The wait is over for students across Laois, Offaly and Westmeath.
Students around the country are receiving their leaving cert results, as the state examinations commission has just opened its portal.
Over 71,000 students sat the Leaving Certificate exams this year, and will have to wait until next Wednesday until course points are released.
Guidance Counsellor, Mullingar's Betty McLaughlin has this advice for students receiving results this morning:
Some are getting their all-important envelopes at schools, while others are expected to access results online.
The State Examinations Commission says 10.1% percent of students received a H1 grade this year, compared with 11.7% last year.
Ordinary level grades also dropped, with just 2.7% of people receiving a top mark.
Its in line with the Government's commitment to gradually reduce the points inflation that resulted after students had to rely on predicted grades during the Covid-19 pandemic.
For the first time more than 300 students with complex learning and development needs are getting results for completing the L1 and L2 Learning Programmes.
Education Minister Hildegarde Naughton says today is a big day for over 70 thousand students:
