LOL you're kidding right? I need an 85 at least and im doing no study whatsoever- fortunately my internals are good - top 5 for everything except english where im in the top 20 :) + me schools in the top 200. Are your internals good as well cause by the looks of things - you'll be getting 90+

they are ok...my estimate was about 80...but if i do bad in one subject it will screw me up...especially if i do shit in german...im in the top 25 for english, top quarter for maths, top half for bio and pe, but second last for german...i would be in the top 10 for everything, and 3rd in german if i actually did work in the past year...but i did jackshit, so im trying to make up for it all now

I think thats what has me in such a cruisy mood, I know I've done most of the work through the year, and whenever I read something I'm like, oh yeah, I remember that. Now all I'm hoping for is not to get some random, out of nowhere question, and having enough time to write my essays for english... Oh. and maths. Mainly because its impossible. :)

I managed to get 3-4 hours done so far, hoping to get in another hour before dinner. Not a bad effort, i can already see an improvement in my understanding of important concepts.

EDIT:

minimum of 8 hours a day...trying to do atleast 2 hours a day of each subject, so thats 10 hours, and then trying to focus on a couple more on areas im struggling in...so im trying to do 12-15 all up...but its not working...but 8-10 is better than none at all!
Now thats determination, good effort.

It really depends on what type of study you do.
2 hours of productive study may be equivalent to 4 hours of unproductive study.

There are some people however that don't study much at all and still get crazy marks ><

Today I think I did about, all up, 20mins worth of productive study.
Looked at my notes over and over, but nothing seemed to fit.
Horrendous stuff.

My UAI estimate is actually 90 which is more than enough to get me into my course, but of course, we all want to aim for something higher than our course requirements I suppose (unless you're one of those 99+ course students.)

Going to try much harder tomorrow.

Hey gab, did ya try restarting your computer when that happens? Happens to me sometimes as well. Especially if MSN was on before the other websites stopped working. I just restart the computer and everything works fine again. I have no idea why it works with BoS only :confused: When i was away from bos and myspace was my most visited website it did it with myspace instead..
Thanks leg, shall definitely try that tip out next time it happens :)

That's kinda annoying for people who actually dedicate many hours and put in 58789537x effort.
Not directing this to anyone in particular, but seriously, it makes others feel bad
