    Failed OL maths and OL biology. I wasn't really arsed with biology, stayed in the exam about an hour because I knew it wouldn't be counted in my top 6. I couldn't do a lot of maths and was expecting a fail, and low and behold my worst fears were realized today!

    Gonna have to repeat.

    Ah now lads and lassies. You don't need to depress yourselves like this. Trust me, it's worth repeating to get what you want.

    I'm sure you're all a lot more intelligent than what you give yourselves credit for. You just may have had a bad day in certain exams. It happens.

    You'll have a much better idea of how to go about it next year should you choose to repeat. I know it's another year of school and study but you're more equipped to deal with the situation now so don't lose heart. You'll get there eventually and please don't put yourself down because you may not have done particularly well.

    Enjoy the rest of your summer and then go back into it with a new approach. You'll have a huge advantage to everyone else in the country because you now know what is expected and you can definitely achieve your goals without a doubt.

    I know it's horrible to think of everyone else off in college but fcuk it, it's your life and you're the one in control of it so don't worry about anyone else except yourself.

    You can't fail the Leaving Cert any more, just fail a subject. It's up to the colleges whether or not they deem a pass nessessary in the subjects like Maths or English.
