Crania · 06-12-2005 10:00pm #1

Hiya lads, I'm just wondering does anyone know when the Mocks(Pre-Examination's) are starting? I think its around the 20th of February but I'm not aure. I tried to find it on the internet but I couldn't.

As far as I know the mocks are a school-organised thing so you'll not be finding them on the internet, and also, some schools may have them at different times.

It was the end of January/start of February last year for me...

lilmissprincess · 06-12-2005 10:28pm

Monday after midterm for me....and its snowed on that day the last two years...hope it does this year too...

It varies from school to school. Some schools don't even have them. Mine start Jan 31st for 2 weeks 'til the Mid-Term.

Oh right, I thought the Mocks were standardised like the Junior Cert. Thanks for the information lads. I think they are starting on the Wednesday after the Mid-Term in my school, of couse the useless teachers in my school don't know, what a surprise.

I is gonna fail Maths Christmas Test, and possibly Mocks...

marshmallow · 18-12-2005 10:55pm

Eh.. I haven't started studying. I actually really want to get into it but I'm finding time to sit down and get the books out! Mocks are in 6weeks! Studying over christmas...:(

lilmissprincess · 19-12-2005 9:22pm

6 WEEKS??????????????????????????? My life is officially over.

Piste · 20-12-2005 5:02pm

My mocks are in 5 weeks I think...

I'll be going to Bauhaus (if I get in) the saturday before my mocks which'll probably show in the results...

marshmallow · 20-12-2005 7:47pm

I'm going to be in Cork playing matches the week end before me mocks and that will probably show in my mocks too. It's the worst time to have it.

I got my timetable today and I have something everyday and some of my friends get 2 days off the way the choice subjects are arranged.

Apple Gal · 01-01-2006 12:19pm

3 weeks after mid term for me.Sooooooo scary!!!!

Oh yes I have not touched geography at all either! Every time I start I just say I know this and then give up! Everyone keeps saying how the mocks are nothing and only a practise so everyone in my school just isn't bothering at all!

PurpleFistMixer · 15-01-2006 11:34pm

I bothered more for my mocks than my JC, really. Turned out okay.*

*I am not endorsing not studying for the JC. Eh... study.

1huge1 · 18-01-2006 8:50pm

maths wont be easy at all though
business might be a problem when it comes to long questions (some years are easy some arnt)
