The Dublin School of Grinds has decided to run FREE Revision Courses from 2nd – 13th January. Students can avail of 6 hours of tuition by attending up to three courses, totally free of charge.

Students who attend these courses will receive:
> Multiple booklets of our H1 study notes.
> Six hours of expert tuition with Ireland’s leading teachers.
> Past and probable exam questions that are likely to appear in this year’s State Examinations.

Our sole purpose is to maximise students’ CAO points, so with only five months left until the exams, don’t miss out on your chance to maximise grades. Join the hundreds of students already ensuring that they get enough points for their dream college course.

Note 1: Students who attended a subject for a previous Free Course are unable to sign up to a Free Revision Course in that particular subject. However, students can attend any other 3 subjects.

Note 2: As well as our 2nd Year Maths Revision Course, which is specially designed for 2nd Year students, our 3rd Year Revision Courses are also suitable for 2nd Year students to attend.

Note 3: These courses will book out, so early booking is crucial.
