What students have been saying about the exams on the Skoool.ie forum

im in the middle of my leaving right now. i started on wed the 7th and finish on wed the 14th...I dont know how the department can expect a student to do the best they can, if all the tests are crammed together, it ridiculous! its very stressful and worrying the way a whole 2/3 years of studying is based on a week. what if ur just having a bad week?

On wednesday morning I went to go use the bathroom only to find they were closed off because 3 girls got sick . . . can u believe it 3 girls were that nervous that they got sick, it shows the amount of stress young people are under nowadays! - Rhea Delaney

I was really worried about the Leaving Cert before Wednesday but after the two English papers, I think that its not so bad anymore.

English paper one? Not bad could have been worse. Essay titles werent great but done the world leader speech. English paper two? Hand was cramped I can tell you but there were no nasty surprises. Bishop was alright.

Bring on Monday, Fred
