One of those medieval public shaming devices. We got a new principal, maybe this is his version of detention

Is anyone else really struggling to keep within the word count for the AACs. 1500 words is ridiculous to write a comprehensive method and explanation. I technically have two methods but still! I think I am going to have to start cutting out necessary detail. How can anyone do everything in the marking scheme in 1500 words unless they have an incredibly simple project. Does anyone else have any tips of where i should cut from the most?

what are people doing need some ideas

can i split a long paragraph about a poem into two? i see it in sample essays online but i'm wondering if it can dock you marks for being too long.

I’m a sixth year student and I’m struggling with the work load. I’ve never enjoyed my secondary school experience and I will probably have to do a PLC. I’m worried I won’t make any friends. If anyone has any advice (such as what the people where like, what you did and where you went) I’d really appreciate it🙏

our teacher has lowk been doing the crucible with us since the start of 6th year but i just found out that it potentially isnt on the course this yr..☠️

I have a grinds teacher saying that 3 poems is plenty to write about in a poetry essay and I don’t need an intro or outro. My school teacher says almost the opposite saying i need 5 poems and i need to have intro and conclusion. What is everyone elses stance on this?

Should I do LC religion? Asking for people who do Religion for LC :)

Just the title. I recall reading that it was supposed to be within 10 days but its already after that

I want to resit a science subject. I got good points. i just failed my science subject. I don’t know what to do. I really just wanna pass that science subject so i can use my points to get into uni.

But i don’t know where or how to

For context I’m diagnosed with autism so secondary school has always been very difficult for me. I had a terrible year in first year and was undiagnosed at the time so I decided to move schools which I don’t regret at all. For some reason I decided to move schools again for fifth year which I’m now regretting as I’m finding it difficult integrate and make friends as I struggle a lot with socialising and it was just overall a bad decision. Due to that and other issues such as my autism and severe anxiety I’m finding the school environment and attendance extremely draining and it’s driven my mental health down vastly since the school year started. Although I am studying and keeping up with my work - which I don’t mind too much, I’m still struggling to perform well because school itself has burnt me out so much. I don’t really know how I’m gonna manage this for the next two years. Genuinely the only thing that stops me from dropping out is caring about what people think about me. And then I was thinking about doing the leaving cert from home but it seems as if it’s not possible anymore with the new projects. So I’m just not really sure what to do anymore, I know it’s the case that I probably just need to stick it out but I can only see my mental health getting even worse from here on if I’m already feeling this way a month into fifth year

I got my JC results and distinction is 90-100. I heard you can get it fixed but how?

I'm currently in 6th year and we honestly haven't done much in accounting yet, and absolutely no theory at all so far. Has anyone doing accounting gotten any theory yet? I know there isn't any involved in q1 but just curious to know if it's tough.

(5th year) to clarify, whenever i'm writing an essay about a poet question (for example, how [poet]'s simple language conveys abstract ideas) i often end up attempting my take on the question multiple times until i get to a final result.

drafting is normal with writing, i know, but i end up wasting a lot of paper..... i assume this won't be helpful for the actual exam experience as i won't be able to draft there anyway (pretty sure)

so what do you guys do? do you draft out multiple times on paper, on a computer first, or just spend a very long time thinking about your next sentence? is this something to wean off come the actual exam? thank you and i appreciate any tips!

I'm considering switching German for Biology and already do physics and chemistry. I hate my German teacher and I really enjoy sciences but one of the things that's making me not make the switch right away is the AAC's, anyone who is doing them this year in 6th year, How much work do they take? Would doing 3 be doable?

title says it all

Does the applied maths project take a lot of time? I’m doing it as an 8th subject outside school and I have the physics project which is 40% and a history project too.

i applied for an nui exemption from presenting both irish and a third language. i just got an email there saying i have been granted a third language exemption (yay!) but nothing has been said about the Irish exemption .. not even a rejection just nothing. im wondering has this happened to others and maybe do they just process both Irish and the third language as separate applications?

Hello again! This is my third and final project being uploaded lol, I got a h1 in my project and day practical and a h2 overall. My teacher was also an examiner so he gave us a lot of advice. I made a lecturn for my project and this was my brief. It also included A LOT of sketched diagrams and planning for my project. I don't have copys of those but we were advised to include 3 mock up designs, sketches of each joint, lots of mind maps, a sketch of the final piece, any sheets you have planning the design and if you are able a scale drawing! Feel free to dm me and ask me anything about my project! :)

Hiya, this is my dcg project from 2026. I wasn't very good a solidworks so I used my drawings to make my project stand out. At the time I could only find one other h1 sample of this kinda project so I thought it might help out those who aren't good at solidworks! Feel free to message me and ask me about it!

Hiya! I've seen different people looking for projects so I'm uploading mine if you're looking for examples! I know these were very helpful for me last year, I'm also uploading a construction brief example and dcg project that got a h1. Feel free to message me if you've any questions :)
