Hi all, tonight is the night before my contracts exam and I am rather nervous. I have had a few breakouts due to nerves, so I have had more vitamins and tried to calm down a bit.
I hope all goes well and whatever will happen will happen. I am taking the train to university tomorrow so that will allow me 2 hours to read my notes, so a good time to go over things.
Wish me luck and I will let you know how it went tomorrow night if I am not too exhuasted.
Have you found yourself with heaps to do and no interest in any of it? Well I have, although I do have an interest in doing it, I think I just have too much to do currently and that is making it all not get done. It does not help that I feel pressured about studying for my university exam but then I feel that I need to do other things, like housework, food shopping, and other things that get in the way of a student doing study.
Maybe I should put all the laundry away? Maybe I should just sit down and do the study that is needed to pass this exam and course. Oh the joys of not being able to concentrate currently. Would more coffee help? I still think cloning me would help but I know that is out of the question, ethically and also due to not having the technology available. I also think it would be freaky having more of me about.
It could be due to the fact that the contract law is rather dry and hard to digest at times so once you read a bit it is hard to stay enthused. Maybe I can develop ways to remember it all and to stay enthralled about it until the exam? Any ideas appreciated.
One other complication is staying focused and energetic about doing things late into the night when I am exhausted from kids and keeping things running in this house. I know I just need to knuckle down and it is probably just due to the fact that I am tyring to put it all off, but I don’t want to do badly and would like to give it a good go.
I think the hardest part is trying to do more in your day when the days are not your own anymore. I used to be so good with this, but now with kids I find that I cannot just sit down and study or sew, or do anything when I am at my best (namely the mornings), I have to wait to the twilight hours. Have you found this? My brain is thinking of all the things that need to be done and I am finding it hard to just concentrate on one thing, would this be a mummy thing or just the fact that I have a lot on my plate currently? I think it is just due to being busy.
The next 2 weeks are going to be taken up with study and yet more study. I have my exam on the 15th of November and would like to do as much as possible to get a good grade. So no matter what the situation I am going to do that. I promise myself. How do you make sure that you stick to your plans? Do you write notes to yourself? Make plans and give yourself rewards for sticking to them? Send in your comments.
I have sat my university exam and was not pleased. It was very difficult and more than I expected it to be. I had notes available and did not have some that I should have had. To top it off, I was ill, and faced mathematical questions that I was led to believe that I would just have to name the formula or way to figure it out but not actually figure it out – I was very wrong.
I had to complete questions that I thought I could do in the time for the exam and hope for the best. Passing this subject needs to happen as I would like to graduate next year, I don’t want to have to do this subject again. I am very keen to finish this degree.
Although this was stressful and I am very worried about the outcome, at least now I don’t have to do any more university work, until next semester.
Not keen on next semester and yes there is another exam to do. Next semester is Contracts Management. I know I am doing this to myself, it sounds terrible, however everything is all listed in a contract and if you know where to look you can uncover everything. So I thought it would be a good skill to have.
I have alerted my teacher to my possible poor performance and the issue of being ill while undertaking it and also before during study. So we will see. I just want to pass.
