'Cause I understand this does that mean I won't fail Irish?! :pac:

As predicted, I'm awake. :mad:
I can't stop thinking of actually getting the very highest points I could hope for, and how exciting it would be. And that's bad because the inevitable disappointment that tomorrow will bring can now only become more and more exaggerated

Just a thought. As well as my muffin theory, does anyone think that my love for one direction will actually get me 1 D? One direction = 1D in short. And also I have an insane love for Demi Lovato. Like a LOVE.

Maybe, I'm just going crazy.....

They say that every year, the failure rate for any subject never actually changes much.

Best of luck everyone!

I hope you all get what you hoped for.It's not really a luck thing you've been in secondary school for 5/6 years this stuff sinks in,you'll be grand.

And there is more than one way to get where you want in a job,it's not uncommon now for people to reapply or resit the lc,so don't stress over it and enjoy the night out

Just after getting my results and although I am happy points wise I'm pretty disappointed with my Maths (B2) and Business (B3).. They're not bad grades like but I was expecting better tbh.

I've noticed that too! I've only spoken to like two or three people who've been delighted, whereas everyone else is satisfied at most! The yaaaaaaaaaa thread should have plenty of nice stories by the end of the day :P

Congratulations to everybody who got satisfactory results so long as it was less than what I got.

For the rest of you, it's not the end of the world/burn in hell.

My brother completely forgot about the results and is currently having breakfast, planning on heading in soon enough. :pac:

And eh, huzzah / chin up / ah well to everyone else.

jumpguy

Got 575, with the HPAT that's a total score of 728...which will hopefully get me in. Hopefully! Got a lovely unexpected A1 in English. Turns out bythewoods was right.

Aoibheann

AWESOME! Delighted for you, jumpguy, I'll keep everything crossed for you 'til Monday.

Such amazing apathy, that is great.

Well done to everyone. I hope you get all your courses. You'll make a great doctor, jumpguy, and a great nurse, soccy. By the way, what ever happened to podiatry, soccy? :P (I really hope I am right and not getting you confused with someone else. )

Cakes.

Well done everybody!

:P

Reading everyone's results makes me so happy. It's also oddly motivational, LC 2K13 ftw.

Also, my ledge of a cousin got 535, which is more than enough for his course in UL (make bffs with him soccy). I'm so happy for him. Except now he's at the top of the cousin championship of LC points, MUST. BEAT. HIM. But I'm delighted etc. Happy days.

Also.. Well done peeps Also YAY JUMPEY! That's like amazeballs and you totes deserve it mahn.

I dunno whether to accept an arts degree offer if I get it, or to look on the vacant places list and see if anything I like is there? >_< So many decisions!! Like is there any way to see previous vacant places lists?

It changes kinda radically every year. In the past it has been mathsy courses that tended not to fill up.

Cakes.

Sorry to interrupt the celebrations etc.. :P

But see Medicine in TDC, do you need two science subjects or one and an above C in OL Maths?
