    Just wondering what happens to your corrected junior cert exam scripts assuming you did not appeal them. Are they stored in some warehouse or are they destroyed even after 2 years??

    I presume they are shredded and recycled or something. Haha, just got me thinking, when your doing a state exam, just remember that eventually, some chinese lad is going to be wiping his arse on your A1 standard essay!

    that is correct. There's a guy in Donegal takes most of them , makes multiple photocopies of every paper and then continuously recorrects the same papers over and over again just to see if he can get to within 20% of the previous time he marked it. Most of the time he is within this range. Then for the summer he corrects the real exams....
