    No dispraxia and dilexia can be really serious in some cases. i agree about some of them being an excuse but ther are people who genuilny cant help it! My cousin has really bad dispraxia and cant do home ec for her jc because of it!

    I wasn't saying they're not, I have dyspraxia to a relatively serious extent; doesn't mean as Halla claims that I'm of lower intelligence. The problem is that in Ireland there are some educational psychologists who are willing to slap the dyslexia label on any kid who can't spell properly at the age of 8...

    LOL,this question is so simple to answer.

    The reason why people pick to do the higher level is because it reflects on you in the future,like i'll give you an example: if i was a employing somebody to work for an airline to fly a plane (and as you know you need good maths to be a pilot so anyway) i interview two people but there is only one place and i ask person No.1 what did you get in your JC maths? and he says A in foundation level and i ask person No.2 and he tells me that he got a C in higher level,straight away i will give the job to person No.2 because he would be better as he did better in his tests even thought he go a C.

    I have my doubts that your jc results will ever be looked at for any career choice :pac:
    And to answer your question ; Higher level in some subjects is mandatory to get certain courses in college. Each honours subject is worth 100 points in lc, 60 in OL and 20 in Foundation. Doing foundation in everything is useless and ordinary maths(Think english and irish follow same rule) is required for most colleges. Doing honours is not to look "smarter"!
    CSPE is exceptionally easy from what I recall and fairly useful at times for understanding even the current economic climate. It doesn't need much study. Get a revision book if your having that much trouble and watch the news etc..
    To the poster who said that Dyspraxia and Dyslexia are false conditions; you're entirely misinformed. Theres plenty of research that will prove you wrong. Though I would agree that there probably is alot of people that claim to have it but don't.

    Dyslexia is just an excuse for people of lower intelligence. Like you.


    Oh, come on. You've just severely devalued your input into this discussion.

    That aside, OP's question is a bit silly. There's merit in challenging yourself, for many reasons.

    Too bad you left your bedroom window open last night because he touched you......

    I see an awkward conversation between you both tomorrow followed by some *ahem* *quality time* behind a tree.


    P.s. If you need a good excuse just say your studying for CSPE
