....
The second was about a week before English. We were doing the English paper, but we weren't in an exam hall. We were in my school, and also by a shopping centre that's near my school, and you basically just had to find a place to be comfortable, so people were just stretched out all over the place. My mother was there too, bizarrely. Anyway, I couldn't think of any essays to match the titles, so this sweet HDip from my school was gently encouraging me, so I started writing, but next thing I knew there were fifteen minutes left and I was only just starting the comparative *switching papers and everything!* I woke up in a cold sweat.....
God, panic dreams are the worst!

Strangely, I have yet to experience an LC related dream.

toastomatic

haha...thats terrible...I know how it is...
I hate the moment after a bad dream, when you think youre awake but you really aren't. Cos youre brain plays tricks on you and you're likely to think that theres something hiding under your duvet, like me the night before last. haha. The fear that I felt....lol
