No i would rather throw the examiners off the cliff.

Personally I'd much rather be off 1 than 10.
You'd be fairly sure of med the next year with repeating whatever !

I bet someone here is gonna get 100th percentile. Everyone seems really intelligent. :eek:

As long as I get 190, I will be delighted. 180+ I'll be happy. <180 .. I will be in a very dark place :pac:

Hahaha same, but I am most likely GOING to get under 180!!!!

I'm still quite excited for these results, fellows. Although I've noticed that the closer they get, the further away they feel.

woopah92

I promise, if I get in the 100th percentile, I'll tell all you guys here

When Tuesday comes, I will be sooo Happy!
Judging by the Leaving Cert so far, regrettably it looks as though i'll be repeating.... It's OK though, I didn't do T.Y so really this is like my fifth year haha And I don't think any 5th year is working as hard as this!

200+ ?! im trying to break the 50 mark at this rate :L dont think i'll be getting into med this year but im happy to settle for something else and maybe do a post-grad. think i might take a year out...although im already 19 so im old enough but sure theres lots of time ahead

If you take the "HPAT" out of "Hyperventilate" and change 2 letters you get "Percentile"
Sums up my situation accurately enough at least :rolleyes:

Legion.

Not sure if I regret not going down this route or not but hey ho, such is life Good luck to all of you with your results.

But the exam was atrocious.

Especially section A

Acciaccatura

I realised my section 3 circles were all out by one answer (i.e. I'd skipped one without realising) with only 10 mins left to go. Still not sure if I rectified it, but I was guessing mostly anyway, you don't get much worse than that :pac:

The little bubble circles you had to pencil in? That happened to me for two of the sections. But I spotted it early and fixed it. It's so annoying :S

I was the simpleton who didnt get all of section two done. Yep, I know :cool:

Haha I found section 2 by far the easiest, I can read people like a book
I didn't finish section 3 though, that was my biggest downfall

weirdspider

I glanced around like 10 minutes before a section ended and loads of people were just sitting around looking like they were finished... I was like HOW!!!

It was always my best section too! Did brilliantly on them before the actual exam, just my luck!

I'm hoping for a high score in S1, a decent one in S3... S2 has the potential to be utterly disastrous though. A score less than 30 wouldn't remotely surprise me.. I just had no idea what one to choose so ended up guessing between most.

I'm not the only one :') ... I was so disappointed I just got a mental block on S3 even though it was my best and favourite But I thought S1 was lovely and that S2 was good too, so I'm hoping to god S3 doesn't drag me into the dark, but very realistic prospect of <180

The passages in section 2 were waaaaaay longer than other years and it really caught me out
Yep. I can't see a happy Monday ahead....

Yeah they were quite long actually, nearly caught for time... I'm totes scared for Monday

weirdspider

Well statistically speaking those in the 85th+ percentile will get med so if there are 100 people who have used/browsed this forum then about 15 will get med....hmm thats quite bad actually. Well those who get it deserve it, that HPAT is far from an easy test!

Slow Show

I'm hoping for relatively high in S1 and S2 but S3 is likely to be a shambles tbh.
