    study

    you can get all B's and C's without doing a tap really but getting all A's is just studying...

    simple as - no shortcuts - otherwise everyone would get all A's which would make the system look stupid

    Answer the correct combination of questions (sections, options etc.)
    Answer the questions you are asked.

    You might be surprised how many don't actually do the latter.

    Learn your textbooks off by heart. Really! That's what one of my friends did and she got all A's in her mocks.
    Work from exam papers, not only is it revision but you'll get used to answering what they WANT and the way the questions are asked.
    Study, and prepare like french letters and irish essays.

    I got all A's (11) in my Junior Cert and to be honest I didn't find it that hard. I actually studied more in 1st and 2nd year than 3rd year, I got lazier in 3rd year with study. Just keep on top of all subjects. Learn as you go along and do your homework properly. Another tip I have is to do even a bit of study before homework so that you have some done. I always started homework straight away when I came home from school after dinner. Make sure the room is ok, temperature wise, light, distractions. Don't study with music!
    Make sure you exercise and get fresh air, even a 5 minute walk around your house is beneficial, take lots of water and make sure you take breaks. Find out what study methods are right for you. Go to bed early! You need sleep, I was exhausted, I literally couldn't do anything I was so tired for a while! Turned out I had anaemia but even with tablets I was still very tired so make sure you get sleep. Practice English and Maths questions a lot too. TBH it's very doable!
    Hope this helps, if you need anything else just ask :)
