Just to let you guys know, I'm graduating within 3 days. So I'll be studying all day long, and won't check the forum for a while.

The graduation exams take place like this:

Hungarian language and literature (script) - May 5
Mathematic (script) - May 6
History (script) - May 7
English language (script) - May 8
Biology (script) - May 16

Verbal exams: Juni 23-25

As you see, after May 8, I can relax a bit. But until then, please aim any PM-s about WotE to Kyross.

Wish me luck !

Don't work yourself to death, short term memory isn't usually as effective as long-term and doing nothing but work right up to the exam is just as bad.

Good luck though, not to say you need it.

Well, here I am :p

Except for biology, the scripted exams are now over. The maths exam was kinda' hard, so I don't expect too high score there (I'll probably pass trough it, but with not high percentage). The literature was a bit hard, too, but I'm not a Loremaster for nothing (so it went much better) :B and the history and english exams* were child's play for me. I guess the biology won't be more different in difficulty, but there are a few things about biochemics I'll have to re-read again (I never loved chemics... and you ?).

*actually, the english went so well that I solved a 70 minutes long exercise within 35 minutes. The teacher there even searched for some sort of already-solved exam in my bench, believing I've cheated or something. To make things funnier, this was actually a high-level exam.

Sorry for bringing back this topic, I'll just let you know that the exams are now finished :p

Graduation results:
Maths (mid-level): 47% (it was hard, but the "correct logic" earned some extra points... bah, I never liked this subject anyway.)
Literature (mid-level): 65% (stupid unknown writers and their unknown writings ! Seriously...)
Biology (mid-level): 62% (the written exam was bad, but the verbal exam improved the result a bit.)
History (mid-level): 80% (considering the conditions, not a bad one.)
English (high-level): 89% (best in the entire group...)

Year-ending results*:
Hungarian language: 5
Hungarian literature: 5
Maths: 4
Physic: 4
Biology: 4
History: 4
Philosophy: 5
English language: 5
German language: 4
Gymnastics: 4

*In Hungary, we use the "1-5" system; "1" is "catastrophic", "2" is "just enough", "3" is "average", "4" is "good", "5" is "excellent".

Overall, I'm in the stable middle. It could have been better, but also a lot worse, so I'm statisfied with the results. The only thing that bugs me is the history graduation result - I expected it to be slightly better (around 83-88%), but oh well...

Lets all give MorrisB a round of applause everyone! I mean, come on, he did his best and his best is great!
Edit: Even in the middle is great. It means you aren't a stupid idiot.

Yeah, and getting all 4s and 5s on the year-end results is just awesome. I won't be getting my report card until July 10th or so but I know it won't be nearly so glamorous.

Sure the Maths isn't the best, but nobody likes Maths anyway. Except maths teachers. And you don't want to be a maths teacher, do you?

Heh... thanks, guys - and I wish you the best luck Kyross :p believe me, miracles do happen ;)

By the way, my dad likes maths yet he isn't a math teacher (he runs a small shop and cares about electronics and orchestral equipment - loud speaker, amplifier and that kind of stuff) :)

But I don't wish to become maths teacher anyway...
