Calling all leaving cert students!
Your mind is probably boggled with CAO choices, exam revision and the fact that this whole school thing you’re doing right now will be over in a few months.
With the help of IT Sligo, we’ve decided to take one stress away and share with you ten things that will definitely happen when you’re doing sitting leaving cert.
So without further ado…
It will be a scorcher
It’s the time of year when Templemore turns into Tenerife and Costa del Saggart becomes an actual place in South Dublin. Leaving Cert weather is certainly a thing, so expect those few weeks to be the hottest of the year.
You’ll panic like crazy before the first exam
Then you’ll realise panic is useless and you will become a vision of zen.
You’ll drink far too many energy drinks
You do know that 14 bottles of Lucobull isn’t going to help you in anyway, right?
A student you’ve never seen before will be there
Does this guy go to your school? Who knows.
You’ll forget everything you know. Then remember it again. Then forget. Then remember again, all in the space of the first five seconds when you sit at your desk.
Panic. Calm. Panic. Calm. Panic.
The ultra confident will tell you how easy it’s going to be
Don’t worry, these people are usually of crap.
The ultra sneaky will tell you how they’ve done nothing for the exam
These people are also lying.
You’ll meet a teacher outside the exam hall
And strangely enough, they now think that you two are best mates.
You will estimate, then re-estimate, what points you’ve attained
Which in all honestly is a pointless task.
You will be fine
No matter what happens.
