Just do your best. There's little else you can do really. Worrying about meeting other people's expectations of you won't help in the slightest.LittleMissLost wrote: »Lads ive just realised I'm actually F****D!!!

Well there's loads of different opinions on this but everyone has to do what suits them in the end.
Last year I had everyone telling me to 'take it easy' before the exams and get a good nights sleep. That wasn't happening when there was stuff I had yet to set my eyes on.
Slow and steady pace of study is all well and good, but if you haven't been doing that up till now, people telling you not to cram gets very annoying!
If you think you can stay up all night, then do that, some people can.
And never fear, there's time to learn plenty yet!
Cramming hasn't remained so popular for no reason 0 -

What! Why?:eek:
Because I got 480 in the mocks and all my family & friends are just presuming I'm gonna get that! Such pressure! And to make it worse my stepmum keeps saying I'm going to get 555 (which I am NOT) and that she'll buy me a car and all this crap.
It's never going to happent and I'm just under so much pressure and I know I wont meet their expectations! Hate this pressure it really gets me down 0 -

Just put them out of your mind for this month. Do your best etc As long as you get what you want, thats all that matters right?
Fairplay for getting over 400 in the mocks!0 -

I am in the same boat LittleMissLost. I know I should have started much earlier and I ain't even studying now (seem to have no motivation). Just remember at the end of the day the whole point of the lc is that you get into the course you want. In 10 years (sorry to say it but people at not gonna ask about your results).
The other day my brother was going back to England and he had a chat about the lc ..... Twas a very serious one and we never really have serious chats.... He was just don't stress/panic at the end of the day it. Is only the leaving cert. Now while I have ALOT of pressure coming from my parents I know that at the end of the day ass long as I am happy with what I get thats all that matters.
Expectations are alot of pressure and alot of the time they can send you in the opposite direction.... That's what happened to me.
I know that if your happy then your parents will be happy so just do the best for you! And it's never to late you can get alot done and I am sure that you have alot in your brain from your pres just try triggers to get it out!
Hope this helped0 -

Well what I did just their was got a piece of paper and wrote down what I think at this Precise moment I will get in each subject ..... I was surprised at what it came out at...... A bit to go like but it may make you feel abit better.
And don't be negative about a subject 0 -
Hoping to do Psychology in Galway next year, will need at least 525. I've always been a crammer and the despite countless promises to myself this year, we're now 3 days out and I find myself in an eerily familiar situation
As well being a world class procrastinator(really hate that word), I'm also a massive boxing fan. I'm trying to hype myself up into a mind-state where I'm heading into the 12th round, behind on all the judges cards, and in need of a knockout, lol. Just gotta lay it all on the line at this stage, go hell for leather. It's doable
I have one pass subject(Maths) and one bastard child subject (French) so I pretty much need A's in everything else - it's gonna be fun...0 -

I feel the same- so angry with myself, it's not as if I was doing much else.:rolleyes: It would've been so easy to have been doing bits and pieces a few weeks or months back and be sorted by this stage. It's really not worth the stress right now.
I'm just going to do all I can over the next few days. Panic is motivating me a bit atm, so will hopefully do half-decently in a couple of subjects and pass the rest.0 -

Bit in bold is precisely how I feel- I've never done anything but cramming, but always told myself that once it mattered (i.e now!) things would be different.:rolleyes:
Once a crammer, always a crammer.0 -
