    Got 405, which I'm pretty happy with. Arts in UCC was 385 last year, so I reckon I'm safe.

    Thinking of getting Geography re-checked, though, as I only got a B3, and was expecting at least a high B, if not a low A. Ah well.

    Bring on the booze!

    Am I the only one who is severely PO'd with the business results. I'm not a genius by any stretch of the imagination but I thought that was the one exam I would do very well in and all I got was a C3.

    I`m delighted! I got 445 points!

    Thats crazy. I was getting like 300 points in summer and christmass tests. I worked really hard though and got 415 in the mocks but weas dissapointed with that cause I got a C3 in ord maths when I needed a B3, was really worried I would`nt get it and I ended up getting an A2!

    Mighty!!!

    500! Pretty happy though I missed out on my scholarship. Physics mark was a good bit lower than I expected so I might have a look at tha script.
    Roll on tonight!

    Gutted is too light a word to describe how i feel.
    Got 480, 5 short of what i need. Had my heart set on the course which has steadily risen over the last few years. Im getting german B1 rechecked and geography B3 rechecked.

    C1 in honours maths was nice, but not counting it.

    425 for me. I only needed 350 and C3 Maths. Got a B2. I'm going to TCD Computer Science. Woo.

    *celebrates*

    I got pretty bad marks in Physics and Geography. I mean, I got higher in Applied Maths than Physics, so there MUST be something wrong!

    Congrats to you all. This **** is out of our lives. Hoo-freakin'-ray!

    wow dude well done. Anybody who gets 600 has to earn it. About the physics appealing, there were alot of little things that I found out I got wrong, and even more little things I was relieved I remembered on the day. It was such an easy exam that they wud have marked hard on them, and even so, a whopping 10.6% of people got A1's. Take a look in the independant it has loads of fascinating figures, like that only 0.5% of people who did art got A1's!!! I got 545 points(higher than I expected), well high enough for civil engineering

    All HL:

    English: A1
    Irish: A2
    Maths: B2
    French: A1
    Biology: A2
    Geography: B2
    History: B2

    540 in total, which is not good as that was the level needed for Pharmacy in RCSI (by random selection) last year. So I don't know what will happen.

    When I first got my results, I thought I had got 2 B1s and thus 550, until the principal pointed out my mistake...

    I got way more points than i needed but somehow got a d in maths(i still can't believe that) so I can't do my engineering course....so essentially my points are worthless. fun

    535, so I'm dancing, even if I missed out on my first choice course (History and Political Science, 550). Yay, especially for an A1 in history, and an A2 in english - I thought I'd done badly in both of them. A2 in chemistry and B1 in physics a little surprising, they were my best exams, or so I thought, so I'll be having a gander at them when the checks are on... Everyone seems to have done really well. Thankfully all this sh*t is over and we can go get drunk continually, yay!

    I scored 505 in my mock exams, got 575 in the real thing so I'm delighted. I want to do Architecture in UCD, QUB or UL so I reckon I'll have a choice with a 45pt margin over last year's requirement!

    A1's: English, Maths, Geography, Physics
    A2's: Tech Drawing
    B1's: French, Irish
    B2's: Applied Maths

    Yeow!!!
