    What's a good way to get all A's on your junior cert? Like any studying tips?

    Start studying in advance, don't leave everything until the night before. Make out a study timetable, it's great if you find it hard to organize yourself and it also allows you to keep track of study.

    Attend school every day.
    Listen properly in class.
    Do every bit of homework like it was an exam question.
    Ask questions if you do not understand something.

    Consistency.

    Steadily studying and working from maybe October onwards, but take a break at Christmas, around Valentines, and maybe at Easter...don't burn yourself out. Don't do only insane waves of cramming before the mocks and the real thing and nothing else.

    As well as consistent studying, a study plan is essential. Decide how much time you want to spend studying each subject (eg 5 half-hour blocks for English, 4 for Irish etc) and make out a timetable based on that.

    You can do this weeks in advance or at the beginning of every week, but decide what you need to cover in each subject per week. For example, in Maths you could dedicate one whole week to sets and revise the chapter in your Maths book and then test yourself using your exam papers.

    Preparation is key to doing well and (hopefully) a study plan should help you spend your time studying productively! :)

    I didn't study, but I actually did the work.
    So my tip is actually do the work.
    Because most people don't actually do the work.

    If it follows the same pattern as previous years the last exams will be on the 23rd, though most people will be finished before that.
