Mock Results

TheDoc · 28-02-2005 7:14pm #1

Well we are all frantic in doing our mock exams. I for one had my exams finished a week before the break, soi got two weeks off. Started to get my results back

First was Geography. 70% B1 75 points: I was thrilled and was very proud to get this good a mark, it is a really good sign, some slight mistakes on my writing but if i brush up on me topics ill get an A.

Economics 42% C3 45 points: Sounds kinda lousey, but compared to pass level its a b1, which i find amazing. I think tbh my economics teacher is rubbish, she is constantly going over and over stuff we did last year, alot of stuff cmae up I didnt know, and my class felt the same, a poor result but i can majorly improve on.

My DCU course requires 300 points, so 120 after 2 is great, so only 180 to get in last 4, i hope for the best, cause my girlfriend says she wil lgive me a "special" present if i get over 300.

So post your results when you get em and see if my thread on sharing mock exams helped.

Maths A1
Applied Maths A1
Tech Drawing A1
Physics B2
English D1
French D2

All higher total of 485 points, I'm pretty pleased still I'm gonna have to watch that I don't fail French.... and try and bring English and French up to C's. Hoping to get physics up to an A.

TheDoc · 28-02-2005 8:32pm

Well done man they are some nice results. A in honours maths. thats the hardest test in the exam to be honest, well done.

*Angel* · 28-02-2005 8:39pm

Well actually I find Maths kinda easy, but I'm terrible at languages probably cos I couldn't be bothered with learning the stuff. Good luck with the rest of your results!

Caoimhe · 01-03-2005 12:35am

Don't have everything yet but I'm pretty happy with what I've got so far:

English (H) - 71% - B3 (this was what I was really disappointed with coz I was quite proud of my paper. I've officially given up on English to focus on my other subjects now...)
Maths (H) - 89% - A2
Biology (H) - I don't know my exact grade because there was a massive problem with the standard of correction and they all had to be sent back. My teacher said she looked through it and its an A1 though.
Chemistry (H) - 92% - A1 (Almost DIED today when I saw this, couldn't believe my luck)
German (H) - 88% - A2 (Really gotta work on my oral, its what brought me down)

I think I can bring those up to A1s with enough work and get my course, provided I ignore English for a while. Need 580 though so fingers crossed for me!

Scarinae · 01-03-2005 11:25am

Well done Caoimhe! Those are brilliant results for the mocks, I'd say you'll almost definitely gets your A1s in Maths and German in the Leaving Cert. What course are you going for that you need 580, Medicine or something?

Just have english back now and I got a C3. Happy enough with it!

Well done on your results Caoimhe!!

lestats_bride · 02-03-2005 6:09pm

We've sent ours away.Does anyone know how long they take to get back?

TheDoc · 02-03-2005 6:18pm

About two weeks maybe. TBH I have just been messing round with no study this week, ive lost the plot a bit, some bad meults really kicked me in the nether region. =(

Dublinstiofán · 02-03-2005 6:19pm

They took our school about a week and a half but we started ours on the 20 of Jan so id say they had no others to correct at that time because there is only one school gay enough to start mocks that early.

Dont think ill share my results theyre **** thank god its only the mocks. Well done to everybody that did well but 1 word of warning i have heard peoples stories of good results in the mocks turn into disaster stories for the leavin so be careful dont get too cocky.

lestats_bride · 02-03-2005 6:24pm

I'm taking a few days off the study now.I'll start again on monday.I'm exhausted!

Me too, I just can't be bothered with doing any work, I'm so fed up with school now, it's depressing that the next exams coming are the leaving certs.

Dublinstiofán · 02-03-2005 6:33pm

sounds like fun best of luck with that

segadreamcast · 02-03-2005 6:40pm

Jesus christ - it just struck me this morning as I was walking into school and talking to a friend...

"This is my last mock! Then the leaving cert but that's a whole...12...weeks...away. Oh God."

So my relief is...kinda tainted I suppose by this. Does anyone else feel the same? I didn't realise it was so close - only around 9/10 weeks of school left - oh yeah/oh no!

I'll post the results here as I get 'em (hah, after all my whining about people sharing history mocks - I'm sure somebody will find great justice in the fact that I screwed up my history mock quite badly. Bah.)

Best of luck to anyone who's still working away though...

EDIT: Well done Caoimhe. Awesome results - just, as you know (you clever person :P!) - complacency is the keyword now. Avoid it like the plague - you're well on your way to 580 with results like that though!

Yep and the orals are in about 6 weeks it's actually really really scary, oh what I'd give to be in 4th yr (or 5th) again!

Caoimhe · 03-03-2005 12:22am

Ye are all so nice! Did my mocks before the midterm, started on 31st of Jan (hence missing Green Day *shakes fist*) but not all of them are back, the correcting takes ages in some (Geography and Higher Irish are taking forever)
Yeah Ailbhe, Medicine in Trinity... Little scared by the hugeness of the points but I'm gonna do my best. Can't bloody concentrate though, midterm made me lazy as hell.

03-03-2005 4:03pm

****ing hell Caoimhe. ****ing hell.

Sully · 07-03-2005 1:37pm

Well this is what I got today;

Maths (O) 46% - twas a tough paper, happy with the result.
Computers (H) 72% - Brilliant, but would like to do better.

Thats it so far!

Zukustious · 08-03-2005 5:44pm

Thank you very much

punky bruster · 08-03-2005 7:24pm

Hi this is probably going to sound really stupid to some of ye but what is applied maths? We dont do that subject in our school!

Alkers · 08-03-2005 9:02pm

465 overall. Christmas was 495 but only for stuff covered in 6th year.
German -85%
English - 72%
Maths - 58%
Physics - 70%
App. Math - 63%
Accounting - 58%
Business - 68%
Irish - 85%
All higher.
Very dissapointed with Business and Accounting as I have been averaging at least B2's in both all along. Should pick up by June, need 510 to be safe. :rolleyes:

Scarinae · 08-03-2005 10:01pm

Punky Bruster, Applied Maths is kind of the Maths part of Physics in a bit more detail. It's not abstract like some sections of normal Maths, it's all directly related to real life. You study things like forces and momentum and circular motion. It's more interesting than normal Maths. Perhaps someone else could explain it better though, you're probably still super confused!

punky bruster · 09-03-2005 9:53pm

Thanks a mill fishie, no i aint really confused anymore just wanted a brief description,so thanks a milllion!

JackKelly · 09-03-2005 10:57pm
