CAO Events Calendar- Information for students about what to do if you have not met the Maths grade requirement for a college course. Many third level institutions run special maths exams for anyone who did not achieve the necessary grade in maths. This will provide them with the opportunity to meet the college's minimum entry requirement in relation to the subject. The exam will not be the same as the Leaving Cert exam but the topics will be familiar to the student.
