    Ok! Not to worry! U may not get 450 (no offence) but u cud still aim for 400! Just keep doing papers, then read over ur answers and highlight any parts u cud use in the actual exam! Unfort, at this stage its all about learning it all off and praying what we learn comes up but papers are defo the best way to go!

    look you have to get ruthless. if takes getting your mother or father to lock you in the room for a couple of hours then do so. i know its hard to get motivated. think of it like this if you don't put in that extra hour you might not be going to university. hopefully you have done your homework and stuff through the last two years you need to go through that work. its only a week and a day to the exams you can study like mad

    it seems to me that your not studying properly. studying for hours on end won't work for everyone. there are a different ways of learning. there is seeing the thing or hearing the thing. i like to hear it. when i start learning stuff off i start saying it out pretty loud.(i live on the street and my room is at the front of the house. i open the window to let air in. i get many strange looks i can tell when i bellowing about the recession in french). at the end of it all i remember it though. you might prefer a spider diagram and little pictures to explain the topic. you need to figure out you study tricks and quick. use different techniques till you find the one that suits you

    explain it to the town like me or the dog (he'll be delighted with the attention). just talk away to yourself.(people will be coming with straight jackets to take me away) don't mind what anyone says to ya you'll be the one laughing when your getting the points. when your finish explaining it to the wall i'd say you should go over every question that has come up on the papers. quesiton may repeat themselves but repition will help you remember it better. i certainly wouldn't be putting it on the back burner. i'd look over them regularly. maybe not the same commitment as irish or maths just say
