yes, summer tests are nothing like the actual leaving cert and you've only covered half the material for your exams.

In saying all that, it was hugely benificial, and I'm glad I did it, even though it took a huge amount out of me and I'm still recovering.

Most of the people on my course were legends which made it tolerable, but be under no illusions, you will be worked to death, andwill be exhausted by Wednesday. I recommend going to bed early tonight

Good luck
I'm looking forward to it. I'll be staying with my family in our second house in Tralee so at least I can go "home" every night. I want to frontload the work for 6th Year by learning loads and doing good essays and getting good notes etc. at BnaP so that I can keep up my As in Irish with slightly less effort during 6th Year. I've 8 other subjects to work on as well as SAT stuff and US college applications so if I can reduce my stress in one subject it'll be handy.

Yeah but I mean a friend of mine was ranting on Twitter about being up writing Irish essays at 5am this morning down there.
That ain't right.

When does everyone go back?

(I would have asked this in the LC 2013 thread, but 1. I couldn't find it. 2. I'm trying to deny the fact that I'm a 6th year now...)

5th year is grand, nothing to worry about really.

Just pay attention in class all the time and do all your homework and you'll be fine. Make sure you don't fall behind on anything.
