Is it too late...

I was offered a mature student place for a degree but I have to achieve a HC3 in honours maths, is it too late to register for the exam?

i believe it is too late to register for the leaving this year as an external student. the details are on www.examinations.ie

do you specifically need a HC3 in the leaving cert or will an equivalent standard do? For example last year, some of the colleges ran mathematics exams in august after the leaving results came out which were higher leaving cert standard. These were for students who had got the points for courses but had not got say a HC3 in maths. Would your college accept this exam? I suppose it's too late to register for A-level maths?
