Galway Bay fm newsroom – Many students across Galway now have two leaving cert exams under their belts this evening – as the first day of this year’s examinations drew to a close in the past hour.
There are over Leaving Cert 3,200 students across Galway this year – though many will not be sitting some of the exams, while others will sit no exams at all.
That’s because they have the option of sitting an exam, taking a calculated grade, or a combination of both, on a subject by subject basis.
For example, the first exam this morning was English Paper I – and 30 percent of students nationwide opted for calculated grades only.
