    OK, I have less than two weeks to pass my exams. I have not done all my essays and things look pretty bad. Even so, I am going to do my best to pass as I don't want to have to repeat. Does anyone know anybody who managed to pass their exams in a short space of time? I've heard stories of people who study minutes before an exam and get a pass. Lies? What do you think?

    :mad: Stop procrastinating, turn off your pc and start now!ok...start tomorrow, but stop talking about it and just get down and do it! :mad:



    eeep, ok scary skool-master voice over, but seriously, don't be looking for false hope, or magical instant remedies...the only solution unfortunately is studying...and at this stage cramming is your only option...Might need to bring your own seat with you to the library though, getting pretty full lately.

    Cruel to be kind..

    Remember books are your friends, use them wisely....

    Then throw them at the commerce eejits who play with their phones ALL THE TIME and talk incesstantly about the oc, fake tan, fiacra, dubes and how fabulously amazing they are.....grrrr....the library is a fiendish place...

    Breathe Alana, breathe...

    I'm exactly the same as you. Like you I'm a complete lazy bollocks who is wasting away doing fcuk all. :D

    One thing you've got to keep in your mind is that you only need 40% in all your subjects to get into next year unlike when you were doing you're leaving cert it was points points points. Luckily for me in two of my subjects I've already scored 15-16% through essays and assignments so that has taken the pressure off me a likle bit. I don't particularly care if fail any subjects. I should pass 2 of them but if I fail I fail.... there is always the repeats. :)

    The best advice you can get is to copy as many notes as you can off people in a very polite manner :rolleyes: and cram for the last week and a half. I can tell you for a fact that 80% of Arts students havent even looked at anything yet. Cramming is good for you. It worked for me for my leaving cert and it will work again...... er I really hope sho!!!
