    Is 8 months enough to study the Leaving Cert from scratch?

    My subjects:

    Maths (H)
    Physics (H)
    Biology (H)
    Applied Maths (H)
    Chemistry (H)
    English (O)

    From scratch as in really from scratch? No.

    With a basic JC Level knowledge of the fundamentals of those subjects? Probably. Other than Biology and English, they are not really essay style subjects. There is a fair amount of overlap in some of them.

    I suppose it depends how well you want to do and how long you actually spend working at it each day.

    You don't have a 'foreign language' included, do you need it for what you want to do?

    Foreign language mightn't be part of the course itself, but you might require one to get in.Check the requirements.
    It is a big ask, if you are starting from absolute scratch.
