I don't go to a posh school...those grades are all honours though.

I don't go to a posh school, some people I know got 9/10As couple years back though...

Just defending the dishonour of kipschools all over ireland!

Rozabeez

our schools not exactly a kip, well, yes, yes it is....damn crazy old home-ec teachers!

PurpleFistMixer

It is written in the bathroom and on the bottom of a chair, and probably many other places in my school that "This School is a Kip" so it must be true.

Everything you read in random places is true.

The best results in our school this yers(of what I know0 was 2 A's(ordinary level) and 8Bs(Higher level) and that was form one guy! :eek:

Corruptedmorals

Indeed it is. Especially chairs. Someone wrote Broken Hill Rule on a chair. (broken Hill are an uber-crap band in my area) and the next day it was changed to Broken Hillers drule.

You'd only get that if you understood the hillers/farenders thing in the Leixlip area....

Corruptedmorals

Im not saying my results in case I sound big-headed, but I do think that kipschools (public schools for those of you who don't have the displeasure of knowing) cant be all that bad if the highest class in last years 3rd year (my year) got 57 As from the top 7 people.

Don't the Irish speaking schools always do really well in all those evil league table things? They're not fee paying.

Raphael

Yeah, but they can get the "answer through irish" bonus......bastards

PurpleFistMixer

Actually, what that is is they get 10% of the points they didn't get, so it helps the weaker students and less so the stronger. More of an averaging thing than an actual... bettering thing.

Well at least that's what someone told me... who goes to one of those schools.

Raphael

Still an increase in marks

PurpleFistMixer

A slight one, true... but then again.. it IS in Irish, so it's harder. Kinda evens it out?

Raphael

Not if you speak irish. People in the gaeltacht for instance, they'll all be fluent

PurpleFistMixer

Ah yes but I'm thinking of Coláiste íosagáin and the other one, which are in Dublin.

My lil bro got 3 As and 6 Bs. The swat! He's still not happy with his results though. Dunno why? He told me he could have done alot better if he hadnt had a cold at the time and if he hadnt sprained his right thumb.

A girl in the year above me got something like 9 A's and a B! Her mum's my maths teacher though, and her dad is another maths teacher in the school. It'd be great if she failed maths! I wonder would her parents disown her?

Imagine how embarrassing that would be for her!

Why would it be great if she failed maths? Just because she has two parents who are maths teachers doesn't mean she doesn't deserve it... unless the mother is a bitch?

Is it true that there will be league tables for the junior cert published? Btw I have a friend who got 11 As and a B!! I think he is also in a public school. I was told by my school principal that a result like that would be in the top 5 results nationwide this year
