Leaving Cert: Positive reaction to ‘very manageable’ higher level Irish paper 2
We’ve had a few queries from students about what happens to their exam scripts once they are handed over – prompted by difficulties many faced in Friday’s Leaving Cert paper 2.The name is derived from the bell-shaped curve on a graph which plots out the distribution of grades achieved by students.
This can involve giving or taking away marks for individual questions if they were “too hard” or “too easy”, based on a sample of scripts being marked.This are the proportion of students who achieved the following grades in 2022:H1 ; H2 ; H3 ; H4 ; H5 ; H6 ; H7 ; H8 . “The three choices in the Prós section contained no grey areas and students with a good understanding of the literature would have been able to give it a great shot. Overall a very straightforward, student centred exam today.”The early verdict from teachers is that Irish paper 2 was much more approachable than yesterday’s paper.subject expert Linda Dolan, Irish teacher at Mercy College, Sligo, said it was a “very manageable” higher level paper.
