    Right heres my situation.

    I need atleast 4 65%'s in higher((for the 70 points each)),1 70%((for the 75))and my two pass subjects should get me atleast 5 points for 40%.

    So far I've got somwhere in the 50's for ag.sci,History and Eco.
    I've got somwhere in the 30s for maths,Irish and Bio.Havent got English back yet.

    I've done litrally the most minimalist amount of study.I studied history for the first time two days before the exam and had to leave out one question as of time and Ag sci I didnt study for anywhere near the exam.Also they all took place over 1 week except Irish,The English paper where you dont need to study for and eco.

    Anyway what I'm getting at is,d'ye think I should be able to get the minimum I want if I work my arse off the week we get back from our hols.

    I dont have a forgein language holding me down anymore(dropped it last week).I have revision course during easter holidays and I have atleast 24 hours of school study with after school and ruing school study((Not including weekend study Im going to take up and fridays :P ))

    Tbh I think I will but I'd like to hear from people that have been in my situation as a little confidence boost.Hoping to do one of two courses in UL which last year were 340 and 350 so hopfully I should get the points for the one that was 340 last year by aiming for 20-25 points more :)

    I ended up with 430 and the course that I want was 440 last year so i'm happy :) Hoping the points I need don't sky rocket and that i'll do well enough to still get in if they do.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,140 ✭✭✭ciano1


    Got 370
    Need at least 325
    Want 400 to be safe!


  • Registered Users Posts: 211 ✭✭Stryderman


    Got 320 out of 4 subjects so far, well 380 if i include pass maths but i'm hoping i'll get more than 60 points in both of my tests still to come (both HL). I'm planning on doing Law and Accounting in UL, it was 455 last year but i'll need 500 to be safe i think

    Of course it is.

    Got 490, so pleased with myself:D

    need 520, but should be able to reach that if I can bring my maths up for B1... maybe even an A2, I got a C3 in the mocks, and my maths teacher says people can jump up about 20-25%
    really cant wait to see how the real thing goes

    Got 490 and need 550+, probably 570+ really - apparently very achievable, or so I'm told!


  • Registered Users Posts: 829 ✭✭✭zam


    I know someone who went up by 400 points.

    There is hope for us all. :P
