    Hi I'm planning on doing the LC as an external candidate next year, where can I find out exactly what books I need to buy for each subject? Is there a list online somewhere? I couldn't find anything on examinations.ie

    thanks in advance for any help :)

    Thats what my old school are using. Wouldn't get any other book than Text and Tests with the supplement in Maths. It really is a great book.

    You need to check the ciriculum for what English plays are being examined this year. Changes for each year.

    thanks for that, one question, it says for 5th year, do I need to buy any other books that students going into 6th year would be buying?

    There is two links, two sets of booklists, one for 5th the other for 6th. You need to have a look at both e.g. 5th yeras get Text and Tests 4 and 6th years get Text and Tests 5, to do the Leaving you need both. (Granted if you are doing pass its Text & Tests 3). Same applies to most subjects. (I am only using Math books because I give grinds in them and its the only topic I know for sure about books)

    The books used in 5th year are the core of what you use in 6th year.
