Holidays

Will you be studying in the holidays, or just having your last total break to freshen up for the last month or so? Obviously most schools have practice exams, so most people would only have about a week of genuine holidays. Is it wise to use this week to just do nothing and rest yourself, do a little bit of light work, or use it for solid exam study??

I definetly need a small break to get refreashed and get the motivation levels back up.....Do you think this is a real disadvatage leading up to exams?

My motivation level has been sitting on 0 because I'm both confused and disinterested in Unit 4. I plan on making up wasted time by studying hardcore during the holidays especially after getting an appalling result for one of my bio sacs today. asdhkfjasdf I am still raging over how crap I got.

But then again I only need to study vigorously for one subject so thank god for that.
