Picking Leaving Cert subjects by which teacher you like isn't a strategy.
A short interest assessment that identifies the subjects most likely to suit you, before you're locked into senior cycle — useful whether you're weighing a UL, TUS or MIC route or something else entirely. With an AI-written summary and a certificate.
Subject choice usually happens faster than it should
For most students, choosing Leaving Cert subjects is a rushed decision made in a few weeks of third year — based on timetable clashes, what a friend is doing, or which teacher is well-liked, more often than on genuine interest.
That rushed decision matters more than it looks here. The subjects a student drops at 15 can quietly close off routes into Raheen's medtech and biopharma employers, or into a place on one of LCETB's seven Limerick FET campuses — years before anyone's thinking about CAO forms or apprenticeship applications.
The Subject Choice Test gives that decision a proper starting point: a structured look at what actually interests you, translated into the subject areas most likely to suit you, well before the choice needs to be locked in.
Three steps, about 10 minutes

“I had a rough idea of the areas I was interested in but had no idea which actual courses suited me. CourseCompass helped connect the different things I was interested in with real courses. I came away with a much clearer idea of what I should be looking into.”
“I went into the test without really knowing what I wanted to do. The results gave me a few different options and, more importantly, made me think about what I actually enjoy and what I could see myself doing. It definitely made researching my CAO choices easier.”
“As a parent, it can be difficult to know how much to get involved when your child is choosing their CAO courses. CourseCompass gave us something useful to discuss together and helped explain why certain courses might suit them. It was a good starting point for having that conversation.”
