    Hi,

    I done my leaving cert in 2010 and repeated in 2011 at the time I didn't no why I wanted to do.

    The past 3 years I have wanted to do primary teaching but don't have higher level Irish. Should I do n arts degree in ucd nd repeat my Irish and go on to study primary teaching or would I be better to repeat my whole leaving cert again?

    All opinions welcome thanks :)

    Depends on your financial situation really.
    You will only get grants/free fees once.

    Do you have enough points for primary teaching and are just missing HL Irish?
    If so you can just repeat Irish HL I think and then reapply to the CAO.

    How old are you?? Are you old enough to get in as a mature student? Then the points won't matter and you can just sit the HL Irish to get the grade needed.
