Maths: OL ugh...better of passed that or im gonna kill my grinds teacher. 40euro a week all year when couldnt afford it

Irish :OL i think i passed

History: HL Fecking disaster! All the work I put in .....

French: HL - lets just say, my teacher is 30years in the game and was snapping over it

Art - HL - grand just wished i studied a bit more for Art H

Biology - HL - got a B in the pre, A every other test- ill be lucky to pass it :mad:


It was defo clear from the phrasing etc they were filtering people out. What a joke. I might have to repeat :mad::mad::mad::mad: all the work i put in......so upset!

I agreee with that history.. it was ridiculous, I studied so much and in the end went into overload.
Hard work feels like **** when ye think of having to repeat dosnt it

Maths was very easy this year, compared with last year. Maybe it's because I'm studying maths full time now, but other friends who did HL last year agree with me. (Non-maths-student types)

The Leaving Cert was a friggin joke this year

My friend is going to a grind school for 6th Year. She is unsure whether to do Biology or Geography. She did Geog in 5th year but learned very little. She is a hard worker and wants to get a good grade. She heard that it is hard to get an A in Geog so that is why she is seriously considering switching to Biology. Not sure if this is true. Is it? She does Home Ec which has quite a good overlap with Biology. What would you advise? Is Biology do-able in a year? Is there a practical which you hand up in advance like Geog? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
