Hi sbhoa! Yes I'm still here! *waves*

The cow isn't ready for grade 1 yet I'm afraid! I learnt 3 new notes this week and I can play Land of Hope and Glory! ! Wooooo

No, I don't think I'll bother with the aural tests for grade 1. There wouldn't be much point - apart from anything else I've done them so many times with so many different students, I know all of them from memory. My sax teacher and I were joking that I might get about 4 for aural tests though...

How's your grade 1 challenge going?

Oh, and just so there's no pressure.... my piano teacher said 'Well you should get a distinction shouldn't you?'

If I don't I will blame my accompanist ....... guess who that is.....biggrin.gif

Hi Patricia. It's my sax - I said it sounded like a cow when I first tried to play it (I still think it does ohmy.gif) and everyone calls it a cow now. There's more about it on the Grade 1 challenge thread, the thread started by Andante-in-C.

Yes, get there for 10.

Morning all! Kettle's on, there's hot toast today, and anyone sitting an exam is welcome to take a sprig of lucky heather from the vase on the counter.

I've been trying to get it [CISD] closed...Hopefully with our new trigger-happy mod this might happen sooner rather than later... wink.gif

No, leave it be. Its continuation means that all of the "how are you" chat is confined to one (admittedly huge) thread, which gives the others a fighting chance of staying vaguely on topic. OK, it doesn't happen all the time, but do you want all of the threads to be hijacked with chat? I don't.

Morning all - dull and misty here in south London, though my garden seems to be enjoying the mix of sun and showers these days . hot coffee please if I may...

I'll put in a vote for keeping CISD open - why would you want to close it Mr B ??

Good luck to all doing exams today!

CPPF, stop being so hard on yourself. 79% is an excellent mark - what were you expecting 95% +!

You need to take some time out from this revision and put these marks in perspective. These are A grade results already. I'm sure you have got better. But you don't want to jeopardise your potential A grade by getting over stressed. Do another paper not the same one. If you are consisently geting 75% + then you have nothing to worry about.

You need to take a break from biology NOW. Go back to it after doing some work on a completely different subject like English. Better still take some time out from revision and do something you want to do.

You are far more likely to get that A* if you stop worrying. Have you tried Bach Rescue Remedy? Eat a banana before the exam so that the tryptophan will steady your nerves. Oh and get enough sleep. If by 10pm it hasn't gone in it isn't going to do so. Have a warm bath and a milky drink, and go to bed. Then start the revision off again in the morning (after you have eaten breakfast).

Revision tips for Chocolate lovers.

Buy a small bar of chocolate and divide it into pieces.

Find your optimal concentration time (normally between 15-30 minutes).

Once you have revised for that time. get up, have a walk around and eat a piece of the chocolate.

Give yourself a good ten minutes break.

Repeat ( Revise, chocolate break revise, etc)

When all the chocolate is gone do no more revision you won't take any more in.

Will need somewhere to lock chocolate away during sessions so I don't "just have one more piece"

Gulp - a week today is my first proper exam....I got 35/40 in a test I did on Tuesday, but if I get a theory question I'm stuffed. Don't even get me started on Tony Harrison poetry!

Alright thanks, will be pleased when the exams have started, the climax is awful. Actually saying that I need as much time as I can get!

Talking of exams, my modular Science exams went OK. I found Module 5 (Energy & Electricity) the easiest.

Also, I found out from my head of year that I'm on the shortlist to be Head Boy biggrin.gif. I had a feeling I would be because quite a lot of people voted for me and I'm very popular in my year group laugh.gif! We'll just have to wait and see what happens.
