well here is my advice...
When u go to lectures make notes, try to record lectures and then go straight to library, and read on that topic as much as you can, then when exams are approaching try solving past papers (if ure university provides) and go to professors office, u'll surely get some hints and tips. Before going to exam take a bath and chill and sleep well. :good:

Any advice on how to study maths?

*Prepare for lectures before getting to class. Use your textbook and skim through and try to get a basic understanding of the sections being covered in lecture before you go to lecture.
*Take organized notes during lecture
*Don't try to study for exams the day before the exam. Give yourself 4 or 5 days to review material in smaller portions than cramming everything in 1 day.

Practise, maths is one of those subjects.
What my favourite maths teacher has always told me is not to overdo the amount of practise. Once you can do something, you can do it - its more important that you're able to actually understand how something works rather than spending 5 hours a day just doing questions. Once you can get it right a few times, move on and focus on something else.
Also, 10 minute breaks every hour helps.

If you failed all 6 subjects then that might mean that you're doing the wrong thing. I'd suggest having a strong think about it and try and find something that you enjoy, rather than something you try really hard at and then fail.
This is the rest of your life you're influencing now. Do you want to spend the rest of your life doing something you're not good at?
Sorry, but sometimes you need a hard truth.

Don't think about it bro. Better times will come, everyone has their ups and downs. You are not alone. Though, now, you need to concentrate on your studies and your future. Nothing else will benefit you. Stay positive bro, keep your mind off your ex, she is missing out and you deserve better. Stay strong!! :thumbup:

The thing is, that's something she needs to learn. I know that you want to make sure she doesn't do anything stupid but she has to find her own moral compass.
At the same time its important that you get back on track with your uni studies and as Archer said, maybe doing something you enjoy. Otherwise, in all truth, you'd be wasting time.

oka1 is someone I would consider a "friend" on here... much, much more so than the "kids" on here who just ask a ton of questions (for no apparent reason) and those who troll.
I "like" all the people on here who GENUINELY seem to be here for the RIGHT reasons.
Not really. This community is just too big to get to know each other. If it was smaller then yeah maybe we would be buddies. With the exception of us metalheads. We will always be brothers, buddies no matter where we are \m/ another thing to add, most prople here are kids(immature). If not kids the're noobs who can't read.

If it wasn't for the "kids" on this forum, then this forum would be straight-out boring.
You guys are boring, the oldies, yes i'm talking about you.
It's like as soon as you became age 25+ you stopped learning to just "chill" and have fun. I'm sure you have fun in real life with people your same age or your kids or something, but without us here, this would be one hell of a lonely forum.
Some people need to accept that teens have smartphones, "OH I WONDER, WHY WOULD A 16 YEAR OLD BOY NEED A SMARTPHONE?!"
We like their functionalities. If you didn't notice from when YOU were a teen, teens are extremely curious. Don't act as if you were never a teen. You acted the same as us, and don't deny it.
SOME may be "over-dramatic"? or more immature, that i understand but immaturity is a part of being a teen, accept it or just gtfo.

M_T_M closed the last thread saying it would lead to gun control arguments or something, although nothing like that was ever mentioned. He asked nobody create a new thread about it so just a heads up he will probably close this one too. That said, I have been thinking about the families and those affected all day. I have a friend that just moved to CO and first thing I did this morning was call him because I was not sure what part he had moved to exactly.
Edit: Wow at your speed test, that's amazing.
If it needs to be closed all is well.. I just felt like I should do something. The thing I hate most about this life is that stuff like this happens and there's usually nothing you can do about it.

Believe me we appreciate the sentiment.
I was going to allow it and monitor for any trolling/inappropriate response however I must respect M_T_Ms previous decision and follow suit.
Of course we are all deeply sympathetic and our thoughts go out to those affected, however I would not like to see such a poignant and well intentioned thread ruined by trolls.
Once again though, thankyou for the sentiment.

Wait, you say you're a librarian but you then say you're tired of people thinking you're a librarian? I'm confused. You could take a leaf out of the Unseen university's librarian's book and turn into an orangutan* then you'd just have people mistaking you for a monkey, but you'd be able to rip their arms off so they'd soon learn.
*I can't believe the iPad doesn't know the word "orangutan" but then, the Librarian does prefer bananas to apples. Oook.

Off topic has to actually involve a topic independent of yourself. If not, its just a self serving thread.

Do long distance relationships work????

Hey guys.
I am very curious!!! Because of this girl but she lives in another city that she wants to be in a relationship but I'm like "babygurl hold up, hell nah"
But then I was wondering if it would work or it's just a waste of time???
Not you again.
While only you can truly know if it can work, my experience is no. I say this not because of any experience with a long distance relationship, of which I have had none, of the experiences I've had with regular relationships. I've been married 5 years. Only cause I'm in her life and she is in mine for all this time, had it worked. We are social creatures, we need intimacy and touch for a relationship to last any significant amount of time.
Depends on the both of your abilities.
"What's my problem? You."
I never understood why people even think long distance relationship is even a chance. I mean... Why? How will it ever work? You will not see her in months, that's not the idea of relationship. No, it will not work.
Sent from my teddy bear
My relationship isn't necessarily long distance, but it is. We live an hour away from eachother & we both have jobs with completely different hours. I works days & he works nights. We see eachother every other weekend & talk on the phone as much as we can. We have ups & downs like every other couple. Been to together for two & half happy years still going & we are shopping for our first house together
You should know, you're very cool ya know.

Listen to the 7th son of gawd my dear alan.
How do you want to define your relationship and what do you want it to consist of?
Cuddling up watching a movie, dome at the movie theater, long walks, waking up together, looking into each other's eyes over a romantic dinner, intercourse, sharing hobbies and experiences... that all requires a shorter distance (even shorter for the less fortunate).
However, if talking on the phone and occasional visits are all you need, and you're both fine if it never changes, go for it.
Remember, all relationships prior to your first marriage are practice for that marriage. Don't let things get serious that don't need to be. If you feel you're going to end up marrying someone, be cautious and completely certain before letting it get serious. Otherwise, it's all for fun. If it won't at least be fun, don't do it.

Ahhhh @VeryCoolAlan. Do you want the answer you want, the answer a joker would give you, or my answer, otherwise known as the truth?
I'll put mine here for the sake of history.
If someone says it will and it does, then they were right.
If someone says it won't and it doesn't, then they were right.
Neither of the above people knew the truth. They just gave an opinion which is irrelevant to the actual outcome.
It may work. It may not.
If you don't try, you'll never find out. It may be beautiful and last your whole life, or it may be torturous and cause you heartbreak and agony.
It's your risk.
It's your choice.
