Points in Junior Cert don't go toward Uni places but the grades you get in JC decide what classes and what Level you do in Leaving cert. RE is compulsory in my daughters school but I think it depends on the school itself to decide that. I'm not sure what the story is with Leaving cert exams in it, I must find out though
