    Did I hear correctly that next year, all the necessary maths formulae will be included in the new and improved log tables?? or was that just a rumour?? :confused:

    Be wonderful if the result was that 15 years down the line all the engineer type people in Ireland were complete eejits.

    If Maths was as easy as just learning off a formula I'd have aced it no bother, this won't make that much of a difference

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    That's because it's really the only country with exams that it applies to, and that it's harder exams than quite a lot of other countries (uk/us)..

    Haven't heard of this until now, but tbh, won't make much difference.

    And the science courses changed X time ago, etc etc etc, the leaving cert course is always changing, generally making it easier to get an A too, if you do the work. I remember a mate having to go through a MASSSIVE book on all science subjects for the leaving, for the old course. New course is easier, does that take from it too? Is it unfair too?
