Are you going to do TY?

I have to decide soon enough whether or not I want to do it.

Have you decided yet?

Transition year/fourth year.

I probably will, I dont want to be 17 in collage. And my birthday is the very end of May so I would be 17 for the first year.

My school though theres so many trips and stuff they can only take a limited number so we have interviews for it, so meh I may not be doing it.

Not sure yet but I probably will, so I'll say yes

We have to do it in our school so yeah. It's not a complete doss (you still have classes, even though they're easy and you don't get h/w in some subjects), but it's still quite fun I just can't wait to get Third Year over and done with!

Exactly what I ws thinking.You still have normal classes but do a load of fun stuff aswell and go to loads of places.I think they used to do 1 day of driving lessons in my school, can't remember if they do them anymore though.

It really depends on your school, some schools seem to do sweet f all for their TYs, while some seem to put a huge effort into their program.

[Mod warning] anyone who posts saying TY is shít/a waste of time dont do it with backing it up in some way will be infracted and have their post deleted......

Driving lessons? Sounds mad! Are they in a centre? I could imagine it in papers TY students go crazy on the street!:pac:

Talking to some of my friends that did TY, they had good craic but wish now they hadn't done it as they could be in college. I'm glad I skipped now, but if your school is good for TY or if all your mates are doing it it'd be a harder choice to make.

In my school we have to do TY. However, I would anyway because otherwise I'd be doing my leaving at 16, college at 17 etc.

Same, I won't be 15 until November. I'd love to get a dance scholarship or do some course but theres none.
If I were you I would do it and try get the scholarship. You might just like the 2nd years (I don't like them in my school either) but it's a relaxing year and you can improve on golf.

You actually do LOTS eg projects musical and work exp and get a taster of subjects for next year

and yes I am currently doing and loving it

biglittlebill

I wouldn't recommend doing it. I Done Forth year and going into fifth my word ethos was completely f_ed. I thought it would be a great laugh but now near the end of 6th year i am badly regretting it. But different strokes for different folks i suppose

I'll just do it if all my friends are doin it .. I need time to improve on sport aswell :S
