Following fallout over Leaving Cert maths paper 1, how will students fare with maths paper 2?
many students found Leaving Cert maths paper 1 exceptionally challenging and upsetting:
Easily the hardest exam I’ve ever done lmao. Was going for a H1 now I have to get 100% in paper 2 not too fail the entire Leaving Cert lmao— Fionnster FIONNSTER FIONNSTER Others felt the paper was unfair to students and didn’t bear much reflection to previous exams ... Have done every maths paper 1 from the last 8 years and absolutely none were as hard as that. Last year got an easy test and got on well and we’ve paid the price.On foot of this, we asked the State Examinations Commission for a comment on the process around how the exam was set.
“Such correspondence is brought to the attention of the chief examiner and is considered in the refinement of the draft marking scheme. The approach taken by the SEC to the development of the final marking schemes ensures consistency in the marking and fairness to candidates. The final marking scheme will be published, as will the marking schemes in all other subjects, after the issue of the Leaving Certificate results.
