Study leave was always wild where I used to live. Exams would take place over 2 months, so when you got study leave you just got 2 months off school basically, but having to come in 7 or 8 times for an hour to sit your exams. When I sat my Standard Grade's, I had 6 of my 8 exams in the first week, and then my last 2 exams on the 2nd week so I didn't even really have time to study during study leave. On the upside, I got 6 and a half weeks or so of study leave even though I had no exams left lol, so I just went to the beach and parties most of the time. Most people used their study leave to go to the beach anyway though.

My secondary school didn't have study leave, didn't really bother me.
