Guevara01 Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 I'm sure you'll do well too. I left less than half way through my statistics exam last year and still passed. What they don't tell you is that it's easier to pass on the higher paper than it is on the intermediate. Way easier. xxx Quote
Jess Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Is the grading system the same in Ireland, just out of interest? ie A*, A, B, C, D, E? Quote
angelgirl Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 I just notised I can post here!I thought it was like 2500 posts or something! Quote
Cal Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Is the grading system the same in Ireland, just out of interest? ie A*, A, B, C, D, E? It's a bit differant. 0-9 = NG (No Grade) 10-24 = F 25-39 = E 40-54 = D 55-69 = C 70-84 = B 85-100 = A Quote
Jess Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Ahh....I see. The marks required for each grade here vary year to year. It just depends what kind of marks the whole country gets in general. In fact it goes down to a G (or a U - 'Unclassified' if you get literally 0%), but when looking at grades, employers look at C and above. I hate exams in this country, there's too much pressure, it's just exam after exam after exam. Quote

A guy went into sit his Leaving Cert(A Levels) the other day, and the headmaster wouldn't let him do it because his hair was too short! Quote
Jess Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Seriously? How can your hair be too short? Too long maybe, but too SHORT? Quote
Cal Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 Seriously? How can your hair be too short? Too long maybe, but too SHORT? That is what I am curfuffled about. His hair was actually really nice and styled! Quote
Jess Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 How very bizarre. It's almost like the Head didn't WANT him to take the exam.... Strange. Quote
Cal Posted June 12, 2006 Report Posted June 12, 2006 How very bizarre. It's almost like the Head didn't WANT him to take the exam.... Strange. Well, it is typical of this country to look down on certain people if they are not 'Up To Standards'. Grr! Quote
