Does it feel like it's your leaving cert?

Binomate

Myself and basicaly everybody in my year have been saying that it realy doesn't feel like we're doing our leaving cert. It doesn't feel like we've left school either.
Is this the same for you?

Kind of, the reason it doesnt feel like the leaving cert is because of the big deal that all the teachers have made of it over the past two years, its not all that bad.

No it doesn't feel like the leaving. To me its just like regular summer exams that I have to do before I can have fun. I'm annoyed at how uncaring I am.

*Angel*

Nope, doesn't feel like it.

I agree. After such a build up it now seems so insignificant.

Have a look at past papers. I only know the basics of each essay. I could just about waffle my way through each one. Hopefully I'll get each essay fully revised before wednesday. I have geography and maths p2 on monday

Was nervous the first day, but now it seems grand. I've done the work, so i shouldn't have too much to worry about.

YA - Biggest load of p iss ever. Exactly like any old summer exams except we get a more mouldified, drunken summer pis up than any other! then then

I think I was more worried about my junior cert actually. I think because there is such a huge build up and the leaving cert is made to sound like the end of the world, they're actually fine in comparison. I feel so relaxed it's ridiculous, my only panicky moments so far has been when I'm sitting there waiting to turn over my paper - but I'm fine onceI turn them over. thank goodness I'm not going to counting Maths, if I'd been counting on it I probably would have cried!

On a slightly different note, does anyone have any really annoying people in their exam room? There's a girl in my room who is making such a big deal out of the exams - she's the kind of person who, since the beginning of fifth year, has perfected that "the weight of the world is on my shoulders" attitude to work. Before each exam she does stretches, punches the air and get herself jizzed up. I mean, what the hell?
My friend was also telling me that there's sitting over on her left in her exam room who keeps tapping his pen off the desk when he's not writing, apparently it was driving her insane during the Maths exam!

That's like our supervisor... she's some looser! She's forever doing stretches, making faces, walking around slapping her arse. The funnest was when she was tying to kill a fly - she was chasing around the room after it trying to hit it! She had a look at the junior cert honours paper and '****' just came out of her mouth when she saw a question. She probably hadn't prepared her class for it.

Back on topic now, no it doesn't feel like the leaving at all! It just feels like another test or soemthing!

Not looking forward to Wednesday at all. I reckon I've done enough work for it but the idea of writing that much in so little time...not good.

Vikings

I dont know any history so im ok.

lestats_bride

Yep.It's weird. All the big deal thats made out of it but when it arrives it's just a normal day.

Da_IRISH_ONE4U

Em yeah actually... it does feel like its my leaving cert. I've never shítted bricks so much in my life!

I never really cared that much about summer exams - went in, passed and enjoyed my summer. The pressure now is unreal! - But that could also be my fault for not studying

I am the same, overly relaxed. But i think a reason why is because we will never really see the teachers again, nor a lot of the students. I was worried in the pre because i knew i would end up getting my results infront of my teacher and classmates. Well i will in august as well but thats miles away for now. Im just looking forward to the end of the LC really
