Its just final year butterflies.

i'm sure you'll do just fine, you've managed to get to final yr... alhamdulilah

not so sure about the isoc commitments i don't think i'll be as active this year as i'm entering final year aswell.

But we shall see.

Just don't worry about it, make plenty of du'a and you'll be fine.

I advise you to draw up a timetable for your day Inshaa'Allah, and follow it strictly. Make it specific and detailed, but make sure you keep it realistic as well. This will ensure that you use your time in as efficent a way as possible.

My mum makes me do it. I was resentful at first, but it actually works!

jazakallah ppl, i will try to be a better student. I am scared abt my final year and finking abt the project. iam on a computer course and pretty scared of third year as it is much harder , as i have been told. i seriously need to love programming in order to do a project. YaAllah help.
its demanding, and want to be on isoc as well, we need alot of ppl on isoc.. i did my best this yr, wish i could have done more, i really dont know whats going to happen.. One thing that sticks in mind is, as imam suhaib webb said when he came to our uni for the FOSIS conference was:
its money that makes the world go around, so we as the ummah have to be the best at what we do, so we can inshallah help our ummah.. he's rite, May Allah give myself and us all Passion to achieve the necesary skills to be successful in this duniya , help our ummah here and in the akhira..Ameen.

sis ur doing a placement.. thats good, has it been beneficial?
i havnt really seen that thread. need to check it out!
i really hope i can make up for it.

I am a terrible procrastinator as well. And have exams in two weeks. My cure for that is to study with somebody. We have a partially blind girl in my class (she can't read), so me and a friend study with her in a group. We assign ourselves a set amount to study per day to go over together the next day orally. I don't have to worry about revising anymore, as both my study partners are exceptionally good worriers and do all the worrying/scolding necessary to keep me on track.

best of luck, hope u succeed in what you do!! iam bad, leave stuff to the last minute, i really hope i dont anymore inshallah.:D

Hmm..I have nobody to 'study' with who is currently in my situation..But Alhamdulillah, the previous placement students who've come back to work in the lab as well as the ones who've just finished their placement have leant me the use of their portfolio to refer to so I have a guideline as to what to do even though my versions different..
I guess I'm gettin there..it's just the fact that most of the work is just health and safety stuff and it's BORING..but parts of it are interesting (the parts that actually have something to do with the Sciency side!)
Sis Jannat, am lovin the placement..though it is quite stressful!
Bro Osman, I shall Insha'allh check the thread out.. Bro Mujahid..thanks for the link..
