    590 in total, cao's gone out the window failed irish,gutted, no UNI will even take me now here???

    I don't know if this applies in your case but I'll mention it just in case. There's a compensatory mechanism for someone who gets an E in Higher level where the matric requirement is not above an OD3. Don't know if this applies to Irish

    535! Dono wether to be happy or not, as I feel I put more effort in then that :\ Defo appealing English business and Ag science.

    My first choice is 200 and I end up getting 420!! I never thought I'd get that much! Got an A2 in Ag so Dad thinks I'm going to take over the farm :P

    Anyone else feel that History was marked very harshly??

    Yes, taking into consideration that my teacher said that my project is of top standard. Perhaps I didn't do great, but I definitely expected better than C1.

    Had that happen the year I did it. Everyone thought they were down, a few applied for rechecks. I didn't, but still got a letter a few weeks later with new and improved results. If the marks ARE very low for your whole class, they may automatically recheck the whole class. No harm viewing the paper

    I got an A in History that I wasn't expecting, so I personally felt the marking was easy if anything- hadn't even looked over the Apprentice Boys!

    I got enough points for my first choice, but I am absolutely DISGUSTED with myself about Art and English. I got B1s, but I really wanted As and stupidly assumed I'd get them. Lesson learned: just because you're good at a subject or find it easy *does not* mean you don't have to put in any effort. ARGH.

    I think I'll be getting mine rechecked. Got a B2 but I thought I would definitely get an A.

    guys just wanted to remind you (sorry mods if this is off topic), recheck your points if you haven't already!!

    I just did and went up 5 points, was convinced after calculating them 3 times at the school but after the excitement had worn off, I realised I had misread one grade


  • Registered Users Posts: 251 ✭✭brian93


    Absolutely thrilled! Got 555, which is definately the coolest number to get! :D

    Irish - A1 (won't be kicked out of the family now!)
    Geography - A1
    Biology - A2
    German - A2
    Music - A2
    English - B1 (was shocked. Didn't get a B in English since my JC mocks, my teacher told me I would get a C1 at best, a B1 is just crazy!)
    Maths - B1
    Chemistry - C2

    All Higher. Needed 470, off to the beach now with a few cans to celebrate!

  • Registered Users Posts: 13,264 ✭✭✭✭Fireball07


    I got 535, which I'm reasonably happy with.

    English- A1 (Delighted! :D)
    Irish- B1 (I really thought I'd get an A here...slightly disappointing tbh)
    Maths- B3 (Fair enough)
    French- B1 (Again thought I'd get an A, oral possibly brought me down)
    Physics- C2 (Worst subject and didn't study much, fair enough)
    History- A2 (I thought this was a bad paper, extremely happy with this!)
    Accounting- A1 (Hardly anything balanced, out by almost 100,000 in one, very happy because I had been expecting an A1 and then was very disappointed)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭Gumbi


    All Higher Level:

    Irish A1 (expected this, thankful I got it in the end)
    English A2 (unexpected, might have been marked easily this year, very happy with it)
    Engineering B1 (thought I'd scrape an A2, my day test and theory were superb, I had to get my act together after an atrocious project which involved no effort at all)
    Maths and French B3 (Expected results, wanted maybe slightly higher in both but can't complain really)
    Physics C1 (expected, would've liked a B, messed up on the day)

    Oh, and a C2 in Construction. Explanation: An absolutely atrocious project. It was a royal disgrace. My day test was reasonable, but not great. I got my act together a bit for the theory and I'd say I did well in that. I thought it'd bring me up a bit, but obviously not.

    Overall verdict: quite happy, considering the effort put in, would've liked 500 points, though, and the Cs are like blemishes ;) I only need 300, and with UL bonus points, I've plenty.

    Got 515....happy enough, I'll definately get my course....a bit disppointed with some though:pac:

    Irish B2 (:eek: I was honestly expecting a C:confused:)
    English B1 (DELIGHTED because i ddnt answer the comparative or unseen on paper 2 :D!!!
    Maths C1 :D
    Geograpy A2 :( Definately going to view this was sure of an A1
    French B1 Thought I did better :(
    Accounting A2 Would have liked an A1 but kind messed up on the day so deserved
    Economics B1 Thought I did better...will be appealing
    Japanese B3.....AHHH so happy:D!!


    so basically i was disappointed with my 4 best subjects (Geog, Econ, French & Acc)


    Anyone think that geography and economics were marked hard?? I got he highest in my school in both and no one was happy with them:confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 91 ✭✭DaBomb

    Am I the only one who thinks Business was marked ridiculously hard?

    I was almost sure I got at least an A2 if not an A1 but I ended up getting a B2 today.
