I got mine back in 98....
I had been out on the sauce the night before and woke up at 4 pm.... forgot all about my results..... was watching Ricki Lake when the front door bell rang and it was my Principal with a brown envelope...... "congrats, sorcha, 470 points"

To which I naturally answered :

"What are ya at reading my private correspondence?"

im accepted into college, so I wait anxiously for the sight of other plebs opening their brown envelopes and realising theyll never become lawyers or doctors

My brother is getting his results aswell but hes already got into a college so he doesn't really seem to care.

im jus saying to myself. to complete the leavin cert was a milestone in itself.my results were decided the moment i walked out of the last exam. so its jus a question of finding out. nothing i can do now to change what i will get in the little envelope tomorrow.

wiensta

..words(thoughts?) eerily reminiscent of "the wonder years" there angeloffire

Just remember that the leaving cert isn't the end of your life wheather ya do well or not. APPLY TO ENGLAND!!!

10 years for me.. im bloody ancient...:rolleyes:

Mr E

Even if you don't get the points you need/want, things can work out....

Flashback.... 1992...... Got my results. I was hoping for at least 375 (to be absolutely sure), only got 350. The year before, the course I wanted to do was 360, so I feared the worst. A few weeks later, the points came out, and confirmed my fears. The course was 355! Gaaaah..... 5 miserable points!

A few weeks later, I checked the 2nd round offers, and it was still 355. I resigned myself to repeating the leaving cert. Went back to 6th year. It was seriously depressing having to go back....

2 weeks into my repeat year, Monday morning, I was called to the headmasters office. I thought "Oh crap... what now?". He proceeded to tell me that the points had dropped to 350 in the third round (which I hadn't bothered checking that weekend!) and I'd got offered the last place on the course! Left his office. There was a bunch of my teachers outside, waiting to congratulate me. Got my bag, walked out into the sunshine, left secondary school forever.....

I still regard that as the best day of my life (so far!).

Started college the very next day.

Moral of the Story - if you don't get what you were hoping for today, keep the chin up. Things have a habit of working out in the end.

12 years ago here


As i recall i had already got into Ballyfermot on the strength of portfolio so i didnt give a toss about the dreaded envelope. As a result of this i have never full understood wtf "350 points" etc means.


Good luck to everyone getting their results today and remember it REALLY isnt the end of the world if its not what you were expecting.

hedgetrimmer

Hm...10 years to the day fer me then

lordsippa

Got 355. Was hoping for 400 but once I got over 300 I'd have been happy.

Still... I'm gonna go check out my english paper and probably get it rechecked... Even 5 more points would be nice.

On a side note, what's everyone up to? I probably won't be on again to check this cause I intend to be majorly wasted all the rest of the day but still...

I'm think I'm going to someones house with a few others. Should be a laugh.

Tmb:
You know the scary thing is the EXACT same thing happened to me i needed 360 to get into DKIT (well it was an RTC then) and i got 355!! 5 stinkin points and i repeted 6th year 2 weeks in i got a place in DKIT on 2nd round placments!!

strange to think that everything in my life thats happened would have turned out totally different if i had repeted 6th year (reminds me strangly of a red dwarf epp) thank god i didnt repeate thats all i can say!!


Toxic Paddy:

Imagine You could have been Ace Al][en. The humiliation of being a clear foot taller than everyone else in the class would have made you fight back and become a high achiever, full of confidence.

What a Guy

Now stop lieing about your age at LAN parties

sigh..
Every year the newspapers and TV are full of annoying students jumping up and down screaming with joy.
Why don't they report on the very upset people? ... seems only fair.

Makes me sick every single year.....
