Exams!

Not exactly moneysaving, but it is studenty (and I couldn't find another thread anywhere!)!

Anyone else studying for January exams and feel like poking their eyes out!? :(

    Nope, my uni changed how they run their courses. So instead of the exams being in January like yours, they are now at the end of the first semester in December on the last week generally of that module. I find that better as over Christmas its hard to revise, furthermore, the actual lectures and information is more in your head at that time. Also they changed the fact you get your exam one week before the exam on seen exams.

    So luckily for me, no exams to prepare for this month. Which I am glad personally as I hated the fact I had to prepare for an exam over Christmas.

    I have 4 exams all 2 hours each; Monday, Tues, Wed, Fri.

    Tuesday one we are allowed a cheatsheet (C++ so you're not expected to know the language off by heart, just how to use it).

    Tmz's one I will struggle in places but I have revised loads so should be ok... I hope.

    Mine aren't for a while because our term dates are strange. One on the 23rd and one on the 2nd of next month. Plenty of time to revise (stress), but I also have an essay to do for the 20th of Jan! Argh!

    I only have 1 exam in January luckly as most of my modules are double modules. Although that can be a disadvantage as then you have twice as much to revise for in the summer.

    Not too worried about the Jan exam have done some revision and plan to do more. The fact I got near enough 100% on the module coursework takes some of the stress off.
