    Business DEB HL:

    Hi Lads,

    My Business teacher told us that
    Business Ethics
    is coming up in HL, I'm pretty sure its on the Debs exam papers as they are the only ones she uses.

    <no requests>

    I was reading the first few posts and cant make out if
    Caca Millis and Idir Lubini etc
    is for OL or HL? Please state the level because its pretty confusing and frustrating.

    Cheers :)

    Our school is doing DEB mocks aswell, mine aren't till next week but I have a fair few spoilers for those papers!

    English paper 2 (HL) DEB:
    Poets are Bishop, Mahon, Shakespeare and Hopkins. Comparative questions are Cultural Context and Themes and Issues.

    Home ec (HL) DEB:
    Marrage and family structures is a definate question, so is microbiology (food spoilage and preservation part of the Q). Social elective will be a mixture of poverty, work and education. O1 is a macronutrient from what i've heard either protein or lipids.

    Irish (OL) DEB:
    Caca mílis summary and how the woman feels in Dís for the pros. Spailpín fanach and colscardh are the poems the letter is about declining an invite to a concert.

    Biology (HL) DEB:
    The eye, kreb cycle, study of an ecosystem, nitrogen cycle, plants and reproduction (not sure which one)

    <no requests>

    Police Tape Chalk Line
    Registered Users Posts: 7 ✭Police Tape Chalk Line


    Our Irish (OL) teacher told us that
    what came up on last years Leaving Cert in definatly not on the Mocks, so that rules out Hurlamaboc, Oisin, Geibheann and An tEarrach Thiar.
    Not sure which papers they're off, but a lot our other teachers are using DEBS papers, so possibly from the same company?

    English (HL) I would assume
    Cultural Context for the Comparative Studies, considering the fact our teacher hasn't covered anything else with us!! Probably Bishop and Hopkins for the poetry, because our teacher has a bad habit revising whats coming up on the exam the week before the exam is, and we've spent all this week covering Bishop, and we're revising Hopkins next week.
    Not sure about the company again, possibly DEBS?

    <no requests>

    As a teacher I'd just like to give a word of warning to students, because of the amount of prediction/copying on the mocks we ordered three sets this year and will be giving a combination (maths). While the spoilers may help don't be surprised if some of them aren't on your papers. Best of luck to you all.

    Just finished my mocks there lads. I think I got one A, three B's, one C, one D and definitely failed maths.

    Take my advise though. DO NOT STRESS.

    Because of nerves and everything else that goes along with exams, I woke up at 6.30 Monday 6.05 Tuesday 5.20 Wednesday 4.45 Thursday and 5.50 yesterday. That's about ten hours sleep I lost, which really fecked me over. I had a mental breakdown of sorts during Biology because of a combination of a lack of sleep and nerves. I knew the material, but I left 45 minutes early, and I 'm hoping to survive from failing by scraping a D :( (that and the fact I tried to study 14 chapters in 2 and a half hours which didn't exactly work too well for me)

    The teachers don't expect you to do well. You're preparing for June, not Janurary/ February. So don't freak out if you're not ready, because to be honest, you shouldn't be. Do NOT do what I did for Biology and cram like it's life or death. And remember, no matter how bad you think you're doing, there's always someone who is in a worse position.

    It's cluttering the thread - if everyone asks for their own individual lists, everyone will post up seven or eight of a very limited list of subjects. We're on page 12 now and how many actual spoilers have been posted?

    What we need is people to start posting spoilers (along with the company involved), otherwise we have a thread full of lists from new posters.

    This thread is getting really chaotic compared to last year's one.

    Examcraft English Paper 2 Macbeth Question:
    Nope, it's a question asking about the roles Lady Macbeth and the witches have to play in his downfall i.e he is ultimately responsible for his own downfall.

    do u do chemistry if u do
    can u please tell me whats on it.......................................................

    you don't really need spoilers on chemistry. your teacher should have told you about the layout or even if you look back on other papers you will see the trend.
    NO.1 is one of the titrations
    NO.2 is one of the organic experiments (ethanal, ethanoic acid, ethanol, etc)
    NO. 3 is the other experiments (anions, flame test etc.)
    N0. 4 is random definitons
    always a question on fuels and thermochem
    always a question on periodic table
    allways a question on equilibrium/rates
    always a question on water/pH/indicators/Acids and bases
    there is the 8 questions which if you know all that you will get 100%
    you see, there really is no need for spoilers.
    best of luck studying. i have to study chemistry all day tomorrow.
