yep. It's not the 42 that's so bad, but the 7,7,6 at hl.

also, I secretly want 45 so much (IhatemyselfIhatemyself)


same, i'd like to have 45 as well, :-D, btw, where are you going for uni???
I feel anxious and a bit nervous about some exams but to be honest, the knowledge that by the 18th of May after my Biology Paper 3 exam, I will have finished the IB is an even greater feeling. Can't wait! :smile:

Best of luck to all of you and keep reminding yourself that you have less than 3 weeks left! :biggrin:

Keep this in mind guys! I may just be being paranoid, but I'd hate for anyone to ruin all their hard work by doing this and getting caught... We all know how silly the IB can be :P


Yeh, my coordinator told us about it at mock exams we had in January.
- I used it as an excuse not to talk to my parents about how the exams were, just makes me stressed. :tongue:
And apparently it's best not to talk about the exam you just did with friends
(they made that statement about contacting other people for people in different timezones/different times for starting) but talking about it makes you realise you may not have had the correct approach and make you feel worse & stressed... apparently...

Wow, I think I'm one of the earliest in my year... 9th?!! wth?! ahhh
Yay good luck to us early finishers (as it means everything is crammed into short time, no extra study time :eek: ) and to everyone (who stress more as its over a longer time) :eek:
good luck :biggrin:

Aw thank you, I'll be heartbroken if I don't :frown: But I feel like I don't deserve it because I've been procrastinating so much and haven't done nearly as much work as I should've done :frown:

Oooh higher latin! high five! :biggrin: it still doesn't feel like it's the real thing to me, lol, it still just feels like we're doing mocks and in a couple of weeks time i'm going to be back at school getting my results, kicking myself and telling myself i'll work harder for the real thing...

high five :smile: how do you feel about it? the lit paper seems so unpredictable and weird :frown::frown: just dont know what questions or what answers they want!! ahh dont worry even if you think you havent done enough so much would have gone in over the two years and its probably best because you wont be worked up!

i applied to churchill because i heard they have the best dorms...
but since you need 776 in hl anyway, it doesn't make a huge difference. I don't suppose anyone will lose marks in SLs
