    How are people set? I have three exams and will be finished 12th May. Sociology and History have gone fairly well but politics is pretty mind numbing all about socrates,plato etc. It gets stressful enough at times but i us the motivation of trying to avoid receiving the dreaded letters in the summer.

    I am unfortunately, but i'm not doing it next year. :D I'm the same i'm just learning definitions out of the main book and hoping for the best, she was meant to return our marks on sulis but there were problems with it, wish she didn't say anything now. Politics is tough too.

    Are you just using the slides as references as to what too look up?

    I dunno,Im on two thoughts of Politics,Its either going to be easy enough or dead hard :(.

    Yeah, have still a few more to get through. Did the same thing last semester with the slides and main book and got a B, would love the same again but if i don't have to repeat i'll be happy. I fell behind a bit on the politics book, so i'm learning the early greek stuff and plato and few others. :Z It will be tough alright i'd say but we have the short answer tests and the essay to help us out. I finished the tutorial report yesterday, hard enough :(

    Just got an e-mail a while back, sociology essay marks are up!


  • Registered Users Posts: 516 ✭✭✭Skyrim


    Feeling a lot more confident about the exams than I was on Monday, got sociology and politics back today. Good results, nothing outstanding, but have picked up a nice percentage in both, so hopefully no repeats if possible!

    Results are nearly upon us already, i just hope i don't get any letters from U.L the next week or so. I think i should be ok, worked hard enough, maybe not as hard as first semester. Geography, hard to say he only marked us on an essay, i hope he'll remember that i was one of the minority who showed up a lot to the lectures, politics was hard it was ancient greek stuff, sociology it's hard to tell i'm not doing it anymore and history was hard but i got good grades for essay work. Not pushed with academic writing. How are ye fixed?

    I need to do quite well to make up for a disasterous first semester. Have all yer grannies light candles for me :rolleyes:
