The biology experiments were nice I thought, should do well on them although seeing as the exam went so well for most people I think that I'll find it hard to secure top marks on the heart, though the 2nd question of mixed question – SEC is slipping up.

Seriously, the love of Christ has penetrated their Satan-worshipping grounds. Lovely question. My only regret is not doing an extra question in the final section but hey, I think it went pretty much okay and I'm happy with it. Let the painful, painful cramming for Chemistry begin.

Four days of pure chemistry study . . . It's like my dream come true! and yes, I really am THAT weirdly in love with science and it's many wonders - Annah – leaving-cert.net

I’m really upset. I was counting on Art History to bring me up a bit, but now . . . I’d be lucky with a pass.

At least I'm finished now until Music, I'm gonna go out and meet some friends later – might take my mind off things! - Valerie – leaving-cert.net

Have they made this year’s Leaving Cert harder? I think everyone knows about the Boland fiasco, they were perfectly right to do what they did but logic dictated she’d come up. In geography they decided to throw in a question on metamorphic rocks in Ireland which I don’t even think is in our book.

In art history Newgrange didn't come up!! In the last decade it came up every second year and was a cert for this year but again they didn't put it up? - Whippedcream – boards.ie

Harder, I wouldn't really say so. It seems like they're trying to eliminate predictions, so as students actually know the stuff if they get good marks. - Ix Deadmau5 – boards.ie

Can't blame them for trying to shake things up a little bit. I mean things like art history were getting SO easy to predict. Students were only learning the stuff tipped. - Chaos – boards.ie

So, I'm up, washed, dressed and fed. Now all I have to do is learn 3 years of home ec theory in what, 45 mins? Yeah, cos that's do-able. - katehasahitlist - Twitter

German was ok. The tape was a bit hard. I think i might've got a C but I always get C. I'm finished now! - Danielle­_murph – Twitter

That aural was BEAutiful! The letter was awkward but I've never seen easier comprehensions. Thanks German paper setter! - Ummtea – boards.ie

That has to have been the easiest German written and aural tests on the Leaving Cert so far! Delighted with them and oral went well so hoping for an A! Worried that the marking scheme will be terrible because of it, but still gave a load of details anywhere I could. - Leinster2010 – boards.ie

I liked it, but my timing sucked as usual . . . my last point of the letter was really short . . . DANCE LESSONS?! what did people write for that anyway?  - Aislingx – boards.ie
