Well, I am kind of looking foward to 6th year and I have been told its the best year of school, but I am also dreading it as it means work..

Whopper Leaving Cert buzz fo' life, mofo's and biatches!!!!


I can't wait for college, though.

But seriously, anyone feeling like they can't remember anything from last year? I'm sure it'll come back, but still, it's pretty worrying.

And I'm taking up another subject, btw. Anyone else?

Book accomidation early,Don't be like me who's going looking for somewhere to Live in cork tomorrow

If you're eligible for a grant,Try not to lose the stuff the teacher gives you,And take notes of the stuff he tell's you,Don't be like me who's waiting for a reply from the local county council office to see what needs to be done

Ah ya'll be sound, the september to x-mas of 5th year is the worst time ya'll ever have in school(presuming you skipped 4th year), but after that it's okay.

O ya, and ya have the whole summer after 5th year to look forward to, best summer I've had so far!

Grant? Just sell off your camera Ricky, you should have enough to cover accommodation for first year at least anyway.

Buy a disposable instead!

Heading into 6th year. Back on the 31st of august. 2 weeks. Bollocks. Been lurking in this forum for the last year or so. I hope it continues to be helpful. I just want to get the Leaving Cert over and done with tbh. Very jealous of those just finished.

Reillyman

MU HU HAHA, I don't go back until friday 4th Sept, and to mark the occasion I'm going to see the Script live that night:P

Kersmash

Eww, the script :P

*bitter*

Yeah well I get a head start on study....... woo..... =/

Gael23

Starting 6th on 31st August. Sometimes I feel really nervous about it and others I dont care. Hope to be posting on here a bit.

anothernight

Starting 6th year on the 28th of august. The first day is only 2 hours.. but I don't want to go!!

Can't wait for college though.

Idjit

Hey guys I'm part of the year thats hopping on the next bus outta here, but I just wanna say good luck to you all! And remember that whatever studying you do, to really push out your answers on the day of the exam. I missed out on college by five measly points! That could've been gotten by inching one of my grades up one!
And if it doesn't all go according to plan on the day, there are always other options! Many options! You'll get where you're going so don't worry yourself!

DancingQueen:)

I'm starting on the 28th aswel and not looking forward to any of the work!
In 5th year i kept telling myself i was going to study and never really doing it but this year i'm hoping it will change!
And i'm also not looking forward to the CAO :eek:
I've heard it was the best year yet but it's going to be hard competing with TY : ]

RexMundi

Going into 6th... can't wait to be done with it all to be honest.

Anyway, it can't be that bad for if we work hard... we must play hard
Yay for 18ths!!

FredBaby!

ugh 6th year...i'm hoping it will go fast! it'll be fun being the top dawg at school again...
truth be told i'm kinda bricking it whenever i think about having to go back to school :eek:

doug.irl.92

Going into 6th myself, not sure when I'm back though....Should probably find that out!!
Should be a fun year, what with training between 6 and 8 times a week and also preparing for that little test in June!!

xIsabelx

6th year was definitely my best time in school. Yeah, you have to study but we had amazing teachers who helped us out with so many things. I don't think I've ever heard someone say "Stop worrying!" to me so much :rolleyes:

Everyone in my year was much closer in 6th year as well, so that probably helped things as well. Everyone just seemed to gel together so much better.

Good luck, Leaving Certs of tomorrow.

Attention class of 2010: Go away. We at the class of 09 hereby announce our coup of the Leaving Cert forums. You can join in on the forums, but as our minions only.

I like your thinking! I've heard from loads of this years 6thyrs that 6th year is the best year of school.. looking foward to May - PrizeGiving, Graduation, Last Days of school etc..which I could just fast foward the rest!!

completely agree!

not bakunin

I thought that LC was easily the best year of my secondary education...we f ucked around, not really giving a turd for what those in charge thought of our antics. the last year and all y'see. One lad in the year set up a hairdressing salon in the old dorm and practically the entire year took irish off at some stage during the year for a trim......and the mitching, ahh yes.....it became so easy. You seem official in LC. In our school anyways, it was a case of..........ah, out of class? well, i suppose youre just heading to the photocopying room to photocopy....stuff...to help with your education. wonderful. please proceed.

and so on.


going into college now, seems like i'll have to reel myself in!

Saul-Good

Good luck fresh meat, you'll need it!:D

But seriously, 6th year=best year. I think the best advice I can give to stay sane for as much of the year as possible is to balance work(which there's a lot of) and play(fortunately, also a lot of). Work as hard as you can all week, 12 hour school days like, then when the weekend comes round, have as much fun as you can, rip it up!

Now my final words of wisdom: No one's ever regretted too much study.

Good luck guys, you have your most eventful year of school all ahead of you.

I've lurked these boards since I was in 3rd Year. I refuse to be shoved out by a bunch of n00bs.

Though it does seem a bit boring now that I've finished. I don't care about any of you, you're not me! :pac:

Come to think of it, browsing here has been a waste of time. I'm pretty sure I've ignored every piece of good advice that was ever given.

You'll do the same!

No I won't, I'm going to work like a mad man this year...

*Can't wait to see this post in a few months time...:rolleyes:

Kersmash

Hah! Likewise. I've such good intentions, I wonder how quickly it'll take for them to fall by the wayside. Hopefully I can stick at it.

Davidius

Personally I found that I got too used to the laziness of Summer. I worked enough in 5th Year but in 6th Year I was mostly in the mindset of "Sure it's only September, October, November..., June...ah bollox".

Whatever you do, try to do homework out of the way. Don't be like me and cram it into the lunch break before the class for when it's due.

Avoid games, especially TF2. They love to release updates at really bad times:
Heavy Update: End of August last year
Scout Update: During the Mocks
Sniper/Spy Update: Two weeks before the Leaving.
Latest Update: A couple of days ago.

It's pure addictive evil. Like drugs. :pac:
