    that feeling when you get those few MP questions wrong which you knew the answer to

    Was just thinking about my half yearly legal studies exam and have just picked up 3 errors I made in multiple choice which I should not have made, had I looked over it properly. 3 questions which may have very well prevented me from getting 100%..these feels, it's too much to handle, it's...

    Do you study hard during your exam block for half-yearlies?

    Since most of my subjects are content based, I've usually got everything in my head by the time exams come around..So I don't really do as much coming into the exam, besides just revisiting in my brain each topic and being able to explain things, and regurgitate other info. I've done nearly...

    Memorising/Copying Other Peoples Essays

    I'm not gonna lie..I have pulled band 6's in EngAdv/Ext without having read the prescribed text on multiple occasions. Collating ideas, evidence, techniques etc from other responses & sources, writing up a piece & then memorising it and then moulding it to fit the question if necessary.
