    Well I think you know yourself what you need to do. Get the head down and work from the word go. I repeated last year and I aimed to get all my projects done before Xmas. That was a real help come the second half of the year.

    As far as study tips, it doesnt change from 6th year. Make use of your free classes. Get homework done there , some study. Then we you get home you can relax and chill for awhile. That does wonders for you trust me.

    At the end of the day you came back to repeat because you really want a certain course, so if you work hard this year you'll certainly get your reward! I was 40 points off primary teaching the 1st year I sat the Leaving and I went up 75 points to 510 the next year because I put the effort in. Do the same and then enjoy college life :D

    I'll keep those in mind, and i'll study hard and get the points !!!

    I'm glad im repeating to get the points and then hopefully attend ucd to study science or arts.

    Use the past papers as a guide... Don't read a book from cover to cover.. use the past papers as a guide to what you need to cover from your notes/books
