It's summer again! (well no 1 told the weather that) everyone is thinking sunshine, ice cream, sunbathing and exotic holidays right? WRONG! We still have to struggle through and entire week of exams in a hot and stuffy classroom!
To survive exams -
get together with a mate in the hols to go over everything you dont know (in my case everything!)
give yourself breaks during revising sessions so it's not all one big chore (even thought it is anyway)
plan something good @ the end so you have the idea of something fun to look forward to all the way through. me + some m8s have planned a group outing 2 the seaside the weekend after exams. it's also something to plan during unbearable long revision sessions
if you have any other tips for exam sufferers like everyone in my prison, i meen fine institute *cough cough, then please feel free to post them.

Glad to see you've blogged again. The seaside sounds fine, it is my favorite place to be. During my education, (formal, in school, that is; not the life education that is ongoing.) I quickly discovered that 90% of what one is made to learn is immaterial, except to remember long enough to pass tests. For this reason I was a last minute crammer and studied and memorized before the test and retained most of it only long enough to take the test. If, in fact, any of it turned out to be necessary later I could always refresh at that time. Most of it didn't.
