Leaving Cert 2015 Results thread

Kremin

Well ****. Got 540, course was 535 last year, gonna be a tight squeeze I think.
Really disappointed with Geo (b3) when I thought I got an A2 or B1 at least, gonna go in and get it rechecked I think.
Got the A1 and A2 in Maths and Applied Maths though which made me happy.

That's serious going, well done!

I'm about 50 above last years points for my course so I'm happy with that

It was seriously anticlimactic

I got 505, course was 365 last year. I needed a B3 in German and I got an A1 and I needed a C3 in English and I got a B1. Happiest of all about my LCVP distinction! Can't wait to click accept on Monday

Congrats to all you guys :P

Troxck

Lads I actually rechecked the requirements for my first choice and it says it accepts passes in HL Maths as long as you get the honours in Physics (which I did) and given that I got 465 and my course was 355 last year, I think I'm okay!

I panicked there but happily avoided a crisis!

Well done to all of you, we're done now, we're free!

Yaaaaaay. 275 points which is really good for me!

I'm so glad everyone on here is happy!

It's so weird that that's the last time I'll be in my school!

gryfothegreat

Very happy with mine, got the requirements for engineering and I should get NUIG's excellence grant, all I need now is to get the Naughton Scholarship and I will be sorted! Congratulations to all the rest of ye, hope the mammies aren't driving you as mad as mine :P

westernfrenzy

Still in shock over that A2 in English

AulBiddy

440, got an A2 in the OL maths paper I'm about 60 points off my course so I can't help but be just the slightest bit disappointed. Still though I know someone would be delighted with this so I'm trying to be positive well done everyone! Feel like a proud mother this morning :P

Jijsaw

I got 585 :O I cannot f**king believe it, A1's in English, Irish, French, German and Geography and a B1 in Business-f**k you business!

I cannot believe it, my bloody heart. I was crying with happiness!

Blue giant

I got 510. All B's. Course was 515 last year so I'll more than likely get my second choice. Can't help but feel a bit disappointed. I thought I might have got 1 or 2 A's.

eoin12345

Delighted with my results!!! 460 overall and got a c1 in maths. Only five points above my first choice though so really hoping it doesn't rise! But anyway that's Mondays problem!!!! congratulations to everyone else here too!

You people make me feel stupid and stupid I am not :pac:

Well done everyone, I'm glad you're all happy

Congrats man! 585 thats insane.
Got a b1 in business too, pretty happy considering was getting 20% in every test up until the mocks. Teacher clearly marks way too hard

Yeah. Hopefully it could. You never know. I wouldn't really mind getting my second choice though.

Grey Wind

A guy in my year got nine A1s :O


Got 465, very happy overall since my course was 420 the last two years. Kind of disappointed with english and french though (B2 and C1), since I generally get above 80 in english and I got a B in french in the mocks.

Frigating

490 points. Well over the 300 I needed for my course, so I'm happy. Did a lot better than I was expecting. A2s in maths and dcg, which is madness. Only disappointed with my B3 in French, since I'm hoping to study it next year. Thinking about viewing my script just to see where I can improve. Do we get our oral marks as part of the viewing, or is it just the written paper?

But anyway, ITS OVER! We did it, people! 2 years of preparations and study are done, and I hope they've paid off for everyone and that you're all happy. To anyone who is unhappy, the leaving cert in a memory test, not an intelligence test, and not a reflection of you as a person. Remember there are back door routes into most courses. And to anyone thinking of repeating, you get 'em tiger! Kick those exams in the balls!

Well done everyone who got what they wanted

Unfortunately English let me down big time. I was expecting a B2/B3. My teacher and grinds teacher said I should get that grade but to my surprise got a D2! Never got a D in English in my life, seriously don't know how that happened

Incredibly disappointed, looks like I'll be repeating

It might be worth viewing your script and appealing, if you're that far off your average it could be that the examiner made a mistake or forgot a section.

Check the script with your teacher, may be worth getting rechecked

aquse

A1 in ordinary math, I knew I should've done higher all along!

An A2 in English... somehow. I got a D1 in the mocks, I knew my teacher was a strict corrector, but still.

A2 in both history and geography, don't know how I pulled off the history mark on that one. One of the essays I bull****ted on pretty hard, but everything else I knew.

B1 in business, this is the only subject that I thought I'd do better in.

A1 in Russian, also not that surprising.

515 points in the end, I want to see all of the scripts out of sheer curiosity.

Well, I'm like 90 points over for my CS course in DIT, so I'm set.

d1234

Happy out with results! Got an A2 in English which was truly unexpected! Disappointed with biology though - though I would have done better. I would urge everyone to view your scripts - even the papers you did well in. It won't take that long to get through them and it's free too! Have a good night everyone

quirkista

I hope it's not presumptive of me to sign up for Fresher's Fest in UCC with 475 points. I intend to study either Chemical Sciences and Biological and Chemical Sciences, 435 points and 445 points respectively last year.
Anybody else really disappointed with English?

Eazzah

320 which is about 100 more than I expected.

Doctorhopeful

I'm still kicking myself over not applying to ad astra, imagine getting paid to study! Never in a million year thought i'd get 7 A's though

westernfrenzy

Delighted with my other results as well. Aside from the A2 in HL English, I got a B2 in HL History, a C2 in OL Biology, a C3 in OL Irish, a D1 in OL Maths and a D3 in HL Business

irishlad12345

last year i got 175 and was gutted this year i got 300 which is my exact course requirement and i have hear so i hope i am safe

Thar_Cian

I got 580! I was not expecting that at all. All As aside from a B1 in physics (though it's quite the change from my previous F). It hasn't sunk in yet. I'm so glad I decided to repeat. I feel excited for college now, whereas last year I was anxious and didn't want to go.

Laurenom

Got 440! 30 off teaching but maybe it's not meant for me so DIT it is! Disappointed with homec as was sure I got at least B1/A2 - only got B3 so definitely getting it rechecked!
Still happy over all well done everyone, just remember not to rank yourself amongst everyone else's results , once we get to college were all on the same level regardless of what you got!

A97

I broke 600. I missed out on the A in maths though, but I have no reason to complain. It's what I expected to get too which is fair enough. You should all get your scripts checked as there is often an addition error and many appealed results can bring you up 5 points or so. LCVP goes up in 20 point increments! Even if you got an A1, it would be good to look at out of interest.

Have you Arts down for anywhere? I'm pretty sure there's a few colleges that accept you for Arts even with a fail in maths.

MmmPancakes

585 wuaaaaaaaaaa

Krydan

Got 500, couldn't be any happier.
Course was 435 last year so should be in the clear.
A1 in DCG, A2 in Physics, B1 in Business, C1 in English, B3 HL Maths, D1 Spanish, C2 OL Irish and Merit LCVP.

Maths was the biggest shock, I was hoping to pass the exam!

Congratulations to everyone on here!

Quarks

Bitter sweet for me. Got the points I needed/wanted, but I didn't get the min entry requirements.

The Adversary

420. Course I wanted was 250 but failed Maths... Trying to focus on the positives anyway. Well done everyone.

blobcat

Got 490! Was delighted to get my French A1 and of course happy to pass OL Maths (with a D2).

Was surprised to get a B3 in Biology, was expecting a C grade, I guess they marked it easy? Disappointed to get a B3 in Art as I usually get a B1. Was really hoping to scrape an A2 in Irish as I was very happy with my oral but I got my usual B1.

Even though I will get my course, I can't help but be a little disappointed that I didn't get over 500. Especially when I see the amazing points that many of you got! I know it's not a competition but I can't help but compare!

I hope you all got what you wanted! At least we can stop worrying about it now.

EaSwe

585, delighted with the points.

Little bit surprised with one or two of the grades.. Have one subject that I'll probably appeal. I have no real cause for complaint though.

Peg14

I got 560 and I couldn't ask for more. Got the A1 in Irish and German, then A2 in music and biology, B1 in art and then the biggest surprise of them all, a C1 in maths. That was the first result I looked at and I was just so delighted, still am. English was bit lower than expected but I couldn't care less now! :P

bmea

Went up 95 points from the pres. Its possible folks!

Hon the Dubs

555 overall!
A1 in maths and physics, A2 in ap. Maths, b1 in Spanish, b2 in Irish and b3 in English and biology
Tempted to get English rechecked but I'm away for viewing of scripts so I'm not sure what to do

AlfaJack

I actually can't believe I got 615!! I keep re-reading it to make sure I've read it right!
I really want to do veterinary which was 580 last year so I'm absolutely delighted! Just an A2 in Biology let me down haha
Well done to everyone though!

if832uspx4eogt

I got 520, I'm absoloutly shocked! I was fully convinced I'd gone down from my mocks, but I went up 45 points !! I can't believe it. I almost want to view my English paper because I was so sure I made a mess of it, and I got a B2!

irishlad12345

I got exactly my course points and i have hear so if the course goes up say 15 points should i be safe ?

guitargirl

Got 385 and I know I should be happy with that but I know I can do so much better. Gonna have a look at all of them and possibly appeal but I don't know yet. Really upset with biology and economics, but for now I'm just gonna contemplate my options

Fiona G

Got 575!! Such a shock :P
Got A1s in french and biology, A2s in maths and physics, B1s in Irish and chemistry and a B2 in English!! Should be on my way to UCD science in a few weeks

Kremin

Does anyone know how viewing the papers goes? I submitted the form with the subjects I'd like to check. Do you bring anythig in with you? e.g calculator and is it supervised by someone?
Really hope someone made a mistake on my geography paper because I'd really like those 15 points :l

The amount of points a particular course is reduced by is dependent on a number of factors, such as;

The overall number of places on the course.
The number of reserved HEAR places on the course.
The number of HEAR eligible applicants competing for these reserved places.
The reduction in points for HEAR places varies every year.

If you got the course points though your probably fine Go out and enjoy your day.
