    I'm doing TY, its optional in my school but the majority of people are doing it. I'd like to do History/Geography/Business and possibly Biology for my LC.

    That was my original plan :p! Now I've sort of decided on doing music instead of art, history, french, japanese and possibly geography or economics.

    I'd like to do four science's but it won't be possible, theres four groups of subjects and you can only pick one from each group and all the science one's are grouped together :/ So stupid because a lot of science courses require two LC Science Subjects. Anyhow I'm still doing subjects I love :)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 149 ✭✭Mary A


    im doing physics, geography, applied maths, chemistry, biology :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 390 ✭✭A97


    I'm doing Biology, Physics and Accounting. I'd like to do some others but unfortunately I can't do anything else. I might pick up Applied Maths since it's apparently not too bad for a decent Maths and Physics student.

    Incredible amount of work required for Geography for the leaving cert apparently. It was meant to have been extremely easy about 6 years ago. Then they changed the course and it's meant to have an extreme work load. So I'm glad I didn't choose it because I don't even like it either. I think you'd be happier if you knew just how tough it is lol.

    History

    I don't care if I need a science subject for college, I just hate science so much. It's officially been out of my life forever since today after that exam.

    Four sciences is risky. Even though the thought of disliking them in LC may not even cross your mind now, it is always a possibility. Then you'll be truly stuck. I think it's better to have some kind of backup, or merely a bit of variation to keep your options open. Anyway, up to you.

    My sister loved science all through her life and in the JC. Then when it came to LC, she got a D in Chemistry. At least an A1 in Biology. I don't think some sciences suit some people, and some people don't realise this. Science doesn't suit me at all. I don't care how good it looks on my certificate, I just hate it.
