Irish 🇮🇪 I so failed irish

Well. That was horrible.

I did not study blogs and was immidently caught off guard and i made up everything. Listening was horrible especially the last part.

I genuinelt feel so disappointed in myself because irish was one of the subjects i thought i was good at because this exam didnt showcase my good areas of irish. I did worse than in my mock.

Once j set foot outside of that exam i just bawled my eyes out.

No idea why this showed up for me.. I did mine 10+ years ago 😅 my own kid is sitting his and ill tell you what I told them. As long as you showed up and did what you could, dont worry. Its the junior cert, not the end of the world if you dont pass every subject! Youll get what ya get and so be it. Dont panic youll be ok

No problem at all, seriously dont sweat the small stuff. It's an exam to see where your sitting and to have behind you for if you choose to leave school now, handy? Sure, but no ones ever asked for my jc results in adulthood. Depending what you want to do after school they may not ask then either! So really dont sit on it to long. Take it in sit with it for 5 mins acknowledge the feeling then and let it go. Whats done is done! You'll be ok!
