Bio and maths on thursday and only have one day to cram (I haven't studied for both of them yet). Oh joy.

One was on Government Intervention e.g. Why does the Government intervene in the economy? And the other was on Interest Rates, The Cash Rate, Inflation etc.

5 down, 2 to go. I'll ace Chemistry (aiming for 95-100%) and for Extension Maths.. :(.

Just finished English an hour ago. I failed completely. If I get 40%, that's pretty good.

Legal Studies in 40 minutes. I hope I'll kill this one like I did in the half-yearlies.

Wow. Sounds like a difficult exam.


This morning was Business Studies. The extended response was a choice between "key considerations in setting up a business", or "critical.... something something I can't remember...". Needless to say, I chose the first option.

Tomorrow = Economics. :read:

Wasn't so much hard as I really, really needed more than 2 hours.

Oh, Legal was OK. I just don't like having to write two pages about glass ceilings. Bring on Crime.
