    The part about qualifications is extremely worrying to me they won't accept a levels etc in place of gcses

    I guess since that's not proof that English and maths GCSE has been passed

    So pass is 51. That's roughly the same as last campaign (52). I just scraped in the last time.

    Is that 51 percent or 51 out of 75

    I imagine they would. The list in the email is a minimum I think.

    Interesting to note the IT certificate must be dated before 2nd December 2013 - NO EXCEPTIONS.

    They could be sent out based on candidate location, score, AC date or any other reason.

    Don't panic just yet.

    As I posted earlier, my brother got in with a 57 and Feb A/C, so I'm not hopeful.

    Long night ahead.

    Nah it does say in the blurb underneath the list that having a levels is no proof of having the appropriate a levels...or something to that effect


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12 Jen2013


    what date did your brother sit his? My bro in law passed, he sat his a week before me and I am hoping that's why I haven't heard yet :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 357 ✭✭MD4PSNI

    Hey hope everyone did well. I passed with 61 out of 75. My UID was a 3XXX and I got the email about half an hour ago. Maybe they're going in descending order or something.

    5 or more GCSEs (or equivalent) at A*-C grade, including Maths and English Language. (You must supply evidence of your having the requisite number of GCSEs or equivalent, and note that by having achieved A-levels or a higher level qualification, without the requisite GCSEs, does not exempt you from having to provide evidence of having the requisite GCSEs).
    · Recognised IT qualification. (Recognised IT qualifications include European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL) Essential Level 1, Essential Skills Level 1 ICT, CLAIT Level 1, a pass at GCSE ICT or a Higher Level qualification in an IT related discipline or a module in IT taken by examination as part of a University degree. (Note - A certificate must be provided by the awarding body’s examination office to state that the module was tested by examination and the module content would be at least equivalent to one of the above qualifications. Letters from individual lecturers, professors or other academic staff will not be acceptable).)


    For those still waiting on their results and querying their qualifications
