Even Spin1038 got youth being more logical and less worked up earlier on their talk show. Joe pulls in the moaners. But, in fairness, some good points. And makes great entertainment. (I still think this was handled very badly, however)

I dont know about this but it was when I did my leaving cert (2002). The computer programming course I did required a C in honours english. Pretty much nothing I had learnt for the leaving cert was needed in the end.

Plus, a good amount of the comments are trolling and general idiocy. Even if it did go through, if, the higher ups wouldn't take it seriously. Not with, 'LOL GUYZ IM MCBETHHH SUCKS FOR YE ROLF!!!!!'.

One of the most important factors of the Leaving Cert is choosing the right material to cover and with some people doing up to 9 subjects it's just not possible to cover every facit of the course. So yes people do base their studies on past experience and advise from others. It is ridiculous to call people lazy because they are trying to space out their workload. These students have every right to be annoyed when they see that this small but vital risk has paid off but because of some mentally challenged man that cannot differentiate between the number 1 and 2 they have been screwed out of the perfect paper.

It's ironic that every newspaper in Ireland managed to publish something about it and they received the news late last night and I could get the newspaper at 7am in my local shop. The SEC received the info at 4:30pm and they could have sent it out then.
