    It's where you go on a learning course for five days - it's all about drugs and alcohol and stuff - and then you teach the 1st year SPHE classes for four lessons :)
    It was deadly... sorta sad it's over but I could never be a teacher xD

    It really is - it's a few days off and it actually thought me so much about alcohol and drugs (I thought I knew all there was to know!) :)
    And the first years were really cute; although they're a lot more "advanced" than I was at that age :rolleyes:

    I could only do number 1 and 2 without study. After I finished both of those within 40 minutes in the first class, my teacher thought that I was some sort of programmer. After that class I just paid a nerdy kid to do the rest of them.

    Damn JCers...you don't know how easy you have it. Wait till the LC, then you'll lose all desire to live. It's all ahead of you. Don't even think about trying to avoid it, it will capture you and envelope you in its tormenting grip, until all you can think of is the points system. When someone asks you what you want to eat, your first reply will be '500 points please'. Your dreams will be full of panic and despair at your imminent failure, and then there will come a point when you will concede and admit defeat to that big, hairy, all-empowering beast. Bow down and accept it now, minions. Accept it now...

    I'm having a bad day study-wise and you people are the only people that actually have to listen to me. Have a nice day now, remember there is always hope. :) Unless it comes to the Leaving Cert, then there is never hope.

    It's actually p!ss easy, just the effort of going through all the lessons because they're really long - we have three classes per week in it and every is meant to finish the last module by April (I finished in January SCUPP) :D

    It's just learning how to use Microsoft Office applications and learning about the world of IT in general - there's 7 modules and you do a diagnostic (mock) test in each one, and then the real test - you need 75% to pass. But in all honesty, you have to be either really silly or really lazy not to do well in it; I hate computers with a passion but I got over 91% in every test thanks to a bit of common sense ;)

    In your first test you will be hit with a barrage of difficult questions like "minimise the window?"

    I'm in 5th year lolzzzzzzz. S'actually hard, there is nothing at the end of it to provoke serious study, yet if you don't put in the work you'll be screwed next year. My post was slightly hyperbolic, it's not the worst (seventeen times better than 1st-3rd year) and scaring JCers is one of my many past-times, among cooking them over a spit and the like.

    Venting is fun at any rate. :) Let tomorrow be a better day for us all!
