Irish, like British, universities focus on “examination” results, i.e. APs, IBs etc. Extracurriculars etc do not matter.

The big question is why do you want to go to university overseas? Yes, it is exciting and exotic but the reality is that you will not be allowed to stay or work over here once you have graduated, and Americans employers do not recruit over here. So you will find things tougher going back, unless you go to graduate school. I tell students to think very carefully. For 99% of candidates, it is better to wait and student overseas as a graduate student.
