    Default Exams

    I had my last day of school yesterday and my exams are starting next tuesday (1st one is English Literature)
    I was just wondering if there's anyone in the same position as me and how they're dealing with revision.
    Are you confident or pessimistic?

    I have my exams next month. Usually when I go into a science or math exam I feel pretty confident. However, when I have an English exam I don't have much confidence. Writing an essay and doing a sight passage within two hours isn't something I'm an expert at.

    I had my final exam two days ago. I always try to be optimistic about exams, I revise pretty much non stop the week before, but I always get that sickly feeling in my belly like I'm on a rollercoaster.
    For four days in a row I revised for at least 5 hours each day. My brain nearly exploded, but it's over now. Good luck to whoever has any exams coming up

    Been there, done that...

    Call me masochistic, but I actually enjoyed doing my English exams, especially for GCSE and my A Levels (second attempt), as well as my Media Studies A Level. Basically, it was because I knew the material (we were allowed two A4 sides of notes into one of the Media Studies level, and if you wrote small, those notes could be pretty comprehensive! ) I have a flair for English, so most of the papers were easy for me.

    So the advice I can give is know your material, and get lots of sleep the night before. And above all, good luck! :P

    I have my first exam on Tuesday as well, which is a written exam in Danish Essay, after that I have to take an exam in English Essay and German Essay Thursday and Friday. Then I have four oral exams left: English, History, Danish and Classical Civilization/Studies.. I envy you Americans! - your exams are a lot easier than ours...

    I'm exempt from all of mine B)

    I didn't have to go to the orthodontist, so I didn't have any absences, so I can get straight C's and not take any tests.

    Well, I didn't dress out, so I may have to take my Gym exam, but who cares about gym. DDR is better than the track anyway.

    My last day of 7th grade is on Wednesday. I've taken my Math and Science exams already and I exempted Texas History. That just leaves Language Arts, which happens to be my best subject and comes easiest. (Yay for me being a son of an editor) OMG. I just remembered something. We are dissecting frogs tomorrow in science as our last experiment! Yay frog guts! Yay 7th grade!

    My exams started....almost two weeks ago. I just did my English Lit. today.

    It really was a piece of piss. I managed to get the two questions I'd already revised in some sense. Awesome-licious. I know I should revise more, but I don't.

    My last two weeks have been nothing but bloody exams.

    I actually did my English Lit GCSE today, and I'm only in Year 10. English is my favourite subject, and I was chosen to do it a year early as I'm a big English nerd, really. It was easy!

    I just had my English Lit. today.
    I was dreading it, even though I revised (what I think was) alot.
    But afterwards it seemed OK. I'm just glad it's over with . I'd rather have a science or maths exam anyday.
