Richard Hogan: 'My son's not putting in the work with his Leaving Cert'

We don’t know what to do - he won’t get points for medicine and I know that will devastate him. Can you please give us some advice?

Dear Richard, 

I have been reading your articles for many years and need your help, my son is in 6th year and about to do his Leaving Certificate this summer. I don’t know what to do.
