    Not to insult you but I have seen your trying to acieve in the JC, which is so good compared to mine, but how do you plan to get that result if you waste a whole good week, have already studied before hand. Like do you already have finished learning the course ?

    Well, I know what questions are coming up, and I know what to study, I also know the exam techniques on most of the papers. I have mindmaps ready on almost all topics for alot of the subjects .. so the day before the exam, just cram the mind maps ;). I used the Mocks to test a few things, I got the results I needed, so I'm postive that achieving good grades in the Junior Cert won't take alot of effort.;)

    Obviously I won't just study the predictions :eek:, you'll have to be CRAZY to do that. I'll study the whole course on all subjects .. the only way my plan will back fire is if I forget to bring the cheat cheat to the examin centre ... did I just say that;)? :o Subjects like English and Maths have types of questions that come up every year .. :p


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 88 ✭✭Dodo Bird


    I'll study the whole course on all subjects
    And how do you plan to do that in 1 week ??
    Since you said that you will not study this week apart from only English

    I have condensed most of the course on most subjects into short notes and mindmaps, it's easy if you know what to do :p.

    I know I've studied, but I can't help freaking out o.o

    For geography, should we learn both heavy and light industries? And should we know the three climates in detail? Thanks :)

    Know one industry (heavy or light) in detail, and know one climate in detail.

    Whoah, whoah, whoah. Whoah. What is this heavy/light industry you speak of? And could someone explain what we need to know for a climate?

    My Geography teacher is awful, we haven't even finished the course after spending a month on bogs, which has only ever come up once!!! Ever!!!
