NO TOPIC

You —

Well This is the new No Topic Topic. 😛

For those who do not know, this place is to talk about nothing. Nada. Zilch. And everything else which according to you does not deserve it's own topic.

The other one was getting a bit long, and was just full of bickering now.

So we have a new start.

The bickering in the Old no topic should not be carried over to here.

EDIT - go to NO TOPIC the Third.

I would assume it to be 8pm as it did for atleast a few days this week. Not certain though.

I suppose it will. Without the preservatives it can't stay fresh for long.

But if you add concentrated orange juice to milk...

BeastYou know Coca Cola? If you put a Mentos sweet into a bottle of coke the coke shoots out.

This is quite cool http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=hKoB0MHVBvM&NR=1

Apparently this contributed to a 20% increase in the sales of Mentos.

remove yourself from any temptations ie tv, play station, phone, music the kitchen.

Revise for 40/45 min then give yourself a break for about 15 min. (your brain tends to switch off after 40/45 min so its pointless to continue revisin as nothing will go in).

the library is gonna be closed with it being xmas so just lock yourself in your room or an empty room where it is peaceful.

Revise the stuff that you find harder first and work your way to the easiest but make sure you dont spend too long on one subject coz otherwise your not gonna leave yourself enough time for your other subjects.

make a timetable and stick to it! (trust me it helps)

if you do all the above you will pass with flying colours.

Good Luck

University is not about knowing the subject, but knowing how to pass exams.

Get yourself a set of questions. Get answers or them. That is the best way to revise.

Or if you wanna play clever, in uni, most questions rarely change from year to year, so get the last year or two's papers, see which questions match (probably all of them) and learn enough answers to get you the mark you want.

Example - in a subject the exam always asks you to choose three questions out of 5. The same five questions more or less repeat themselves, or atleast 4 will, unless it is a new course.

Learn the answers to atleast two questions properly. The skim the rest, so that you can pick up the easy points where needed.

You should know what you are gonna get for the exam (within a small margin of error) before you even leave the exam room.

So you are probably asking if Admin/You or whatever he calls himself these days is such a know-it-all how come he messed up?

Simply put I followed the following procedure:
1. Get exam papers.
2. predict questions.
3. Why get the answers? X men 2 is out! Oh and there is the Iraq war. May aswell go to a few demonstrations too!
4. Do I really have to turn up to the exam?
5. I seriously should have got a better mark. The course work was worth moer thanI got! (checks bag to see coursework is still inside the bag instead of handed in.)

Past exam papers are a good way to see whether you have understood what you have revised and whether you can apply it to the question. They are also good to check whether you’re likely to complete the question in the given time (most students spend too long on the first question and don’t leave themselves enough time for the second hence why they get a crap marks).

Sometimes the examiners are spoilt for choice (they have a several topics they can choose to test the student but can only ask 4/5 questions) when writing the questions, not all the topics will appear on the exam paper. Sometimes a question can cover up to 4/5 topics!.

Sometimes examiners won’t ask a question on a certain topic for several years and then one year they will put a question on it. Sometimes the question is really simple and straightforward but the examiner has written it such a way that it confuses the student. Therefore most students are not able to recognise which topic the question is testing them on.

Me too. His previous songs he sings normal but in this song the way he pronounces some of the words ( ie glass) he says it with a really posh accent and it just sounds naff.

probably. The alternative to not working is sitting at home and watching the crappy xmas films. But saying that I always look forward to Oliver Twist every year but this year they put on an adaptation which just wasn’t the same.
