    I was offered a mature student place for a degree but I have to achieve a HC3 in honours maths, is it too late to register for the exam?

    i believe it is too late to register for the leaving this year as an external student. the details are on www.examinations.ie

    do you specifically need a HC3 in the leaving cert or will an equivalent standard do? For example last year, some of the colleges ran mathematics exams in august after the leaving results came out which were higher leaving cert standard. These were for students who had got the points for courses but had not got say a HC3 in maths. Would your college accept this exam? I suppose it's too late to register for A-level maths?

    Ring Athlone tomorrow morning and see.

    Phone: (0906)442702, (0906)6442703, (0906)6442706

    The website says:
    Applications will not be accepted from 14th February 2009 other than in very exceptional circumstances and on payment of a late fee of €49.00 per subject in addition to the normal fee.
    Entries for subjects with a practical, oral or project component will not be accepted at this stage.

    They still might take you.
