I'm going to try and be confident. There's no point in worrying over it because it doesn't really mean a whole lot. I still want to do really well but I won't mind really if I don't do as well as I want to do. I usually expect the worst but being confident is usually a whole lot better. You probably know more than you think. You might not necessarily be able to recite off reams of stuff now but when it matters it will just come to you.:)

Go in being positive! Otherwise you'll just make yourself more stressed out and you won't be able to concentrate!

Always be confident.
If you are confident, you will stick at questions even if you find them a bit difficult.

How to pass the Junior:
Believe you can
Do the right number of questions
Answer the question asked.

Think positive. Go into it thinking I am going to get 10 A's or else you'll get freaked out and nevous. Girl in my year attributes her 10 A's equally to positive thinking and studying.

Come September you'll all be talking about how easy it all was compared to the leaving cert
It really is designed for you to do your best. There is no bell curve grade arrangement like in the LC meaning only a certain number get As e.t.c. In the Junior Cert they are looking to get you as high a grade as your work merits so just study and think positive and you'll be getting As left, right and centre

That said, the Leaving Cert is quite different. But you shouldn't worry about that now, worry about it when you start fifth year

Be confident or expect the worst???
