    Don't answer that question, but realise, you were only cheating yourself.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,878 ✭✭✭Rozabeez


    Why the hell would you cheat in an exam? What are you going to do in the jc when there is no way of cheating? You'll also look like a fool if your grade goes down bigtime from the mocks to the JC.

    There are actually quite smart ways of cheating in the real thing, but posting them here would be stupid.

    Cheating your way through life is pointless, to me actual knowledge matters a great deal more than what your exam results say your knowledge level is.

    As for mocks, I've almost finished mine, last 2 tommorrow (history and maths). So far I've been quite disapointed not just with the difficulty of the exams but also the sheer number of people blatently cheating in my class - I don't usually mind but the mocks decide what class we get into next year, I don't want to be in a non-top class when some dude who cheated his way through is being taught by a great teacher.

    Fobia.

    I've thaught of quite a few (not that I was trying to think of some or anything) but I'm not gonna cheat in the JC..

    lmao.
    perhaps... perhaps, if you agreed with that statement more than me, you'd cheat all the time.
    EOS! (there's no way in hell I'm gonna try and explain that ^^^).

    I don't think they do in other schools so unless you're from Galway and go to my school I doubt you're in trouble :)

    I'm not too worried about the grades for the subject choices but the subject choices can be affected to in my school - if you don't do great in maths you shouldn't do applied maths for lc etc, that's what I'm worrying about as there's only one set of subject choices I can perform with (chemistry, physics, applied maths) so if I don't get them I'll have to pay an awful lot of money to do them outside of school :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭PurpleFistMixer


    Damn you and your school doing applied maths... I really really want to do it, but my school sucks too much. I might just end up doing it outside school...

    Anyway, I apparently started getting my mock results back on tuesday but since I was out tuesday and wednesday, I conveniently missed them...
    Got some today...
    So far,
    Irish 85%
    English 88%
    French 81%

    Pretty happy about english. They seemed to love my essay, which was great. Kinda disappointed about the whole french thing, since french is so crazily easy.

    Pretty much accurate, only replace girls with boys.

    It seems to be an incredibly unfair (well obviously not for me, but other people) turn of chance that I manage to do well in tests with minimal amounts of studying. For the mocks I basically studied crazily (well actually on the last ones I just got so tired of studying I stopped) the day before and hoped for the best. Normally I rarely study, if ever...
