i've had german oral! but 1st real exam on monday! argh! revising's not fun! good luck to others! carol-the only way i find of getting stuff to stay in my brain is to just keep doing practise questions (just reading my notes doesn't help 1 bit!). have u had any yet?

i've had french & german orals, and french listening...german listening tomorrow!
i can't wait until it's all over...long holidays
i revise by making notes n doing questions, it's sooo boring!!! anyone know how to do better on English Lit?? I find it really difficult, the exam where you have to wirte about a novel you've studied, and about the old poems that don't make sense...
Anyway, good luck everybody, hope you get the results you want!

I've had german orals as well but first proper exams are on Mon, PE and ICT. PE's ok but ICt is so boring, pointless and the markers are so picky! I hate the subject. i have loadsa revsion to do and what am i doing this weekend? Going on a squad weekend and Holme Fell I have a feeling it is not gonna get done:(
Rachel - With English Lit I find that if you stuff ur essay full of appropiate quotes, like after every point you generally do ok. Also helps if u try not to use too much colloquial english i.e don't write how you speak.

Ive done a physics and a general studies exam (AS) yesterday and they were alright. I find saying things out loud when im revising helps it to stay in and I also randomly walk round my room when revising. I just cant sit down on my bed and read a book cos i just fall to sleep/daydream!

when avoiding revision anything is interesting!
had pure 2 and gen.st. yesterday.. oh what a joke! question on a girl playing with matches and all i could think was 'oooh you're gona start a fire you stupid girl!'.... nevermind the fact that they wanted me to invent some nice formula to allow her to play more with matches! safety dave would not be impressed.
