The Leaving Certificate begins for tens of thousands of students on Wednesday.
We all have memories - or the occasional nightmare - about exam time and how it impacted our lives.
We have been asking our newsroom colleagues to look back on their Leaving Cert.
Today it's the turn of our Washington Correspondent Jackie Fox, who celebrated her 18th birthday the day after her final exam.
Watch the video to see Jackie look back at her Leaving Cert and share advice to students about to sit their exams.
You can see more of the series here including David McCullagh, Sharon Tobin and Brian O'Donovan.
