Good old Operations Management tomorrow. I'm strawberry floated if I don't revise my gooseberry fool.

Dayum. All my fault for letting my personal life affect my study too much.

I can't believe I got up at 5:30 this morning thinking my exam was at 9:00am when it was actually at 2:00pm :fp:
It went about as I expected, I might have scraped 40% but it's going to be close. I'm absoloutely knackered now but I have to cram as much revision in as I can tonight for another exam tomorrow.

The joys. Most uni students have been there (myself perhaps more than most) but we all come through - have hope.

meh dude, meh. in terms of computing, you seem to know more than most of my friends who do CS at uni and definitely more than the folks in my electronics / computing a level classes.

if computings the route you wanna take (i dont know obviously) then dont worry too much about GCSE stuff too much, especially languages as mosfet said, they effect your life very little.

again, good luck to all, stay optimistic.

Exam today was okay... bit of a mixed-bag really. Nothing I wanted to come up did so I had to write two back-up essays. Bugger.

Next exam on Tuesday. I like this next module, should (hopefully) be fairly straight-forward.

I'm going to spend the first few hours of being 21 frantically revising for an exam I have in the morning. Thank God I have an epic night out planned for tomorrow..

Criminal Law Exam done, got all the information in, don't think I put enough cases in though. Ah well onto essay writing.

All essays submitted as of this morning! Just good old revising from now on. Luckily two of my modules for this semester were assessed mostly through the work I handed in so I only have four hours of exams this time round.

My politics exam went well, I think.

Did 4 sides! Thats the most I've ever written in any exam! Though quality over quantity, so it could all count for nothing.

Predictably, the exam was on the only topics I hadn't revised :fp: .

1st Year! Might get away with it, got all the legislation and stuff right and I put some cases in. I'd be happy with a solid 2,1. Which I hopefully will get as I got a good 2,1 in my essay

Got a bunch of A2's after half term :( This half term will either make or break me in terms of revision, as I'm more prepared for some exams than others. Solution; flood room with past papers and go through them like no tomorrow!

Hoping to get either AAB or ABB, otherwise I'd have to stay another year at college!

You'll probably drop a couple of marks if you didn't put too many cases in there, but remember that it's positive marking, and they won't be marking you ridiculously harshly yet. :)

im in the same boat, this half term will be make or break and im at the point where learning doesnt matter, its just knowing the answers that the examiners want to hear. good luck with it mayne, and just remember whenever you feel gooseberry fool, that this is the last 2 years worth of wank in a week or 2, so just ahve no life for a few weeks and then go mental.

+ dont do another year if you get below ABB, it really doesnt matter that much, if you have applied to uni already and you get al ittle below the requirements chances are they will allow you in anyway.

GOOD LUCK MAYNES

I'm taking my A2s too. I need to get AAB to get into my first choice uni. I'm in a good position at the moment having got good A grades in two of my subjects for AS and have been marked As for my courseworks. I'm not taking any chances though, I might as well go all out. Good luck everyone.

Haha thanks, to you as well :) I've applied to Bath (who want AAB) and Cardiff (ABB), and I'll be gutted if I don't get either of them. In any case, good luck to everyone here taking exams!

What unis are you applying to KazemI/Herr Dark Wolf?

i have applied to Kent (ABB) and sussex (ABB - BBB), been looking at hong kong university which would let me in but at £8500 a year, dont know how realistic that is. i am just finding it so hard to have the obedience to sit down and revise. ahh, just gotta hope i get into one of my work moods soon.
