anyone rekon I should pull an all nighter to about 3-4 am? I have 2 exams tomorrow :(
Don't pull an all-nighter ever. You may feel full of adrenaline in the morning, but you'll be prone to make more silly mistakes and stuff bcoz of a lack of concentration. THE IDEAL thing is to relax on the night b4 the exam - you should have prepared earlier. It's always ideal to get a good 7 or 8 hrs of sleep before an exam - your body simply isn't used to only getting 3/4 hrs of sleep (or is it?)

lol well not 3-4 hours but 4-5 hours yes :) I have done preperation, but I feel underprepared for business studies as I've only covered about 70-80% of the content until now. The amount of theory is unbelievable! good thing i've already decided to drop it :D (for next year)

i would'nt use the "Term" Nailing, but good results doing an all nighter is really bad for your health cause if your mind isn't set on what your focusing on you will have realized i don't remember shit lol,

its tru though doing something out of the ordinary is weird but if you reckon it will help go for it make sure you Learn Key facts and "Actually" remember the stuff

Business Studies is probably your easiest subject lol.
Most of the theory is common sense and yeah - it's all syllabus based.

I work about 2 hours every night and before an exam that goes up to about 4.

i do my hmwk, but study is 4 hrs a day, thats my policy, sometimes (most times) i do more, cause i really don't get a lot of homework. Holidays i follow my school timetable so hours a day with two breaks.
