    Hey guys,I was just wondering if anyone could give me some tips for study.I got 3A's AND 7 B's in the mocks but I feel that I might not be able to emulate that for the JC :confused: I always feel like I just got lucky:whether I did so or not and I just want to be at a stage where I'm confident that I can get all A's and B's in the JC.These are my subjects:English,Irish,maths,French,geography,history,music,business,science,
    religion and CSPE-all higher level :pac:
    Thanks!

    most people go up a grade from mocks to JC, so you shouldn't worry about getting all A's and B's.. However some people go down, mostly because they get complacent, so you still need to work at those 3 A's as well as the 7b's and you should be grand - don't worry :)

    That's pretty good. My only advice would be not to take your results for granted. Just because you got an A don't reject the subject. Check your Mock Papers to see where you lost some marks and try to improve your results. Constant Revision and an extensive knowledge of the Exam Layout. Also, I'm stealing spurious's usual advice but she's dead right; ''Make sure you answer all questions being asked''. Seriously you'll do better than you think. Hand's down.

    Don't worry too much. If you have a solid study program from now 'till the JC u should do well. I'm hoping to keep my 6As and 4Bs
