Desperate Need of Help - Lack of Time to study

<p>And no, I didn't procrastinate!</p>

<p>Thing is, with my mix of AP/IB classes I had 11 exams. I am a dumbass for taking all of them, I know. But point is, I have psychology and physics left to study. And two school afternoons.</p>

<p>Physics is my IB SL exam. I suck at physics and I know that I will probably not do well even if I study my ass off. I am expecting a 3, a 4 (maybe 5 if lucky) if I study.</p>

<p>I love psychology and I get it. Problem is, we didn't finish 1/3 of the book. So I have major studying to do.</p>

<p>My choice tomorrow when I get from school.
A- Study Psychology
B- Study Physics</p>

<p>if I study physics, i will still have one day left for psychology. do you think i can cram the course in about 5 hours? willl only 6 hours of studying help much with physics? i am testing around 6 hours on tuedsay and wednesday, os i cannot limit myself a lot on sleep (less than 6 hours)...</p>

<p>any advice?
do ib scores matter for college admission?</p>

<p>i'd say go with psychology.</p>

<p>it's easier to cram information. for physics you actually got to know the stuff</p>

<p>i say pysch.. and btw u forgot econ.. lolol :)</p>

<p>ish? haha
.... ahhh i crammed econ all wekend long loll</p>

<p>If you love psyc, study that. You'll retain the info better, and you'll enjoy it more than you would studying for physics. Even if you fail the physics test (2, for example), you'll probably do much better on the phyc test (maybe 6). That would average out to a 4 on both, which is a passing grade. Remember, you only need 4s on every IB test to get a diploma (if you're a dip. candidate, and not just going for a certificate), and this is even if you don't get the 2 extra points for your EE.</p>

<p>Edit: someone correct me if you need to pass every test to get a diploma.....and can't you retake them the next year if you fail?</p>

<p>study psych...you cant cram for conceptual material such as physics material. You either know it or you don't, kinda like calculus</p>

<p>do physics </p>

<p>I have 3 more ap left
Ill do physics tonight
and others as they come</p>

<p>well i dont really know how psych works since i have never taken it before, but if I were you, i wouldn't give up on physics entirely. juss review some equations and memorize some... just quickly, you know. like glance at the whole thing or something. and you'll probably have enough time to study psych tomorrow and day after tomorrow for the test.:)</p>

<p>Physics C: Mechanics is the last of my aps...and my worst for sure T_______<em>T, time to get my 4-5 hours of sleep !</em>!</p>

<p>blah... i will just do light studying for physics, going over **** i know.... hopefully i can pull a 4... i am gonna stop studying for physics at 10. (it is now 4) and study for psychology for an hour or two, and then tomorrow. i still have econ thursday! dieeee...
psychology is AP, thankfully...</p>

<p>ask your parents if they could get you out of school. A lot of kids are doing that at my school.</p>

<p>^ I did that, stayed out of school Thursday & Friday to study for AP B Physics</p>

<p>the thing is I don't think I review right, WORD OF ADVICE:</p>

<p>DON'T review concepts, get ur self a test & teh answers and review like that. Sereously that's the best way</p>

<p>yea PRiSM, i reviewed bunch of concepts and tried memorizing equations yesterday. didn't even do much practice questions... and i think that's why i failed my AP physics C juss noww..:*(</p>
