The Leaving Cert Maths exams are big beasts! Whether it's Algebra, Trigonometry, Coordinate Geometry, Complex Numbers, Functions, Calculus, Financial Maths or any of those meaty sums.
So we've called in some extra help for you students. Applied Maths and Physics teacher Louise Boylan from the Institute of Education joined Today with David McCullagh for RTÉ Study Hub 2026 to help explain how it all adds up!
One of the main things that Louise wants everyone to remember is that there are no marks for blanks! Always try to write down some of what you know.
