Preston Ó Caoimh

Preston Ó Caoimh is the president of the Irish Second-Level Students’ Union, where he advocates for the rights and concerns of secondary school students in Ireland. Recently, he gained attention for criticizing the random selection process used for college admissions, which he described as 'deeply unfair' to students who have worked hard to achieve maximum points but are then subjected to a lottery system. His comments reflect the frustration of many students facing the challenges of grade deflation and the unpredictable nature of college course allocations.
