+ obsolete 'es' ending on my plural concrete noun :u:

not sure if 'thine' shouldn't have been 'thy', i know they've been interchangeable at some point in history... 'thine' looked better with a plural though.

you doing AQA lang on friday? :tongue:

Yay! Your post made me feel better!
*hug*

No Edexcel.
All my exams are edexcel and 6 of my 8 exams are within 4 days of each other.

I keep telling myself: "Only 5 more days, only 5 more days"
But it feels like being in hell right now D:


:biggrin: yay
They are on at the same time probably to prevent sitting two chem5s..oh mine were like that in january but in the summer they were too spaced out. I know it's just counting down and wishing time will go faster. Good luck in all your exams!!
(Btw what course and college is your offer for? I'm engineering in Fitz but 2012..so hopefully see you in a year and a bit :P )

Ah yes, but I thought that one spoke for itself :tongue:.

I have no idea, I haven't gone into that much depth with my 'revision' i.e looking over the CGP revision guide :biggrin:.

I am indeed, are you? I can just about stand language change but acquisition makes me want to spray my eyes with cheap, pine-scented air freshener. I haven't done a whole lot of revision but then again there's not a whole lot to do I guess.

I have 4 exams in the next four days -
FP2, Music,
Chemistry Unit 5 and FP3.

Why was I an idiot who did 5 a levels.
WHY?

I WANT TO CRY :frown: - I dont even have time to last minute crash revise!
Someone please make me feel better.


I ask myself the same question often!

just think about when they're all over. a few days of despair and hard work, then months of freedom. it'll be worth it! :smile:
Anyone else finding themselves already wanting to find info about freshers week? :tongue:

I think we tend to tell people when they arrive, although you might get a freshers booklet beforehand which might suggest some fancy dress to bring :P

Edit: Why does this deserve a neg?!

group chat/docs should be all you need to clear up last-minute crises of confidence re:eng lang. the admins are pretty rapid at adding you :smile:

i'm... i'm very nervous. i need an A* in it. i know i know the content pretty well and the grade's certainly not beyond my reach, but there's a lot of pressure on :redface:
