PLAN B LISTEN BACK: HOW TO DEAL WITH POST LEAVING CERT AND CAO OFFERS STRESS WITH SPUNOUT

CAO Offers Stress This week was the week many students were counting down to as they received their Leaving Cert results and CAO Offers. After a tumultuous year due to COVID-19, the Leaving Cert was postponed until November 2020, with students given calculated grades if they didn't wish to sit them. This year also saw the government increase course places, however this has lead to increased demand and a rise in the points required for certain courses. All of this makes what has already been a tough year even harder on those students.   View this post on Instagram   Results night will be different for many students this year. Keep the guidelines on social gatherings in mind when deciding what to do tonight. If you're planning on drinking, make sure to look after yourself & your friends.
