    I know that there was another thread created on this, but tbh I find that it was quite short sighted in scope and felt that it could have been used to compare the boards.ie average to the national average!

    I got 365, might be appealing Economics but as of yet I'm undecided.

    I got 435, exactly what my first preference was last year, the waiting begins again

    320 here - rly could have had more if I tried, but no there was no incentive until the last 2 months of the year.
    Fairly confident I'll get my 1st choice tho.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 970 ✭✭✭lemansky


    580.

    with a bit more effort it could've been 590 or even 600, but who cares? I couldn't be happier

    Well done all.

    For those that perhaps did not do as well as they hoped, please allow for the fact that this poll does not represent the national position as boards.ie users would not reflect the full range of people who sat the Leaving.

    540 points over here - fairly delighted as you can imagine


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,568 ✭✭✭ethernet

    Added points incorrectly twice -- was very excited when I saw the grade I really needed in maths.

    Very happy with 485. Older siblings settings standards -- hang your heads in shame!

    WOW: looked at the poll results. Lots of people with 555-600. Brainy bunch, aren't you?!

    I knew the Boards.ie average would be higher than the national one but I must say that I'm quite startled by just how high it is! Congratulations to everyone who feels that they were rewarded for the hard work they put in over the past two years - the world is now your oyster!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 280 ✭✭SamHamilton


    565! Delighted.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 317 ✭✭Geranium


    The average on this poll is crazily high, but I guess that's to do with the people who got high points wishing to show them off, if I did really badly the last thing I'd want to do is discuss it. I'm really happy though, 565 and can't complain!

    The real demographic is almost the direct opposite in the middle, although less weighty at the low end. ~11.3pc of candidates got less than 100 points, while 18.3pc achieved 450 or higher.

    In other news 330 here, and happy with it - all I needed. With more work over a year it could have been 400-500 :rolleyes:

    I just realised that it was over 100 not less, therefore my original post has been changed, my bad.

    Aye, I kinda forgot about the 100-200 category so I'm guessing that the person who saw <100 interpreted it as greater than 100 and less than 200. My bad :(.

    @Karma: Hmmm, Meatspin eh? Thanks, but I'd rather not have a spinning penis on my screen... at this time of the day!

    I got 370 in 2006 and got my first choice. You all seem to be a bit unfortunate as points look to be going up in some areas. I hope the majority of you get what you want and maybe join me in UCD.

    Peace.

    Hey are you appealing economics from a city centre school ?

    Teacher said it was a mistake for one particular school

    I got 365 and I'm over the moon. I only needed 200 to do Creative Multimedia in Dundalk.

    Irish - OL - C1
    English - OL - A2
    Maths - OL - B1
    History - HL - C3
    Art - HL - C2
    Biology - HL - C3
    Engineering - HL - B1

    The Maths B1 and Engineering B1 *should* have been A2's for me but sure what can you do.

    The strange thing is that a lot of the posters who claim to have got 550-600 are those who have been posting here regularly!
