Career Advise

dpp v mcgee

A fifth year student approached me seeking advice on what careers and course they might pursue following their Junior Cert. Their Junior Cert results show many discrepancies but I think its because they did not apply themselves properly. From the results below, what area of study or jobs should I advise they pursue?

I wouldn't base any career choice on their results in any exam.
What interests them?

One thing I'd like to say is a B grade in Honours Irish is brilliant. Also the B in engineering is quite an achievement too! Is the student planning on doing a Leaving Cert or LCA? I'd seriously suggest that they do. That way they can focus on the subjects they have interest in and work hard for the Leaving Cert. With a good Leaving Cert the student would have a lot of options Like spurious said though, what interests him? Cause it's important to follow in something you're genuinely interested in.
