    Hi everybody,

    I have a query which I hope someone may be able to assist me with. I have a (ahem) friend who did the pass irish oral examination and probably did enough to pass.. maybe. Anyway he has now decided for an easy life and so he will pass his exam he now wants to do foundation. Is this possible?

    cheers

    Im sure it is, just take the foundation paper when you go into the exam center.. Though pass is just as easy as foundation..

    Assuming you mean oral, then he didn't do pass oral. The oral exam is independant of level, they only take that into account later when they're adding up marks.

    certain collges will not accept foundation level as haing irish. So be sure of where you stand before doing anything.

    not 100% sure but not far off it but i think that ur friend cant go down, if he did the normal oral i think that means he cant go down to foundation, which is really stupid but sure its the irish way, ar*e-ways
