Exams: DD has just asked her brother to re-set her Facebook password,,

[Milliways]

..so she cannot access it until after her exams!

I now wish to write to her examiners saying this is definately showing commitment and needs an additional 10% at least adding to her mark.

Hope all are all coping with revision out there

good on her
I wish I could get someone to reset mine then I would get a lot more done lol

DS2 always does this when he takes exams - he's very disciplined and committed. His brother does mega sessions in the university library involving large vacuum flasks of coffee. They both know how easy it is to be distracted.

i wish somebody would do that to me ans mumsnet.

Spare a thought as well for those of us gearing up to mark the GCSEs. PLEASE stress to your kids that it is important to write in black pen as the exams are scanned and we mark online. It is so hard to read if they do not use black pens, and makes our job harder.

Goodness me the thought of DD2 doing this is laughable. I'll suggest it to her just to see the expression on her face. She is disciplined when she gets started but the day for starting revision is not upon us yet apparently

DD1 has university exams in a weeks time and she is holed up in her room watching people frolic in the sunshine outside.

Good for your DD Milliways!

I've had to seriously restrict the amount of time my DD, 13, spends on Facebook. Even though she's conscientious about schoolwork/homework, she still spends far too much time engaging in social networking. I think it's more a girl thing because my DS reckons FB is rubbish!
