Credit was a bitch.

But hopefully the whole country found it hard, and they bring the pass mark down.

Think I've got a 1

Fuck off.

Did you get Q10 of the calculator? the pay one.

I have a 3 hour physics exam on Wednesday have about 100 hours worth of lecture material to revise, should have started revising weeks ago.

What subject?

A levels are killing me. Can't pick up a book and revise for 10 minutes.

Everyone on Facebook's moaning about the Credit Maths, so hopefully they bring the pass grade down.

Personally, I think the pass mark should be raised.

Everyone gets 1s and 2s in standard grades, don't worry dawg.

Thought I'd bump this up.

You want it to be harder for yourself to get good grades?

English revision this weekend

Got my Critical Thinking mock result back and I got a D. It's not the best mark, but I was fairly happy with it, seeing as I did no revision and got a U in the January test, which i'm re-sittng next Friday. With a bit of revision i'm fairly confident of getting at least a C, hopefully a B.

Also did a Geography mock last week too. I found it easy, but found it difficult to write the amount needed in the time given, so I need to get practicing a load of exam questions to be able to answer them quicker. Reckon i'll get a C/D as I was rushing for the last 2 questions and only had 10 minutes to answer both, and they were 10 marks and 15 marks questions.

What is critical thinking anyway?

It's a lesson which requires you to think critically.

+ Thank God we do General Studies instead of Critical Thinking. Sounds much harder than GS.

English

Finished for the Summer had Sport Psychology exam on Wednesday...2 of the 5 short answers were a bit crap but the rest of them were pretty decent (hopefully) along with the essay question

Study Leave

Our college has given us study leave the week after May half term, which is kind of pointless as most the exams are the week before half term


So i'm gonna have like 2 weeks off in a row. Only got 2 exams after half term on the monday afternoon and tuesday afternoon. It'll be like Easter Holidays again

Yes. Picked the wrong question to do at the start, but apart from that, did ok.

English Lit this morning, did alot better than I would have done if I didn't do all all nighter revising. Still fucked up on the 2nd question though.
