HPAT Results & Repeating

At 2.18 am this morning I got one of the most important emails of my life. I wasn’t awake for it-I was going to get up at 5am to start monitoring it but I figured results aren’t going to change, no matter how early I get them so I set no alarm. Throughout the Leaving [...]

Well everyone! I know it’s been ages for my last post. Apologies. School is just pretty insane at the moment…. Some mock papers also took much longer to get back than others and I wanted to blog about them all as a big, miserable mess. I hopped on over to the Mister X’s Journal to [...]

Fame, Mocks and Careers!

I had a lovely little blog prepared detailing the whole load of nothing I did over the midterm but then life kept getting in the way of completing it and getting it posted. I sorry. The life thing that got in the way was an experience that left me in a very confused state. There is [...]

What a wake-up call the past 2 weeks have been. As we really get going with orals and projects, I have to say that I’m pretty worried about what I might see in my envelope in August. It seems like there isn’t enough time left to cover everything, at least not enough to secure the [...]

Revision Seminars, Pres, HPAT….Social Life??

Sorry for taking this long to post but my parental units felt the need to withdraw my internet privileges as they thought it was ‘interfering’ with my study. All i can say to that is ‘WT fuck??’, but thankfully The broadband modem and I are now happily reacquainted = D soo..anybody else fall victim to [...]

3 Weeks

Yup, they’re just around the corner. The Mocks, Pres, Hell, whatever you call them. I don’t know about anyone else but I can safely say for myself I’m not ready. Not even in the slightest. I’m pretty sure that with the sum of my knowledge so far I could scrape a pass in most subjects. [...]

Who’d like to hear a story about a bridge?

If anyone out there picked up that the title is a joke from family guy,then i salute you and welcome to my first blog. I’ll try and keep this intro as short as possible,since if anyone reading this is anything like me then they’ll take one look at a long page of typing,label the person [...]

The Times, They Are A Changin'

Today was quite possibly one of the most productive days of my Christmas holidays when it comes to the Leaving Cert. Oh yes, there were sweat, blood and tears and I didn’t open a single book, copy or folder. I did it,  I took the plunge and hauled my ass over to the CAO website [...]

HPAT Results and Dashed Dreams.

Today, June 22nd, is a day almost every Medicine hopeful had marked off in their calendars as The Most Important Day Ever. I say almost every Med-Head, because I rang a friend of mine this morning, about 3 hours after I’d looked at my own results, to see how he’d fared, and he didn’t even [...]
