    i think the mocks are only a money making scheme, in my schhol they are more expensive then the actuall leaving cert. its mad like i havent the course completed in any of my subjects. even if things come up in the mocks there is no garantee they will come up in the real thing. the only thing that matters is our practicals,oral and the real thing. i know the mocks are good to give you a feel for the timing and all but like we shouldnt have to pay for something that doesnt even count!!

    Why?
    Not everyone calls them that. In fact, I had never heard the term until I came to boards. Even the exam companies that supply the papers call them mocks.

    As Namlub said it was only a joke really. Most schools around here call them pres from talking to people but I've no problem with the title!
