I don't get hangovers, so it's working well

You do, you're just not drinking enough, which isn't a bad thing.:)

On topic: It is stressful at times but if you work consistently and enjoy yourself too you'll be grand.

I can't wait until we are finished, so we can laugh at all these words

• Mocks
• Timing
• Marking Schemes
• Technique
• Structure/Plan
• Coherence
• Definition
• Experiment
• Equation
• "To be learned off by heart"
• Orals
• Tapework
• Essays

etc.

I hate the fact we still get so much homework and they expect us to study, but you can't just not go out anymore, we do need and deserve breaks, alcoholic breaks

Yeah right! I bet you wouldn't go out on an alcoholic break even if a friend begged you to do so. :P

I think it's the tiredness that is the hardest part of it all. It's mentally and physically exhausting even thinking about studying, marking schemes, points, college everything.. it's a wonder we've all not gone totally insane yet! :eek:

If only that were true. I wouldn't be able to let myself get so, well let's just say I've had trouble getting home...

wow that is soooooooo depressing.I couldn't imagine doing that,I plan on getting sooo drunk so i'll forget about the last year!!!!:D

zam

I can imagine being way too tired to even think about going out :P if the mocks are anything to go by...

DancingQueen:)

I finish a few days before my friends so I probably won't be doing much until everyone else finishes too. I might do something with the people who have finished the same day as me but I can't see drink being involved as we'll all be wrecked

zam

Yeah that's the annoying thing, I finish quite early, which isn't really a good thing...

I have like 4 days between my last 2 exams, which is technically great but gonna be so annoying!

I'd almost prefer to have breaks inbetween the exams because all of mine are too close together. I've no days off and two exams most days which is pretty horrible!
I see what you mean though, you'll be wishing to get it over and done with. I can't wait until it's over either!

NufcNavan

I have a week before my last exam.

Trust me, you will be so glad of that break come June.

zam

Just scared I'll get lazy in between my two exams :P

If the mocks taught me anything it's how unbelievably tiring exams are...

Completely lost routine!
Last week has been a waste. How do you guys get up early and study?

Verry loud alarm clock, mam threatening me on request with water gun, prospect of rice crispies....

Anyone else just stopped caring? Like for some reason I stopped being serious about the leaving cert. I can't study properly anymore either. Something's seriously gone wrong.
