    Well, you should probably work out what kind of points you need for your first choice, and decide based on that.

    Maybe you should start cramming on the use of apostrophes first :rolleyes:

    Why would you drop back to pass in a subject that you got a C in honours at mocks? Given that you've an extra 3 months of potential learning between the mocks and the LC. You're several grades off failing, so it isn't like you were borderline for your mocks. And remember, you already have some of your result waiting for you from the oral.

    Would you be ok for points if you do French at pass level?

    Make sure you have all requirements covered in terms of literature, short stories, poems for the Ordinary Level syllabus if you are considering switching.

    The Ordinary Level is not just a simpler version of the Higher paper. Sometimes entire sections are different.

    Don't drop to pass, just cram. You'll be fine.

    If you were to drop, drop Irish for the simple reason that you've more time to cram French.
