Great Idea

Hi,
great idea for a blog its difficult to make the decision regarding what subjects to pick for the leaving cert I think its great to get exposure to all subjects if possible before making a final decision. This blog will be beneficial because students can share their experiences and questions. If anyone needs to know anything about the following I did Geography, Biology and Chemistry for my leaving cert.

Breda :o)

Very handy

Sounds like a great idea for a blog!!!Wish it was around when I was doing my leaving!!
Always seemed to miss important information no matter how hard I listened!!With this it's all there!!
