It's probably a tie between:
*Have sex with 7 different people in 7 nights
*Star in a porno OR release a sex tape
*Do it with twins

In fairness though you could manage to do all those in one really good week :pac:

You could achieve all those in 1 go :P

For a lad who tripped in the middle of his HPAT exam you have pretty high ambitions . . . Remember not to do that this time!

We have all the smart people, yet no notice of sportsmen? In my school we have PE twice a week(sporty-ish school), but since after Christmas we can just go to study. I still do PE, and train couple of times a week.

We keep up our full PE class all the way up as well, including 6th year. 80 minutes, minus time to change before and shower after.

For the susi grant, the income limits and stuff on the site is that before or after tax? I'm a bit slow when it comes to understanding this whole grant system :P

Crap. Is it bad that I don't understand this? Sigh.

Then perhaps it's time to open your Bildergeschichte book, it's the most common question. I have 3 out of 5 ready, the a.g are all right. Only the role plays need a bit of work.

By the way, do we have any speedway fans? First GP of the season friday night wheeeey!

You can't was just looking at the income limits seeing if I apply

Alright. Apparently it's gross (which makes no sense). Not 100% though.

Can I have a link to the limits and that?

As far as I can see, you would need a gross income under 41000 for a full maintenance grant?

And depending on your family conditions, total income under €66,700 may qualify you for some form of grant. p36 of the pdf document is the one that actually says about what you'd receive for the various income amounts. p45 states that income is measured by the gross income for the previous year(3rd box from bottom)

Which PDF?

Argh. I know none of the sraith pictures. Need to know them all by friday (mock oral). Plus still need to learn general conversation.
I left it all to the last minute cause Irish is my worst subject and I won't be counting it for my points but I'm still stressed about it.
UGHGHGHG.
Tips anyone?.

P.s how long does it take any of you to learn a sraith pic cause it can take me up to 40 mins :o:o

The one in Jade's citizen information link titled Student Grant Scheme 2012. Numbers may change marginally for us, but it'll offer a good idea of figures for anyone curious.

I mightn't be the best person for tips on the Sr.P., as I only got 60/80 myself in it in my mock, but I didn't learn them one by one. You can learn them in groups, with a few phrases for each grouping which you can then carry across them.

For example, there are about 3 relating to competitions (Bua sa Seo Taluin, Toghadh Scoláire, Comórtas Cócaireachta). For these, very similar phrases can cover 2-3 pictures in each where they are announced as the winners and presented with a check/trophy. Meetings with teachers are other ones that can be repeated. On the day, you'll only have to say one S.P. so it doesn't matter if you are saying the same thing in a couple of them.

Rather than learning each one as an individual, try and see how you can repeat stuff across the twenty. Be warned though, there are still some with no overlap (Fadhbanna Saoire, the one I got and hadn't looked at since 5th year, springs to mind :rolleyes:) so still be aware of the others. Best of luck.

Same, I won't be counting Irish for points but I still need to pass it for the course I'm doing... got 78% in the pre (OL) and the oral wasn't included in that... so it'll probably drag me way down I just gotta keep going over the sraith pics and reading the poems.... and completely bluff the general conversation :rolleyes:
