Question to HL LC maths students re: JC Maths results

koolis02

In your JC HL maths exam, what grade did you get?

Mr. G

It's worth noting that if you're doing your Junior Cert this year then the [majority] of comments here would be from people who have just started the Project Maths curriculum.

I got a C in the JC and chose HL Maths for the Leaving Cert.

I got an A in the JC but for the LC I've been constantly getting Ds and Cs.. hopefully I'll get a B today though!

I am the complete opposite of you. I got a D in JC and now I am getting As and Bs

I got an A in JC I'm getting A/B but mostly B's at the moment..

I got a B in the JC

Hello 1996

I got a B in the JC.

In my opinion, it dosent matter what you get in the JC-there are people in my class that got As in the JC that arent doing great, while others got Bs and Cs and are doing really well! Its all about how much work you are prepared to put in

OP you might not find the greatest correlation here between JC and LC
JC maths is a lot easier, so people may do well in it but struggle with the jump to LC
Others may have been lazy for JC put put the work in and do better at LC
I got an A in JC and an A in LC

Did the LC last year and got a C2 in Higher Level, was very happy with it tbh.

Got a B in the JC Higher Level, was shocked at the time. Failed most class tests. I remember a lot of people who always got A/B in the class test got the same as me in the exam.

I did the LC in 2010, got a C in JC maths.

Did TY and got the messer out of me, got an A1 in the LC.

(TY put the messer in me :P)

Got an A in OL JC

Am hoping for a D1 in HL LC

I've liked maths ever since I was little but I really messed up around 2nd and 3rd year. I got a C in JC.

I was so disapointed but I turned everything around during TY. Been getting As and Bs since TY. I wanted an A for LC but I don't think that's a realistic goal after today's paper. Hoping for a B now.

I got a D in honours in the JC, my junior cert teachers really let me down though. I actually love maths but I only went back to honours after doing pass for TY, I reckon if it wasn't for my absolutely shocking Junior Cert tuition I'd be towards the top of my class at this stage.

HL maths for the LC isn't as bad as they make out to be imo.

I got an A in HL JC. The two mocks I did at HL, I got D2 both times.
At the best, that's what I got in paper 1 yesterday. I've worked so hard this year bit maths is a constant struggle. I let it slip a bit in 5th year. Remember it's a 2 year course, I wish I worked much harder in 5th year.
You know what's sad, I actually was praying I'd sneak a pass before the exam lately.
I blame the cross-over of curriculum. Like we only started project maths in 5th year.
I'd say most JC students this year are in a better position to go on and do better though.
You have been doing project maths much longer. All of you learnt the basics first. I, like many others, was thrown in at the deep end in 5th year.

Got an A in both my JC mock and real thing and have to say they were the easier A's I ever got. I had an incredible teacher and loved maths.
Had a different teacher for LC, got A1's the whole way through 5th year and then dropped to B's in 6th year. I did an awful lot of work in the last few months, was really hoping to push my 84 in my second mock up to above 90 for the A1. After yesterday I don't think that's at all a realistic goal, but still hoping for a B1.

plmko

A in JC and B's in HL now

aleatorio

A in the JC ( in the top 0.2% of the country according to some letter I got :rolleyes:)
Generally an A1 student now, aiming for an A1 in the LC provided Monday morning goes to plan
That said, I've always had a natural affinity for Maths and Science :pac:
