Leaving Certificate results are measured by the number of 'points' awarded to the student.
A number of points between 0 and 100 are awarded to students for each Leaving Certificate exam sat.
Points are awarded for foundation level maths for admission only on some courses.
25 bonus points will continue to be awarded for Higher Level Mathematics for H6 grades and above.
