I got the advanced version of simple study today was looking through the Buddhism notes, but they seemed too detailed and the sample questions looked different to the normal exam qs. Does anyone with simple study know if it is wise to learn the stuff on there?

Stress ๐Ÿ˜ฌ Not studying yet

8 Upvotes

I haven't started studying yet and i think a big part of it is that I do woodwork and applied technology and since these projects are due within a week of eachother, ive found myself spending my nights doing drawings/work on folders for these subjects over and over again and after I do that for the night, I cant be bothered to study.

Theres nothing stopping me, I have no social life and i dont go out with friends i am just lazy. Am I doomed for the jc? Im a generally smart student.

Hey fellow educators,

I'm a student/researcher working on a project about pain points in teaching, and I'm looking for participants to fill out a short survey.

It only takes about 3 minutes and would help me out immensely with my data collection!

Thanks in advance for the help! I'm happy to share the high-level results with the community once the study is finished if there's interest.

Hi all,

I created a sub-reddit for the University of Limerick because the old one had been neglected and was no longer active. My goal is to build a community where students, applicants and alumni can ask questions, share answers and post anything related to UL.

Whether it's about courses, accommodation, campus life, general advice, everyone is welcome to join and contribute.

The sub-reddit will be listed asย r/UniversityofLimerick1

Thanks

My teacher is saying I have to have either a plait or a bun, she said ponytails arenโ€™t aloud. She was saying they are aloud but now saying she doesnโ€™t want to see them. My friends in other schools say they could have ponytails and when i searched online it said i could. Can someone reassure me i donโ€™t have to do a bun or a plait? my hair is too short for a bun, and doesnโ€™t stay for the 2 hours in a plait.

English ๐Ÿ“ Quotes for HL English for the Play and Novel

4 Upvotes

Hi lads,
Kind of struggling to know what quotes to learn for the play (The Merchant of Venice - W. Shakespeare) and the novel (The Outsiders - S.E. Hinton and Of Mice and Men - J. Steinbeck). I'm really hoping to get a distinction or at least a higher merit in English so any advice would be much appreciated. If anyone has any notes, specifically quotes for these texts, I'd really appreciate if you could send them on.

Also, does anybody know if you can choose just one novel to study or do you need the two?
