A decision on a legal challenge taken against the process used to calculate Leaving Cert results last year is due to be delivered today.
The action, taken by student Freddie Sherry from Celbridge, Co Kildare, is a test case, with up to sixty other cases waiting on today’s outcome.
He missed out on pharmacy at TCD after the 542 points estimated by his teachers at Belvedere College was reduced to 487 under grade standardisation.
Freddie claims the decision to wipe his school’s previous track record from the process resulted in his grade being unfairly downgraded.
But lawyers for the state say there was no reason for him to believe he would have done better if that data was included.
