I hope you do well Blazey with your exams...all you can do is your best.

I left school at 15 and had to go out to work.....my family needed the income.
But I did return to study when i was 26 (just a few years ago)and did my nurse training. It was three years of hard slog, working on the wards and studying as well. I was one of the oldest students in my group and studied ALL the way through my three years...but in the last month before my finals I chucked all my text books into a suitcase and put them on top of the wardrobe......I figured that what I didn't know by then I would NEVER learn in the last month.
I came top in the Hospital finals and passed my finals the following month.....it was one of the best things I ever did.
