    So I have a 24 in a class right now, but I have the next year completely planned out where I can take the same class and take the next level of the class because I finished a different class this year. It might sound confusing but I was just wondering if you guys agree with me that I should skip this exam (final). I just feel like there's no point because I don't think I could get my mark up by 26 with this. Also I'm moving to a different school before next year so should I go to it?

    If it doesn't matter whether you take the exam or not, it might be beneficial to take it just to see what questions could be asked. That's what I would do, at any rate.

    No, I wouldn't skip an exam because things are looking bleak for you right now! I would take the exam and see what comes of it. Just take the exam so you know what questions summarize the particular section you're covering so you can know if you did an appropriate amount of studying in depth or not.

    Yeah you're right about the hour thing. I suppose it would be a little better if I went. They might have questions that will be on other ones. the only problem with this one is that it's Science, so lots of math formulas I haven't figured out. :/ The chances if we were writing the same one would be so awesome lmao.

    is it a diploma? because for each exam there are certain styles of questions that they stick to (especially for maths/sciences).
    if it's a test for a lower grade, usually they do diploma-style questions so the same still goes.

    i feel like some of the tests you can pass with just common sense and reading skills... my friend said that on her bio diploma there was a question asking just how long a human pregnancy is.

    Well it probably would have similar questions that were on other tests but I do have no idea how to do the maths for the science. As for the multiple choice, it would be good to see how many I could get right.

    Also the human pregnancy test, I'd have to just joke with that if I ever got it and say 9 days or weeks :icon_wink

    eh, might as well give it a try. worst comes to worst, just plug stuff into the equations on your formula sheet until you get an answer that seems reasonable. :wink:
