I have no time either, I need to find sometime during the day after school to go for a walk, it'd help waken me up too I suppose. But the amount of weight I've put on is ridiculous.
I'm so used to eating what I want without any repercussions but now my metabolism (Sum of all chemical reactions in an organism. A bit of biology revision right there! :P) is slowing down.

If your feeling tired during the day/feeling fatigue. I really really recommend taking 'Pharmaton' (about 10 euro for a months supply in pharmacies) for a while. I was having really bad fatigue in the run up to Christmas and went back on for about a week and a half and feel great ever since. (But I have cleaned up my diet this past while so its helping too.
)
I stop taking it when I feel back to normal though during the days. I don't see the need for it.

Trust me, my grades werent all that spectacular :P
All HL:
Maths - 72 - 100 points
English - 78 - 80 points
Irish - 78 - 80 points
History - 82 - 85 points
Geography - 68
- 70 points
Business - 79 - 80 points
French - havent gotten it yet ¬_¬ should be better than geo anyways!
*crawls under covers with no intention of surfacing*
Can I swap brains? Mines not particularly bad... just lazy
I shall have to work so I dont feel too bad!!0 -
Gwan sure! Working is almost enjoyable at this point, knowing I'm doing things right etc :P
88 in French, SO happy I got my A :cool: It'll go up or down depending on my oral/aural results which I really dont have estimates on. I was a bit disappointed because I got 60/60 and 57/60 on the comprehensions (somehow!) but 21/30 and 22/30 on the written sections
One reason was that I should have used the subjunctive tense...we havent done it though. :L
So assuming I stay at an A2 (but may even get elevated to an A1, who knows :P) I have 515 points with room for improvement in English (hoping for an A2 or a B1) and geography (got a C1 but the test was nothing like the LC exam and my teacher said I'm on my way to an A or something :P). History will probably fall but ah well 0 -

5 mocks down 5 to go.
Can't wait to see the results.. just to see how well/bad i do by studying literally just the night before. XD I'm sorta excited!!
Well done!Gwan sure! Working is almost enjoyable at this point, knowing I'm doing things right etc :P

Which course are you doing to become an biology teacher? O: Cause I was thinking about becoming a biology and an ag science teacher but i don't understand how you go about it.EmptyWithMe wrote: »Now that I'm thinking about biology teaching, I'm so happy! I think I know what I'll do next year. 0 -

Thank you
Well done! Ja know those premocks.. were they actually like real exams or were they just like christmas tests with only a few topics? Just wondering.. They werent actually premocks, just Christmas tests. History/Geography/Business had stuff from 5th year and 6th year but definitely nowhere near the real leaving cert - maybe history but the other two not so much :P Maths was exam papers and French was mock questions but not a whole mock paper, so I know that those results arent brilliant indicators but I'm pretty happy anyway :P
And good luck with your mocks! Seems mad early to have them!0 -

Ohhh okay! Cause I was wondering.. like if you did have tests similar to the real exams that'd be like TWO SETS OF MOCKS!! Which would be horrible. :pac:
And it is early yeah but I'm actually pure happy now!! I can get straight down to business and study when they're over. Imma see what i get in these mocks first and then post the presumably horrible points I'd get. XD Haha jaysus. It's gonna be interesting, I'll tell ya that. :pac: 0 -

You can do a general science degree and then the hdip after. That's the easiest way really. It's what my biology teacher did anyway, and what I've been told to do.. 0 -
(My English teacher, holding a <pound of sausages and half a dozen eggs> ''Now lads, I won't tell ye what's coming up on the mocks, but if ye had a look at this, ye would be doing well... okay?''
You've gotta love him
Mod note: Absolutely NO discussion of content of any mocks papers in any thread but the designated Mocks thread, and then only with spoilers!0 -

It's at no. 4 at the moment. xD But the thing i dislike about them science courses is the fact that they have maths as a proper subject in them. sickener of my life!!! :eek: 0 -

As Superbus said, yes.
You can also change them all (still for free) between sometime in May and July 1st, so you have a while to think about it some more.
