    Institute is the most obvious choice; there are other places like Foxrock Institute too.

    Most of the VEC schools have night time Leaving Certificate courses in the main subjects. They are very reasonably priced.

    could you not just buy a few french book and sit at home and "study" the course?
    its really not that hard.. 90 word pieces is the most difficult..

    i dont see why, for french, you'd be bothered going somewhere for a year..
    get a few grinds for a few months before the exam and you'd be flying i'd say, assumign youve done some work for the rest of the year..


    but thats just my ignorant thoughts..!



    bon chance!
    bonne chance?
    meh...


    ádh mór leat... :D

    Rockerette, Cos I havent done French in 3 years now so gettin some books or grinds wouldnt be of much use without proper guidence. I wanna make sure I got what i want so a course should help. I have a friend in 4th year French now and I can get some grinds of her nearing the exams too

    Kwekubo, Thanks for the links! :D
