Post I seriously think im cursed everytime i do CA
I had another horrible exam today. It was 2 hours long and i left after 35 minutes cause i couldnt answer any more questions. If i have to come for resits which i think is prob more than likely then for the second time doing CA it will ruin my summer.

Sorry bout this but im just feeling upset again about exams i need someone to talk to

with a bit of luck, the next two exams will be on something you're confident about.

Honestly, just try and forget about the first two, concentrate on the others.

OK, so worse comes to worse, you have to resit and that means you come back early, but you're still going to be able to do CA. It will only ruin your summer if you let it!

eurgh chemistry, i always found that really difficult at school, so cant imagine how hard it is at uni!

im sure you will do well in the next two. is it all for the same module? if it is, it will probably bring your average right up

my pass mark is 40%, is yours the same? if so, you would only need another 10% from each of the chemistry exams?! you'll get that easy!
