Prelims are June 9th, I believe. The Englishers have already had theirs, all done well at Pem which is great. :smile: And I'm sure not everything has been overwhelmingly bad! Though it surprises me that you've never seen anyone else's work, at the end of each term so far I've swapped essays with either the people in my college doing the same paper as me, or outside of college who I met in, say, the first supervision of term. I think it is a really good way of doing things.


It's officially June 12th. CamSIS says :smile:

Yours might have, we haven't even had our exams yet.

Really? Oh right, didn't realise everyone did theirs at different times, good luck with yours then. When are they?

Aye, but my DoS is on the board of examiners, he says they have the general examiners meeting on the 8th, the results (i.e pass/fail) are posted up on the 9th, and he says on that day, having had the meeting, he'll have the mark breakdown and feedback from examiners, and will be in touch with us on the
9th to give us our results. Might well be dif. for Tit Hall tho. :smile:

Well that's not very nice....it means they're out sooner than I thought, as I can't see my DoS being inefficient....*cries*

Char, do you want to get drunk next friday then?

One more to go!

Today's was fairly abysmal, but everyone thought so. I can't decide if it was worse than Tuesday's - on Tuesday I had 3 questions I could answer moderately badly, today I had one I could do quite well and two which I did REALLY badly. I hate essays, I much prefer calculations and short answers and things like that :frown:
I finish on the 8th... starting on the 5th. and I'm reallying ****ting myself now. Well no matter. Bring on the Slaughter! Having missed about 40% of my lectures in the entire year... I really don't have many choices when the exam comes :s:.

Terrible today. If I had just been a bit calmer, I could have gotten about 20% more points than I will probably get.
I hate essays

On the 13th, didn't Pembroke do theirs last term? I'm sort of pleased mine are in the proper exam period, it makes me feel more like it's the end of the year and I'm working up to something.

Ah, okies. No, they didn't have them last term - had them in the first week back this term, with us historians. I think they quite appreciated getting them out of the way though I take your point about working up to something. :smile:
Not quite an all-nighter; finished at 2 am. Having written 21 pages (double spaced big writng...).

Looks liek teh (verbal) kick up the backside from my supervisor worked. I've put 100% into the essay this week ( I feel like a NatSci, its wrong!) and I blimmin well hope it's paid off! High 2.1 would be nice to show I can do it...
Well done! (21 pages :eek:)

You definitely seemed to be in the library nearly as much as me - quite hardcore for a historian :p:

Anyway, I have my LAST exam today! Huzzah! (c) FTB 2006

Today is my sister's 18th birthday. I feel old. Quite an exciting year though as the other sister turns 16 and I turn 21. If I'd not taken the sabbatical we'd all have been leaving our respective schools this year too, although Mum is extremely happy that she hasn't had to endure the stress of GCSE/IB/Final exams quite all at once. If only she and Dad were turning 50 instead of 49 this year - so much significance!!! The historian in me is overwhelmed.
Right. I ahve a supo at 4 and had a really good outing this morning.

My plan now: get a blanket, a book, and my bike and go and have a picnic. I need to de-stress; I'v ebeen doing way too much work! :p:
