Leaving Cert Geography is the second most popular optional Leaving Cert subject in Ireland. Approximately, 27,000 students take LC Geography every year. Of this number, 80% take it at higher level.
Leaving Cert Geography consists of four (O.L) or five (H.L) sections which make up the written examination + a fieldwork project. The exam is worth 80% of the marks and the fieldwork is worth 20%. The fieldwork is looked at in more detail in the Fieldwork section. All students, whether H.L or O.L will submit a fieldwork project, which is handed up in April of the Leaving Cert year.
