Study around the clock...

    Hey, i'm just saying that working around the clock kinda helps. I dont mean getting up at 3am to study but what i do is:
    • My friend and i do study when we're on the dart to school every morning. I've learnt so much. Really, it's 20 minutes of extra work every day. It adds up!
    • If i'm in a waiting room or waiting for my friends to arrive, i crack out my phone and do a bit of an irish or french aural. I got apps of the exams (mocks.ie make them)
    • When i'm in the car I tech my mum about stuff in geography. She learns from and i learn from her.
    • On the bus i learn vocab from various learn french apps.
    • If i'm REALLY BORED i watch some french news clips, youtube videos and programmes. It's impressive how much you learn!
    • I translate an nuacht as gaelige when its on the tv or radio.
    Does anyone else have any ideas on how to do subconsious work? :o

    I think It's great you've found other ways to study. Having the ability to study without getting bored of sitting at a desk is a great one. Keep it up, especially to your Leaving Cert. It'll stick to you!

    Change your phones language to French, you can learn some cool new vocab.

    If you could get an A or B in a subject as hard as Irish, would you not be able to get an A in science, where it's mostly just learning?

    Aim high, without big dreams, we become dull and boring.

    I guess, i just really want to do well in Irish, because i used to be rubbish at it :L I do have dreams, just non as short term as next month :P :D

    You should be aiming for an A in science, in jc it's rote learning. Get yourself a "shortcuts to success" (which it really was) and spend 2 days reading it. Music, if you know your set works inside out, and know the rules for the answering phrase you should be fine! Soft A's :) Also, they're really stingy with the A's in Geography, you get crucified for one word answers -_- I got A's all year long and B in the real thing :P
