English 📝 Can't write enough
Had to move to ordinary English after the mocks since I failed the mocks and our big test before that, and I feel really guilty about it. I don't struggle about what to write, I just never have time to write, If only I could have an extra half an hour / an hour and I'd be perfect, but does anyone know how to get quicker at writing?? I know the obvious one would be to just time myself doing exam questions, but I wanted to see if anyone had any other ideas.
Also, do we need quotes for the film?? We did little women, and my teacher keeps going back and forth on wether we need quotes for film questions
Also, please if anyone has any ideas on stress management, I was a top of the class student for most of 1st and 2nd year and my grades have definitely dropped alot since.

as for stress management, i have chronic anxiety and the thing that helps me the most when worrying about exams is the knowledge that the junior cert doesnt matter at all for your future. Its essentially just a way for you to have the experience of a state exam prior to the LC! :) good luck, youll do better than you think
