Work during the holidays?

Scroll to see replies

Anyone doing AS exams in January should work hard for them now and just get them out of the way because if you do bad in them they'll come back to haunt you next year like they're doing to me. :frown:

2 weeks in sometimes plenty of time for some people. I'm sure you will study everything over the 2 weeks.

I go back on the 6th and start study leave on the 11th; s/l lasts a week I think.

That is so lucky.

I go back on the 10th and have an exam the same day. We only get the day before an exam off as study leave in January.

I don't think study leave for january exams is not that good. I rather have it for June exams instead. By the way, the government is planing to scrap study leave.

They scrap it because they think students won't use their time wisely.

How much are you people studying over the holidays? I'm in my AS year and I don't have any January exams, which is definitely a good thing because I can't find the motivation to do any studying. I know I don't really need to do anything apart from set homework, but I still feel really guilty for not doing any :frown:

Am I just weird or does anyone agree?

You haven't got any exams so enjoy the break hunny.I'm not doing any A-level resits in January,but others in my school are so we'll be off timetable.That's when I'm planning to do my work lol.

Yeah, that's what I was going to say. Kelly, you should just relax/chill etc, because in many holidays to come you will have lots of work to do! :wink:

Make the most of the time off.

I am trying to make myself do a little bit more revision each day. I have a resit from the summer which isn't too much of a problem and a politics module. I am trying to work my way through my folder but it is so much hard work but I really want to do well so my room is covered in post-it notes..they seem to be working. I decided to get lots done because we havn't finished the course yet so if i get what we have been taught sorted it will be a bit easier in a few weeks..

Got english coursework to start but that isn't a big priority at the moment
