How many Higher Level subjects are you doing??

    I began fifth year doing 8 Higher level subjects.

    The following January, I dropped Applied Maths, leaving me with 7 Higher subjects.

    January of this year, I dropped Maths and French to pass, leaving me with 5 Higher subjects.

    And now, having failed nearly EVERY chemistry test I've ever sat, I've decided to take the pass chemistry paper too.

    I started 5th year on 8 Higher Level subjects, and 0 ordinary-level subjects. I'm now doing the leaving cert on 4 higher-levels, and 3 ordinary-levels.

    I don't think I care really, because as far as I'm concerned, you could be doing all-ordinary subjects: the leavin still isn't any sort of an indication as to your abilities in life and in your chosen career.

    Anyway, how many Higher-level subjects are you all doing??
