Leaving Cert Students React To Maths Paper 1

Leaving Cert students began their first Maths paper this afternoon, after completing the Geography exam this morning. After being messed with in their English paper 1 exam, with paper 2 material, the LC students are feeling insecure about what the SEC might throw at them for their Maths paper 1 exam.

Maths Paper 1 usually consists of sections of sequences, algebra, patterns, calculus and intregration, just to name a few. It's usually in Paper 2 where more of the tougher questions come up, like probability, statistics, area and volume, trig, and geometry.

LC students are under a lot of pressure over the last few days with a lot of the tougher exams being squeezed into three days. It seems like it all might be getting to them a bit too soon in the game.

So since the SEC put paper 2 questions on paper 1 English I’m scared for maths ?? #LeavingCert pic.twitter.com/G8yJzQxaIC

#LeavingCert how likely are theorems from paper 2 to sneak their way into paper 1? The actual maths idm crossing over but the theorems ?

Once again the reviews are quite mixed on how the exam went, but it's still hilarious watching Leaving Certs analyse how they did, whether its good or bad.

I’d rather brush my teeth with toothpaste and drink orange juice straight after than taking another look at that maths paper 1 ever again. #leavingcert #leavingcert2018
