finals, i am going to fail!!!!!

i have finals coming up and tommarow i have an oral final in japanese and i am going to FAIL it.......
aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so stressed and worried about it........i can't even express in words how worried i am.....:(

Hmmm, can you express them in japaneeeeeeeeeeeeeeese words?!?!?! (just kidding). I wanna learn japanese. Anyway, youre not gonna fail, the best thing to do is not worry about it, just do it. The more you worry about it the more youll expect problems, the more you expect problems the more youll have, if that makes any sense. Just go in there, do it, and youll do perfectly fine.

Anyway, best of luck to you!!!!!

I know it probably sounds really lame, but I found when I had exams that the best thing to do was remain calm and keep a positive frame of mind. I know it sounds easier said than done, but it really did help me heaps.

Good luck and I’m sure you’ll do fine! :)

Yeah, keeping calm is really important. You might have a brainfart and forget stuff if you get too nervous. Since this is a oral test, I'm guessing you're reciting something or performing a skit. Well practice, practice, practice! When I had my second Japanese oral, I had to do it in front of the class and I forgot some of my lines--even though I knew it perfectly when I practiced. Still, I think I wouldn't have been as good if I hadn't practice that much (ie: my first oral test)

Good luck, a foreign language is always difficult.

thanks you guys....i'll keep the advice and do my best....
thanks again :)

Ha! I have no more finals! (only because I graduated a long time ago)

I have finals in about 1.5 weeks. :(

Seeing threads like this makes me glad that I ain at school any more

SmallTown: You'll be fine, I'm sure. Foreign languages are difficult, but if you focus and can keep your mind on the task instead of your worries you will do well.


I have finals starting in less than a week :( I'm not looking forward to any of them...

Im not in college yet, so i can laugh at all of you :D ...for about a year and half.....then its gonna be me :eek:

well, i thought i would let everyone know how i did on my Japanese final. I think i did okay...most likely around a B+ or if i am lucky A- so i am pretty happy right now....thanks again to everyone who gave me friendly advice.....:)

just wanna be the first one to say.............

CONGRATULATIONS!

:D

I'll second that...Congratulations!! I'm sure you did well. I just had a "midterm" on Monday. I got a 62% while the average is 44.9% with standard deviation of 8%. It was a hard physics test.

Well, thank you guys very much...i really appreciate(sp?) your show of support....and man that must have been a doozy of a physics test...i feel for ya....:)

Btw, what year are ya in Japanese? I remember discussing Japanese with you on the "Age" thread.

I completed 1st year last year. I had no room for Japanese this year, so I'm thinking of taking 2nd year intensive in the summer. That's a whole year worth of Japanese in one quarter!! I have friends in 2nd year Japanese right now, and they say that it is very difficult and a lot of work. But Japanese--and foreign languages in general--have always been easy for me. So, who know...

Yeah, the physics test was hard. Electromagnetism is supposedly the hardest course in the physics series.

Well, i took four years of Japanese in high school, but i decided that i wanted to start over in college so i am in the first year japanese class. Some of it is easy, like the hiragana and katakana, but i am still learning new things so its all good. This winter i am applying to study abroad in Japan for the fall semester of next year. Hopefully, i will be able to go....Well, for you sake, i hope that was the hardest course in the physics series, and that it just gets easier.....:)

I just got done with my first one, thats one down three to go.

hmmmmmm......did you finish your first year in Janpese or did you finish your first test?....sorry, i just did not understand what you were saying.....:(

I took about two years of Japanese in HS, and took the last course of the 1st year JP series in college (placed into it). I still learned some new stuff, but I mostly knew more than people here--like weather isn't taught until 2nd year!

Yeah, I wanna study abroad in Japan; visit Kyoto for the temples and shrines, Hokkaido for the snow festival, and Tokyo for the city life (and auto show).

Sorry, my first final
