Yeah, same as me. Society and Modern.. I have had like 12 days off before these tow exams though but it still feels like I haven't covered everything, Im fine with Society - came first in the trial, but for Modern, Im worried about Indochina.. eek.
Good luck!! :)

im doing russia
well something to do with russia
has anyone ever thought about just doing one of the other topics just for a bit of fun in the exam because you'll probably get the same mark you would doing the topic you've "learnt"
i was so incredibly tempted during english and biology

hahahahaa - ONE DAY LEFT!

Oh NO. Too much information - it's like overload. Whoever designed the modern history course really should try writing 6 essays and answering a bunch of comprehension question drivel in 3 hours. So not fair. Ah well. One more day, then I'm fiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnniiiiiiiiiiiiissssssssshhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeddddddd!!!


PS: Good luck to all te moderners - I know we're gonna need it :D

Hurray for three hours of flat out writing...if the trial is anything to go by, by the time I reach the Cold War question my brain just isnt functioning - and is making me say stupid things like "NATO ensured that in the instance of a US attack against Us allies, the USSR would become involved" ... -_- I need a half time shot of coffee for this exam
