    I wouldn't drop, not now anyway, you still have plenty of time, also if you feel you're not ready for the higher paper, you can always drop down on the day of the exam. Also, for leaving cert, I presume it goes for JC aswel, if you get 38%, you pass, they give you out a sheet at the rechecks to tell you that it's common practice to give a student a D3 if they manage to get 38%, so the main thong now is just to get working that little bit extra for June, good luck and I wish you all the best for the exams

    Gleek, if you will work and do study between now and the exams, then there is no need to drop down. Dropping down can also limit you when choosing your subjects for LC.

    Work hard for the time that is left, and remember that you can always drop down on the day of the exam. 38% is only two per cent off a pass - so if you work hard and study you will pass them!
