let me point out a few flaws in devious's commentary...you count sundays out...but do not count out the sundays in summer...therefore, leaving you with a larger number subtracted then is logical...you make the same mistake when taking in sleeping hours...if you've already discounted an entire day...you shouldn't discount extra sleeping hours for that day! etc etc...a lot of your hours subtracted far more than they should have...

Why do we mess up exams?
A year has 365 days for you to study.
After taking away 52 Sundays, there are only 313 days left. (why Sunday?)
There are 43 days – the sundays in the summer that is way too hot to work so there are only 270 days left.
We sleep 8 hours a day. + If we fooled around for only 1 hour a day. + We spend 2 hours eating each day. + We spend 1 hour a day speaking to friends and family. =12 hours…. 270 \ 2 (because of 12 being half a day) = 135 days left.
Exams and tests take up at least 35 school days in your year, hence you are only left with 100 days.
Taking off approximately 40 days of holidays, you are only left with 60 days.
Say you are sick for a minimum of 3 days, you're left with 57 days in the year to study!
Let's say you only go out for 2 days! You are left with 56 day!
But that 1 day is your birthday... so... (unless that day happens to be during the summer…so you have a minimum of 55 days if everything on your plan works exactly that way)
Good luck to everyone on your exams.

I counted around the Sundays, and because of the variances in relgion, i will use sunday, which would count as church, synagogue, whatever, it all depends on your religion... but there is at least one dayin a week that your relgion would demand you make some sort of attendance somewhere... unless you are atheist/ a stupid, blaspheming fool who doesn't care about their religion

well, first off...you can quit calling people stupid for not caring about their religion. There's a difference...their religion might be forced on them, so you have no right to critisize them for critisizing what they had no choice but to suffer through. I personally, have one half Jewish, one half christian...so I remain completely oblivious of both. I'd prefer if you do no discuss those who disbelieve/don't care in such a rude fashion ;D
Now, realizing what I've said....did you know the majority of our school basically doesn't go to church...AND, if they do, the church doesn't require them to be around for...*cough* 12 hours... (this is subtracting all the things that get subtracted from that day as well...)
so I'm sorry, it makes it quite difficult to plan your theory on time to study...because people do study.

Shannon, there no such thing as "half" christian. Christian is a religion, you either believe in it or you don't. (Jew, on the other hand, is an actual group of people, and thus one can be half.)
