    Heart started pounding like crazy last night but it's been fine so far.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,299 ✭✭✭paulmclaughlin


    Starting to freak out a bit myself, troubles sleeping and what not...

    Pretty nervous. I tend to worry a lot and get myself worked up about little things, never mind the Leaving Cert! I didn't get any sleep last night but hopefully will tonight.

    Not nervous tbh. I'd say 3 mainly because i just can't sleep well lately so i'm scared it might affect my performance.

    I channel my nerves through hysteria, like laughing wildly at completely unfunny things and such. THankfully I don't really feel that nervous at all other than that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,264 ✭✭✭✭Fireball07


    I'm definitely a 1 now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 700 ✭✭✭nommm


    10. I thought I was going to get sick this morning.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 199 ✭✭PurpleVintage


    Today - 1... underline the word 'all'
    Tomorrow - probably 2/4.

    I don't wanna think about anything that comes after that!

    Ps. I had such a bad blankout during the exam that I was almost unable to think of any words that aren't COMPLETELY simplistic and (too) ordinary, and couldn't even structure my sentences properly. Still can't, dunno whats happening. If I dont make sense, there's yer answer, I swear its temporary :rolleyes:

    You'll be grand. Just give it the "full tilt" and you'll "touch base" eventually!

    Why are you tellin' people you plan on leavin' your exams early..to be cool or something?:rolleyes: & Why do you plan on leavin' them early?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 494 ✭✭PJelly


    Last night I was about a 7.
    But actually walking into the exams, I was about a 2. It honestly just felt like a christmas exam.

    Oh, except for a little voice inside my head screaming "DON'T F**K UP DON'T F**K UP


  • Registered Users Posts: 251 ✭✭brian93


    Afraid of messing up and repeating rather then being nervous


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 50 ✭✭lisabisa


    I'm a repeat so I get random stages of nerves, and then it all calms down.
    until the nerves come back , ahah. ****ing up twice won't look that good. :P

    Meh, close enough.


  • Registered Users Posts: 402 ✭✭roguey


    I was pretty nervous this morning before the exam, but then I realised it's paper 1, which really isn't too bad.

    But tomorrow...freaking out about it right now, that probably will remain throughout the exam, hate paper 2. Cant wait for it to be over, after that, I'm not too worried about any other exam...maybe Biology :rolleyes:

    Not nervous at all.
    Really, truly, honestly do not give a flying f*ck.
    Feel sorry for people who need the points for college, just a load of stress I think.
    Apprenticeship sorted, can't wait to be shot of the place.:cool:

    It`s not a prediction, if i`m not finished be that time i`ll be leavin simple as, work is more important to me than the LC


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,734 ✭✭✭J_E


    Would you not try your best anyway and stay until the end? Whether or not you need the points, the points might stand to you years down the line if you're out of a job. Don't just throw it away.
