    A month sounds like an awfully long time, then I realised it's been a month today since I finished the LC and it flew, so reults will be on me in no time!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,103 ✭✭✭misslt

    Well, firstly, you don't have to tell them your result. If they're nosy enough to ask, it's telling you alot about them (unless you're good friends with them or something).
    Secondly, if they call or think your stupid by your result, they're not only idiots themselves, but ignorant and rather cruel people.
    Thirdly, that's not why you should be not looking forward to your result, worry about what colleges/unis and not what everyone else might think! :)
    And finally, from watching lots of the LCers in my time, they always go "oh noez I won't get what I want/I'll get low points" and they end up doing better. In nearly all cases.

    25 more days...
    Anyone have any idea what time the schools get them/give them out at? Or does it vary from school to school? I'm seriously considering camping out in the school the night before...
    I just want to get my results; I know I'll get something, I just want to know how I did!!

    Usually at 9am anyway! As I said before Im seriously going to have the ****ters the night before because I worked like a mofo this year to get what I want!

    I realised this myself on Wednesday. Nearly fell off my chair.

    I hate waiting for results but worse, I hate not knowing where I am going to be in September. It freaks me out!

    I have to plan what I am going to do that morning.
    Do I get up at 6 and stare at my PC?
    Do I wait and go in with my friends that morning for the results?
    Open them in private or public?
    I'm glad I have no idea how I did. Stops me from trying to guess.


    And my LC nightmares have been replaced by Debs nightmares! :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,836 ✭✭✭TanG411


    when I thought about it, I just smiled. I really can't wait :pac:

    Definately going to do a load of stuff the day before though. Just to help me sleep.

    Augest 12th,
    There delivered in the school doors at 9am on the dot it usualy spot on!
    But you havent a hope of getting your results untill 10am at least as they arive in big sealed bags and must be opened sorted and put in envelopes by the school
    In our school the twoo secitarys in the reception do it for about 100 sudents and it takes them an hour

    but obviously this varys if your school is piss lazy yeah mite be quicker to get them online at 12pm when there posted up:rolleyes:

    23 days ladies and gentlemen!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10 Sarah Louise


    I've been doing enough to keep my mind off them.. But today I found my old books while cleaning my room.. All came flooding back!!! I wish I could find out what I got on individual papers, like Art craft pieces and my History special topic. Oh, how I love my essay :D... it was just the exam that went badly :(

    Nonetheless..c'mon results!!!

    I'm looking forward to getting results. Really am.

    Can't wait to get them, I'm not nervous at all.

    And really looking forward to seeing everyone again I miss them all.

    And getting to go back to school and see all the teachers. I miss it already.


  • Registered Users Posts: 108 ✭✭internetaddict


    I remember staring at the envelopes in front of my principal for ages during the junior cert results as she made a fabulous speech (sarcasm) that I can't remember. I bet she'll outdo herself on the leaving cert. results speech..

    I might jump up and scream "JUST GIVE ME THE BLOODY ENVELOPE AND LET ME GET OUT OF HERE FOREVER!" but that might be a little melodramatic..:o


  • Registered Users Posts: 221 ✭✭Niamhf

    Midday (I think).
    40€ per subject.
    Highly unlikely.

    Just go to www.examinations.ie for all the info you need.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,125 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    It's free if you appeal and you go up a grade as far as I know.

    Yes you can go down, but it rarely happens.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,212 ✭✭✭Delta Kilo


    Nah I heard that they cannot bring your result down... It can only stay the same or go up.


  • Registered Users Posts: 215 ✭✭dermo1990


    I remember hearing this from one of my teachers...They had a student a number of years ago who appealed one of their papers and it resulted in their grade falling. Basically, you should only appeal if you're sure a grade increase is a sure thing
