(A LEVELS) How much are you planning to study in the Christmas holidays?

I'm planning on doing some intensive studying from Monday onwards - including studying through Christmas day (well I'm Muslim so I don't celebrate it anyway.)
But anyways, what are you guys planning to do and how are you planning to do it? (Eg putting your social life on hold?)

(Btw, this only refers to those of you who have A level exams in January).

I don't have any exams, so I have a feeling my presence won't be entirely welcome in this thread... I plan to have a fab time and eat a lot and do absolutely no work...I'm going to do an essay tonight and hopefully two tomorrow so I'm free. Yay :biggrin:

But good luck people who are going to study.

Back on topic, I'll do some of each a day (maybe 4 hours max altogether). I won't go overboard as my exams aren't till the end of January :sexface:

When I did my A Levels, from Dec 23rd to Jan 2nd was strictly revision free! Gotta have fun sometimes, hey!

Too much! I'll probably allow myself a break for Christmas and Boxing day though..

I suppose it's bad that I somehow enjoy revision :s-smilie:

Starting tommorrow, then take the weekend off to catch up on Black Ops, Fifa and all the games I've left rotting due to the work overload. Then continue throughout the holidays, hardcore, not on Christmas and New Years day though, obviously.
