Here's a question - I haven't been doing much study but i have been doing the h/w and assessments we have been given (usually hardly any.) Although just a week out from half yearly's I don't feel as if I need to study (and as a result have done hardly any)... I guess it just comes from having half-yearly's at the beginning of the year.

Back to question: how much does stress drive you to study?

for me it includes going, "ok, another 5 minutes free time then study" in never ending cycles

Stress drives me away from study. I get so stressed that I can't do it. I suppose that it's distress then...

hmmm.

I'm just going to throw it out there and say that you probably should study. ;)

It's hard to get motivated for study sometimes... especially on the weekends when I could be relaxing and watching movies... out on the town. :) I don't mind doing work on the Sunday after midday though.

how many words should a standard english essay be lol?
1000?

Our teacher said advance should write about 1200 for hsc and 1000 for prelim.. so im guessing standard HSC should be about 900-1000?

ALSO i feel like im gonna end up failing! someone help me!!! especially with english... i'm stuck on an essay :( been trying to finish it for 2 days now, it's due tomorrow... and i've only done about 250 words out of 1000!! pleas any help? pm or msn, email anything :(

it's for modeule b - poetry of wilfred owen.
i was thinking that, instead of the usual reference to two poems, i might do 3 and my essay will be around 1000, i just dunno if i can do that in 40 minutes.
