    A question to whoever already completed their LC.

    How many points did you expect to get, and how many did you actually get?

    Last year, wanted to get 400, got exactly 400.. I knew I was repeating for a long time so I didn't really care, but still it was nice to get what I wanted. Hoping to get a lot more this year, so hopefully I'll walk out with a smile again :)

    Honestly, don't worry about this kind of stuff now. Be confident - that goes a long way. Take no notice of the Mocks either, I failed mine, got overall like 290 points. Most students don't start study until a few weeks before the Mocks. Compare doing 2 weeks of study for Mocks and what grades you got, to doing 3.5 months of study everyday for the Leaving and what kind of grades you could get. Good luck man !

    I aimed for 460 (pulled the number out of the air)
    I expected to get 380-400 (seemed a reasonable improvement on my mock results, which I can't remember now)
    I got 460.
