I've had 5 exams so far: French Speaking, Religious Studies, Maths (Non-calculator), English Literature, and Science (Unit 1).
Now that my second exam is not until June 2nd (although I have 7 exams that week -  ), I have plenty of time to revise more.

I have two or three exams next week. One of them may or may not be required, depending on how well I did in a Spanish final project today; I'm kinda thinking that I will need to take the exam, but I can't be positive; she's really against making an exam.
I took the history exam today. It wasn't a problem, except for listing the Marine ranks; I couldn't remember them all.
Generally speaking, I'm fine with exams. However, last year, I got rather stressed at that time, for no particular reason; I did fine. I'm not so sure about this year; I'm not thrilled with the math, and science is heavily integrated with the math. I haven't been doing great on their tests, mainly because I haven't really studied; I'll study this time though. They took out the writing part to "make it easier"; that just makes it harder for me.

The exams are done since over a week.
But the nightmares continue to haunt my sleep.
I'm not even kidding.

Bleh, I have a test and a summative on Monday (wah! I'm going to be so freaking stressed)
Anybody have any advice to keep a cool head?

| i love exams. especially when they hand out new pencils and booklets with your name on them. and bubbling in the bubbles so completely that you almost feel sure that nothing awkward will happen. haha, then the results come out and you forget how much fun it was to take the test. that may be just myself though... |

One exam I am quite worried about is GCSE History - there's a lot of facts to learn, and the exams don't have straight-answer questions.
You often get questions like, "Greek medical ideas were far more advanced than Egyptian medical ideas. Do you agree? Give reasons for your opinion." This is annoying because I think, "Well, I know that the Greek medical ideas were more advanced, but I just can't find solid evidence." I sometimes get worried that my answer will always be too general.
I know that there aren't any examiners here, but do you think that the larger emphasis on maths, science and philosophy (e.g. Pythagoras, Alcmaeon) led the medical ideas to be more advanced (as philosophy was a basis of Hippocrates and Aristotle's theories)? I just want to make sure that that point was not too general.

Bah, it's the E****! GET THEM AWAY FROM ME!
It went bad so far... I know a lot of wonderful expressions for failing an exam, but they are all in German, that means I can't even use my normal sarcasm about it.

My History exam was bloody hard! I'm hoping for at least a C in that particular exam, but I can make up for it by doing really well in the second paper (which is a lot easier, apparently).
