:O You have no idea how lucky you are... We have 2 doubles and a single a week, with the single being all art history. I didn't do art for my JC so I'd kill for some more practical classes.

Ahh same amount of classes here but we do loads of practical, doing puppets atm in the doubles and calligraphy in the single class, think we're doing some art history after xmas though.

Damn that's lucky. We're still having 2 hour long tests, in most subjects we haven't finished what we have to study yet...tests start on thursday. Irish is the only one I know I'll do bad in though

Are mine just early, they were over 2/3 weeks ago. Already have all my results back and everything...

605 (counting the 25 bonus points for maths)
A1 - Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English
B2 - Spanish, Religion, App Maths, Irish

Was hoping for App Maths higher, but really I can't complain, I'm delighted

Physics is hard! The motion chapters are so badly laid out, I can't follow anything.:mad:

Do you do applied maths? Its alright I think if you've done, apparently its just an easier version of it...

Haven't done the motion in physics myself yet, we did the light chapters, now the more detailed light/sound waves... then doing motion i think

Chuchoter

Yeah I do applied maths and I'm ok at it, there just seems to be different formulas about force that applied maths doesn't have. Its just difficult to find where anything is. :S

Yeh probably just my school and their weird ass decisions... Awwh ty, good luck with yours!

Is there a trick to getting the part c's on the HL maths right? I look at the solutions and they're fairly obvious but I can never do it on my own :S

Well they are Christmas Tests. I was surprised so many people had already gotten their results.

Ok so I'd say our teachers were snowed in all weekend or something as they've all given back the tests today with really detailed feedback. I'm pretty happy but I wonder are the results anywhere on a par with the Leaving. They offered tips but a few of us left as we didn't want them so I didn't know what was up on them but obviously is only about a quarter of the courses so eh...easier.

Drum roll please,
580 points, actually no word of a lie I'm peeved cos I really thought I worked my ass off. I dunno sometimes, got 100% in my Gaeilge, he he! And same in psychics. But was annoyed with English.

How are the rest of ye fairing? I'd do anything to get 600 next year.

Coeurdepirate

If I get over 400 in these tests my life will actually be perfect. I did so little study

Have one more test left tonmorrow.. Can't wait till it's over

Mine finished today, trust me, tomorrow is gonna be the biggest relief of your life!

Is it just me or were these tests about seventy times more stressful than the JC?

Awh you're so lucky. I know I can't wait. I'm sooo sick of them.
Ya i didn't think they would be as stressful. For me their definatly not as bad as the JC. Wish I'd studied for them though

Not sure if you've an interest but free lesson by my grinds lady online just since yesterday if interested. I'm fricking wrecked but still going to book in for it as is in a month! All ya need is a mic and webcam. Feicfidh mé thú ansin!!! Pass on the word cos she is paid to do free classes and she will do more if the demand is there and is well worth making sure she gets more classes to do. If you've any questions or anything she's very good at answering what you actually ask, unlike many teachers! PM me for details cos I don't want messers joining up and ruining my classes with her, I need an A1 for medicine so am throwing myself into the languages this year.

Joey.

My report arrived today, I did a lot better than I should have given the amount of studying I've been doing
A2 in maths woo

thetonynator

How much study is everyone doin?

seriouslysweet

Three hours a day, quality not quantity. Plus a mock Irish and mock French oral.

BagheeraK

3 hours a day!! ..fair play! I've done zero so far, apart from a bit of night before cramming for the Christmas tests, it's been great

seriouslysweet

I want 6 A1s, end of. I'm prepared to work for them. I generally fo 11-1 each morning and an hour in the evening. It's not hard and I'm hoping I'll be ahead going back. I'd love to go away for 6 weeks this Summer so I won't have time then and might aswell do it now.
