Well, I have exams in just over 3 weeks. You know, the important ones that one requires for entry to luniversity. Going for a course in Communication technology (ISP level networking) with a CISCO qualification thrown in for good measure at Paisley University. They want to see a B and 2 C's, which should be in Maths, Physics and Computing (no order). I should have an A in computing (and it's at a level above what the uni are asking for too) fairly easily. However, i'm going to have to put in a fair dose of work in Maths and Physics. I've also got Chemistry and English in there too - English being at a lower level than the rest, but totally unnecessary and a waste of my time (however, my rant on how much of a farce the English course is, is another story); i'm sorely tempted not to bother with the exam. As for Chemistry, well, it's a rather hard subject to begin with and to add to the predicament, my teacher has the mental capacity of a peanut, I shit you not. Having said that, I don't really need it, but it would certinally look good to have a decent grade from it. That, and there's always parental pressure to pass it.
So, theoretically, I should be studying for around 6 hours a night over and above school, which is, quite frankly, balls. I get up at 0730, leave for school at 0820, school starts at 0855, it finishes at 1535 and I get home at around 1600. I then go to bed at ~2230. You do the math. Even getting a few hours in is hard enough as it stands. >:(
7 weeks till the end of the exams. So near, yet, so far. ;_;
So, dear everyone, apologies for my lack of activity over the coming weeks. Sigh.
