    Just wondering what subjects is everyone doing next year? My choices have to be in by 4th March. Im doing:
    English, Irish, Maths, French, Geography, Economics and either Biology or Physics.
    Im kinda leaning towards biology because I will prob. be dropping down to pass maths next year. And there will definetly be a Bio class, not sure about physics, and im good at rattling off definitions. And i prefer the biology teacher to the physics one.
    What are you guys going to pick? Or are you doing TY?

    I am planning to do TY but not everyone gets in so I have to wait and see.

    We haven't been given our choices for 5th year yet either..

    Dropping down to Ordinary Level Maths next year is subject to what I get for the Junior Cert and if I find it tough in 5th year. I hate my current teacher so maybe my Leaving Cert Maths teacher will help me re-find my love for the subject. :o

    And I'll be dropping History and keeping Geography as well as doing Physics.

    Im really unsure whether to do Physics or Biology? Help! I wouldnt mind either but i have to pick one. Physics class would be smaller so more attention which is a good thing? I hav the phys and bio books to look at over midterm and see which one looks more interesting...:S

    What I wanted: Eng/irish/maths, Spanish, Accounting, History, Economics

    What I'm getting: Eng/irish/maths, Spanish, geography, history and business. May do Accounting outside of school but pretty annoyed tbh

    Omg Legion, i would be going mental if i didnt get 2 of my choices. Eek im kinda nervous now but my school is kinda big , about 160 in my year in 6 classes, so hopefully there will be enough people for the classes i want. Is your school small?
