Geography marking was much tougher than expected

THE marking of the higher Geography paper was much tougher than expected, according to some students in Kerry.

“That seems to be the general reaction. The paper was definitely marked hard. You could write 25-30 pages and get a C1 or a B3”, said Fergus O’Donoghue after getting his results at St Brendan’s College, Killarney.

Overall however, he was happy with his results which were very much as he expected and should qualify him for a quantity surveying course in Limerick IT.
