lol no fucking way... im so bad at english that it aint funny... in fact my highest stress point of the year was probably the day of my mod B viva voce!

thanks guise!
Don't worry man. English comes from within.

It's just like omed, striving to increase that rank beyond 40/50. It conveys the multiplicity of barriers which omed must transcend, enabling the authentic expression of self-identity and a revalidation of self.

lol yeh man hoping for an extract from omed62's posts as my creative stimulus. i've prepared for it.

actually correction. the most stressful time was by far the time when i went to bed at 5 the night/morning before my mod A english exam because i also had a geo assignment due that day which i hadnt finished. So i somehow managed to sleep through 3 alarms set at full volume, and found my mum shaking me at 8:40 am, with 20 minutes to go till my exam. now usually it would take me a fair 40-50 mins to get to school by bus, but by some miraculous stroke of luck, there was a taxi nearby and i got on asap and made it to school at 8:59am. So farewell guys, will be going to bed soon, do not want that happening tomorrow LOL! (true story)

tl;dr i slept in and almost missed my exam

LOL nek min it actually happens.

Don't worry man. If you keep thinking about English till you SLEEP, you'll dream of it. So effectively, you're studying while resting. Who needs all nighters?

My maths tutor recommended doing 5 before the trials lol, he said that he did 10-15 (but he did 4U, I'm only doing 2U).
You got enough time, especially if you can finish it before 3 hrs, usually me and my friends took about 1 hour and half to complete 2u past trials, even though we do 3u but you should to even with 3 hrs per paper. If you do like 1 paper per day you do all 5 within a week easy, gg.

Just did Maths Advanced Trial today, it was pretty hard :/

Bloody plane geometry and harder probability!
Don't worry about it. If you found it hard, there's a good chance that everyone did as well - remember, it's all relative.

Focus on what's next, as your name says "focus is key". :haha:

Yeah a lot of people were complaining about the difficulty too so I'm not alone. And yeah, I'll need my focus for the English paper tomorrow :O

pls no one post their Trial exam questions here, especially if you're doing a pre-set trial (Catholic, Independent). Dunno if that's been said already. (Or do they do their trials at the same time? idk...)

CSSA everyone does it at the same time. I also heard a teacher say that it's board directed procedure not to allow ANYONE to do the exam unless on the specified CSSA day. So if you're away, they give you another revised exam, not the original CSSA!

I heard CSSA are pretty anal about their exams...
