Mid-year exams woes!! Help!

Hey guys,

So we have mid years coming up, but my school is behind in coursework for Chem + Psychology, so I have yet to start doing some quality revision for the subjects.. for Psych I just started to write notes on the chapters and will attempt to finish Checkpoints by the weekend, and for Chem I'm just doing Checkpoints + Lisachem questions..

On top of that pretty much all the SACs for this term are in the next 2 weeks.. I have SACs for Business Management, English, Chemistry, and Psychology all in the next two weeks and I think I'm going to absolutely go insane! so what should I do? My school is retarded btw why the hell would you do SACs in the weeks before mid-years.. -.-

You can start doing practise exams and don't bother doing it in timed conditions yet, just treat them as practise questions and do the questions which are the topics that your school has covered and leave the ones which your school hasn't covered till later. Put SACs as 2nd priority and prioritize your exam revision, doing well in mid years is VERY important if you want to secure a high study score. Once you get some practise exams done you will feel much better and confident. You guys have it much easier than us Uni students, lecturers still haven't finished units and exams are in like a week, and we don't even have any past papers to refer to, essentially we go into the exam 'blind'. So yeah, don't panic, just start doing practise exam papers and learn from the mistakes you make from those papers.

Good luck and best wishes for your midsems.
