Leaving Cert Students To Receive Their Results Today
Nearly 59,000 students, including 6,500 in Cork will receive their Leaving Cert results today, either online or at their schools.
The State Examinations Commission says the marks are similar to last year.
But almost 1,600 more students got a 'higher' grade in Irish than in 2018.
There was also a marginal increase in the number of people who got a 'higher' grade in English and maths.
Guidance counsellor Sinead Duffy has this advice to students.
