Data was collected from 30 third-level institutions in the republic and two in Northerrn Ireland partly under Freedom of Information legislation. This data mainly originated in the State Examination Commission and Central Applications Office. Third-level institutions do not stand over its accuracy when used to compile league tables. Data was also collected from Northern Irish universities on admissions from Leaving Certificate students.<\/p>\n<p>In most instances, the data records the school where a candidate sat the Leaving Certificate on their first attempt. A small number of third-level institutions supplied data for both repeat and first-attempt students. . In these instances to reduce the distortion we examined the numbers repeating at each school and made other statistical adjustments. We excluded all external candidates. We also exclude several institutions which specialise in repeat exams. This adjustment means that in some cases those progressing to university and third-level is overstated.<\/p>\n<p><b>Rank<\/b><b>:<\/b> For schools where % at university is the same, % at thrid-level is used to determine their rank in the Parent Power league table.<\/p>\n<p><b>% at university<\/b><b>:<\/b> The number of students from the school, divided by three, who registered in the academic years 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14 with one of the seven universities in the Republic of Ireland, mainstream state run teacher training colleges , the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI), National College of Art &amp; Design (NCAD), or Universities in Northern Ireland for an undergraduate degree-level, full-time course. The number of students who sat the Leaving Certificate \u2013 adjusted for repeat students \u2014 in that school in June 2011 is then divided into this to calculate the percentage for 2011\/12.
