Well, how did we all do in the Mocks??

leaveiton

Finally got the last of mine today

Biology - A1
English - A2
Music - B2
Chemistry - B3
German - B3
Irish - C1
Maths - E (39%! )

All HL, so 490 points altogether. Delighted with biology, and also delighted with English because I've never done that well in an English exam before. Bit annoyed though because now I think I'm capable of A standard in the real thing :P Disappointed with chemistry, I'd like to get a higher B or even an A, I could do a bit better in Irish, and I'm sickened over maths. My course last year was 475 so I'm aiming for a little over 500 as it's a science course and I'm afraid of the points going up quite high due to demand and the extra 25 points for maths.

Well, I did ok, got exactly what i need for my first choice overall, however, I know I can do better so I wasnt happy with the 430 i got. Realistically, I want to be at the 480 mark, I think I'd be assured of my course then.

B3 in English (was a drop from my usual B1)
B3 in French (again, a drop from my B1)
C2 in Home Ec (Again, a drop from B1/2)
C2 in Irish (my usual so wasnt shocked)
B2 in Geography (more or less my standard, was shocked as I f**ked up that one)
C1 in art (totally messed up my paper, looking to get a B1 if possible in the real thing)

oh and in OL maths I got a B2.

In any case, I know now that with real effort I can do better :rolleyes:

snoreborewhore

English (H) - 74% overall. Sat my Paper 1 back in November and I bombed it (was dumped the night before so I'll blame it on that ) But my A2 in paper 2 brought it up! Hoping for the A in June!

Irish (H) - 61%. Pretty bummed ngl. Answered the question in Paper 1 incorrectly (wrote it as a speech rather than a debate...woops) Want to get a B!

French (H) - 79% Delighted. One of the highest in my class because the papers were marked hard, want either a high B or A!

History (H) - 69%. Ugh 1% off a B! I'm fine with that though, my teacher marks so passive aggressively it's ridiculous. He says I'm capable of a B or even an A though so fingers crossed!

Biology (H) - 78% Pretty happy! Either a B1 or B2 is all I'm hoping for!

Art (H) - 75% Delighted! I'm not the best at practical art, but my 81% in my Art History brought my grade up!

Maths (O) - 70%. Haha, pretty pathetic considering I've been getting A's all year! Oh well, hardly gonna count the points anyways!

450 points altogether and hoping for around 500! Hopefully I'll get it...

All back!  Kind of disappointed, mainly with Irish and DCG.

Gaeilge:  C1  (Excluding the 50% for the oral and aural) - very disappointed, I've gotten B1s and B2s in Irish for the last 3 years, and I'm hoping for an A1 in the Leaving.  [2011:  B2]

English: C2 - pretty poor. After last year I'll have to get an A2 to avoid disappointment.  :o [2011:  B1]

Maths:  C3 - delighted!  :D  Only took up higher level this year and was expecting to scrape a pass at best.  [2011:  B1 (OL)]

Français;  A2  (Excluding the 25% oral) - satisfied with this one, it needs to improve by June though.  Would've been disappointed with any lower.  :P  [2011:  B2]

DCG:  D3  :(  (Excluding the 40% project) - I really need to improve this, have to get at least a B on the drawing paper to be happy in August.  [2011:  C2]

Phys/Chem:  D2 - I could've worked hard and gotten a B, but I didn't put the effort in, so I'm happy enough with this (only took the subject up 6 months ago). Hoping for an A1 here too provided I seriously knuckle down!  [2011:  X]

405 in total.  Aiming to go up...  About 160 points?

Go on. You can do it. Actually, you know what? You can do better. I believe in you. Go out, show the world the real you, the genius that lies underneath that skin.

Yay! Y'know what? I think I'll go for at least a 220 point increase now. 'Twould be shameful not to.

B3 - Accounting (absolutely delighted considering I didn't answer 25% of the paper )

B2 - English (Pretty happy as my short story was only 2 pages and was utter rubbish. Going to bump this up to an A)

B1 - French (Delighted! Listening (66%) brought me down from an A)

B1 - Maths (So surprised at this! Especially considering I was FAILING last year! Just goes to show what a bit of hard work can do!)

B1 - History (I really got lucky on what came up, one different essay and i would have dropped a grade and a half)

A2 - Business (Timing threw me off on A, spent 40 minutes on the short questions alone!)

Haven't got Irish back, but I'm planning on dropping soon enough.

525 in the mocks Honestly, I never though I was going to do THIS well and see no reason now why I couldn't get all As in the real thing!

Orange juice

English - B1, average, hope to get maybe an A2 in the real thing.

Irish - B3, Disappointed, hope to get an B1/A2

Maths (H) - B1, Delighted! Maybe push it up to an A2?

Chemistry - A2, as expected

Biology - A2 Surprised!! :O I love biology but I thought the paper went badly

Music - B3, terrible result although I didn't revise well enough and the result doesn't include a practical!

French - C2, Pathetic... hoped to get much higher since it's one of my favourite subjects!


All higher level subjects so that's a total of 530!! Delighted, but hope I can manage 570/580? I'm worried I wont be able 'cause I did work really hard for my mocks!!

David1994

Chem 89% - A2
Eng 63% - C2 <-- Supposed to be using that for points

OL

Maths I gotta D1 - I just need to pass anyway and to quote boards.ie "I never opened a book" :rolleyes:

English is my weakest anyway, and I still have 2 honours to come back and 1 still to sit

lcstress2012

I got my results back ages ago but just didn't have the time to post them here. I need 380 points so aiming for 400 as I want to study music in colege when finished school.

Music HL(my best) B2
Irish HL B3
History OL(worst, boring) D3
French OL C3
Biology OL (considering doing HL for points TERRIBLE at this!) D3
Maths(my worst ever!) E
English OL C2

So what does this add up to? Not 400
Can someone use my Grades (6 best) and write the grade that would get my 400 points in these subjects???

Really struggling with studying and really getting worried for the leaving Want to get into college and not have to repeat.

Your top 6 get you 215 points.

Sample grades needed for 400 points are:
Music HL B1
Irish HL B2
Biology OL A1
History OL A1
French OL A1
English OL A1

I didn't include maths because you didn't state HL or OL.

English HL - C1. I felt the teacher marked it really hard so I'm gonna go find out what's what
Economics HL - B2. Ouch, was hoping for an A2. Dropped easy marks here and there, plus I got my Canons of Taxation all wrong. Oh well, that's what the mocks are for.
Maths OL - A2. Not planning on using this for points or anything, so very happy with it
LCVP - 84% - Distinction. Good result.

So far, not very pleased with English and Economics. Economics can be easily improved once I tidy up a few bits and pieces. English is just a case of learning the material for Paper 2 over and over. My Paper 1 skills are adequate enough. Reading of course is vital.

All higher:
English - 83% - B1/85 points
Irish - 83% - B1/85 points
Maths - 58% - C3/85 points
French - 90% - A1/100 points
Geography - 79% - B2/80 points
Business - 74% - B3/75 points
History - 80% - B1/85 points
Total: 520 points (:

Notice the THREE B1's and basically a fourth in geography. I just cant get A's lol.
Maths was marked really weirdly (the marking scheme was crazily lenient), and my two Irish comprehension scores were 37/40 and 14/40 ffs...I disagree with how it was marked, 0's all over the place :rolleyes: But not gonna complain with a B1 :P

I admit I knew what was on the history exam, but it was exactly what I had essays on and was planning to study, and I had choice too so I kinda trust it Everything else was fair game though :P

I'm absolutely chuffed But after the maths thing I'm torn between H and O which would probably make a large difference in my points since I'm dreading history/business going wrong (genuinely thought I got a D in the business mock and I just cant remember history very well). But hey, maybe I'll be able to recreate this in June, I'd be so happy!

Togepi

Stick with higher Maths Patchy! You're basically guaranteeing yourself at least 85 points from it, worst case scenario.

Canard

Hmmmm I suppose you're right :P Its so hard but I think I'll stick with it

Whatsisname

Haven't got all mine back yet, but the ones I did don't matter, I failed Maths and thats pass Maths by the way. Kinda ridiculous seeing people claim to get 400-500 points ''without study'', is it still the cool thing to say you don't study? Obviously so.

Chavways

Did my accounting pre on the 7th of February and still waiting for it.I'm pretty sure its lots at this stage seeing as I got the rest of my results 2 weeks ago

Using 3's instead of e's and 0's instead of o's can be quite detrimental though :pac:

The text in bold wasn't a spelling mistake though, it was a malapropism.

History-98%/ 100 Points
Accounting- 88% 90 points
Physics- 81% 85 points
Maths- 77% 105 points
Spanish- 78% 80 points
Applied Maths 70% 75 points
English- 64% 65 points
Irish (OL) 88% 50 points
TOTAL: 535

I'm really happy with most of my results, especially history. Hopefully I can improve by one grade in every subject, and hopefully more in English which I was really disappointed in as I usually get A2s and B1s. My course was 555* last year and who knows how much it will increase by due to HL Maths, so a lot or work still required.

B1 - (82%) - English

Surprised as heck, but now dreading the LC incase I go down.

No pressure, huh?

Fantastic results, well done!
As a matter of interest, what did you drop 3% in Maths for? You are obviously good at Maths, was it a silly error, a part left out?

Just wondering what are your study methods? More specifically for french and applied maths? Congrats by the way brilliant results!!
