I'm going to try and get in as much kJ as possible between the two exams and get about 9 hours + sleep tonight.

What advice i need now is how to remember the content for two 3 hour exams :cold:

Yeah, I tend to feel dead after a three hour exam, kinda screwed me around in the trials (also had Bio and Legal on the same day)...

Any advice? At least Bio's in the morning to build my confidence though, lol.

Tip: Berocca. Copious amounts of Berocca. Eat a lot for breakfast and lunch, because your stomach will grumble during both exams if you don't. Don't try to cram too much in the break between exams, because you'll feel tired in the second exam. That's all I know from experience =/

do something like chuck your bio notes in the bin. just so you get it all out of your head. then go over your legal notes, but dont stress yourself out about it. give your mind some time to relax and get over biology. there is such a huge content for both exams, so allow yourself some time to breathe.

dont think about it too much.

My tummy grumbles even without a double exam!
I'd be screwed if I had two in a row...

I have Bio and Legal tomorrow as well. I like Bio so hopefully that'll be an ok start to the day. I'm tossing up whether to listen to some music and get some lunch or juggle lunch and a legal book
