    The junior cert is different for everyone, i found it to be very easy and i did very well in it but it all comes down to different things. The better you are at remembering things is obviously helpful, i've a good memory and hardly had to study cuz i could remember stuff from class.

    Gauge how hard you think each exam would be based on your exam experience, like if you've never found maths exams hard then you most likely won't find J.C. maths hard, but then again if you've a crap teacher in a subject its hard to compare their exams with the actual one.

    Its alot easier to do well in it than in the leaving. If you study what you need to study rather than studying for the sake of it you should be grand, just take your teachers advice throughout the year and keep your exam papers as a reference.

    The junior cert is good for certain things. Exam experience, being able to do what higher level in the leaving, and unfortunately for alot of people it can be to not get in trouble with their parents.

    I'm halfway through the exams now, and they're sure not the huge shock that I was expecting. That said, we don't get our results for a while, so I can;t really say :cool:
