Ok, well this year is my last year before I graduate. I just got the results back from an mock exam and all I can say right now is.. OUCH.
Needless to say, I have to start spending more time studying and less time on Anime / ZA. I'm not putting this on the main page, as I don't want too many people to see this.

The ammount of time I spend on Zone anime, Will be greatly reduced , I'll still try my best to come on from time to time, to fix bugs and make sure there are no problems, but as i'm sure most of you would agree, studies comes before anime :P.

Now I just have to wait for my parents to see the results :S

Thanks people, I really hope the staff team [that are doing an excellent job running ZA] will manage without me, I've spent an enormous ammount of time in the last 2 weeks [Link checking & VB transfer].

Well I'll be on from time to time, just my answers won't be as fast. I hope I can rely on AoN a bit more :P

RL comes first dude, and take it from me you don't wanna screw up your education and look back in 2 years saying "wish i put more time in".
I spent allot of my uni time on MMO's and i regret now that i didn't put that time into study, still got a 2:2 but it could of been better.

Make a schedule for yourself, a chart with when you should be studying and working is good to keep you focused and not distracted. Also helps with eh stress a bit as it makes you feel organized

I find having some music in the background while i work a godsend to keep me focused, not to loud mind you

admin, you take care of your studies, I may be a high school drop-out, but I'm a Marine and a programming guru, so, no worries. :P

Kilson...when was the last time you had a CAT scan?

lojik...poor, deluded, lojik...education is of no importance...look at me, I dropped out from one of the top schools in the US, and my GPA jumped from a 1.0833 to a 4.0 when I moved on the college. Furthermore...ahhhh, what's the point, I'm a genius, you need your education. :P

I agree high school is pointless, but a University degree is different imo, i was talking about my degree not my lower education, having a good degree has helped allot in my life, high school sucked and is a total waste of time.

I wouldnt worry to much about having what they say they want, many courses only fill about 60% of there slots with people who actually have the required grades, after that they ask people who have close to or even not so close to grades to join the course.

so if you need 2 A's and a B even if you have 3 B's i would still apply for the course if you realy wanna get in it.

They still doing that thing were you can only apply for 3 courses ?

Grades are important, but most schools nowadays don't just look at that anymore. You'll need to be active in sports and also participate in clubs, not to mention community service (don't just do it to go to college)

Luckily enough for myself I jsut need to get in hours of community service!

Well I'm not too sure about abroad, but here in the US colleges look at your Junior/Sophmore year the most, so you better have done well those times!
