Cork twin sisters received identical Leaving Cert results
The twins both earned 578 points following their Leaving Cert exams last year
Sarah and Rachel were recognised for their achievements at the Cork ETB Ceremony in The Rochestown Park Hotel last month. They are pictured at the Student of the Year Awards Ceremony receiving their Ted Owens Medals from John Fitzgibbon, director of Further Education and Training Cork.
When Leaving Cert results day rolled around last August, a set of twin sisters from north Cork discovered that not only had they each scored highly in their exams, but that they had gotten identical results.
Rachel and Sarah Kiely, 19-year-old twin sisters from Ballygraddy in Kilbrin, each earned an admirable 578 points in their Leaving Cert, a feat which amazed their former teachers at Coláiste Treasa in Kanturk and their family and friends.
