It's now the 2nd week of exams. I've just completed my Maths paper 2 exam today. That makes it 3 down, 3 to go. Physics is down, Business is down too and Maths is down three. The three subjects left for me is English, Econs and French.
The 1st week of exam is the most stressful for me as I have papers everyday. The 2nd week represents a reprieve as I only have 3 papers, which is Maths paper 2, English paper 1 & 2. But I'm still worried about 'An Evil Cradling' and 'Wind, Sand & Stars'. I'm planning to start reading them today. I have 3 days to make up for it. So, it'll be curtains for me.
Listed below is my remaining schedule for the whole IB exams:
Week 2
Wed (12/11) - English HL (Paper 1) [12.30pm - 2.30pm]
Thu (13/11) - English HL (Paper 2) [8.00am - 10.00am]
Week 3
Wed (19/11) - Econs HL (Paper 1) [12.30pm - 1.30pm]
Wed (19/11) - Econs HL (Paper 2) [2.00pm - 3.00pm]
Thu (20/11) - Econs HL (Paper 3) [8.00am - 10.00am]
Fri (21/11) - French (Paper 1) [8.00am - 9.30am]
Fri (21/11) - French (Paper 2) [10.00am - 11.15am]
Then, I'll be out of jail after 2 years. Sounds like ISA where you're stuck in Kamunting without any trial for two years. But in this case, I call it IBA (IB Act) where you are withheld for 2 years in order to pass the exams. However, it works like house arrest from 8.00am till 3.40pm. Then you go scot-free until the next day and so on and so on. YUP, it's a boring life after all.
Oh well, I gotta go read my 'Evil Cradling' and 'Wind, Sand & Stars'. I'll continue blogging again when I feel like blogging. LOL.

IB exams
Boy, I haven't blogged in a long time. No thanks to IB exams. LOL.
These are the subjects that I took for IB:
1. English A1 HL
2. French ab initio
3. Economics HL
4. Business & Management HL
5. Mathematics SL
6. Physics SL
Compulsory subjects: TOK, CAS, EE
My main aim is to get at least a 35. My uncle wants me to aim for 40. So, we'll see what happen later on.
Now, my major exams are going on. The exam that will determine whether I'll be able to get to university or not. As I was surfing the Net, I discovered the IB marks breakdown given by the moderator on ibscrewed.net
The marks were already determined since 2003 and those were the standard marks and may change or may not change, depending on the discretion of the one with power to set the marks.
So, for my subjects, the breakdown is as follows:

4 - 43%
5 - 57%
6 - 69%
7 - 80%
French ab initio:

5 - 57%
6 - 72%

If anyone of you guys wanted any information on your respective subjects, you can ask me anytime. LOL. Now, I got to focus on the rest of the exams. LOL. I'll continue to blog when I have the time.
Oo ya, that doesn't mean that I can rest on my laurels any time soon. I still got to work hard for it. As this quote says: Hope for the best, expect the worst.
