Yea I don't want to deal with that too. If I do bad and someone comes up to me telling me how great they done. They will die!!!
Best response i've heard!:D I can imagine everyone going in early for their results and being big queues for them. Then all of a sudden everyone is gone to look at their results in private. I'm waiting till i get home! I planned on driving but i might be too nervous

Just as a thought, every year there are students who pull out the script viewing form instead of their results - in the panic, they do not realise what they are looking at, get all excited at a load of As and then are often disappointed when they see the real results sheet.
Both sheets are A4 sized, but the results sheet has the SEC logo and a border around the page - see this picture.
Trying to find one of the script viewing form but no joy yet.
The script viewing form will have a list of the subjects taken and the level (in Irish), so it could say
Bearla A
Gaeilge A
Stair A
Tíreolaíocht A
etc. and put somoene into a right flap.
Just be careful reading the results and be doubly careful about totting up points before getting yourself upset or alternatively over excited. Mistakes can be made under pressure, so get a mate to double check your tot on points.
Remember though, it's not going to be the end of the world whatever you get. It breaks my heart to see good kids upset every year when they really have not done badly at all, but have over-estimated their own abilities and expected more than was realistic.
There is always another way or opportunity to get the course you want.
I agree!! In my school they actually tell you what points you have got. so there is no mistakes. Fingers crossed i get my points. But there is always a way... has anybody had one of those so called "results day nightmares" yet??? i had one or two but i'm confident i did all i could. And besides you can always view your scripts and appeal to make doubly sure... Good luck everyone. Hope you all get what you need.0 -

I think too much of a big deal is made out of 'the results'..sure they may seem like they are the height of importance now but nearly everyone i've spoken to has described them as an anti-climax.
One of the most ridiculous statements i've heard is that they determine what you're gonna do for the rest of your life..of course they will play a certain part in that but there is always ways around everything. Take my aunt for example, she did her leaving cert and qualified as a nurse four years later, what she believed would be her dream job. After 3 years of being a nurse, a job she hated, she went back to college and trained as a podiatrist. As if that wasn't bad enough when she hit 40 she returned to college and became a pharmacist!!:D
I suppose what i'm getting at is if you don't get the points you need on wednesday it doesn't mean you're gonna end up miserable for the rest of your life, and perhaps that 'dream course' isn't all it's cracked up to be, as they say everything happens for a reason.:)
So good luck to everyone on wednesday, i'd be lying if i said i wasn't nervous myself but you have to look on the positive side. Whatever happens will happen!:D :cool:0
