It is just a few days until thousands of students sit down to begin their Leaving Certificate examinations.
For many teens, they have an idea of the career they want to pursue.
But does a disappointing result shape your future? Or is there more than one pathway to your desired destination?
We asked several well-known faces from the RTÉ newsroom to share their recollections of the Leaving Cert with us, including David McCullagh, Sharon Tobin, Brian O’Donovan and Sarah McInerney.
Now it’s the turn of Eastern Correspondent Samantha Libreri to take a trip down memory lane and tell us how she didn’t let a disappointing result stop her from getting her dream job.
Watch our video to hear Samantha reflect on the ‘Leaving Cert and Me’.
