    i have a phonetic guide to reading the poems in the oral exam but I know there is a website somewhere that has videos of all the poems on the course being read aloud.

    Does anybody know the name of this site ?

    Can anyone tell me if you are allowed to bring in your own copy of the poems into the Irish Oral with you?

    And is it okay to have the pronounciations written in to help you???

    My Oral is tomorrow in 2 days and i am an external student so I have no teacher to ask


    Thanks!!!!

    Yes, thats perfectly fine. :) I think they have to be printed, not written, though - I heard that and didnt risk it, and my printed versions were fine. :)

    I'm an oral examiner. Yes, you can bring in any kind of copy of the poems with anything written on it, pertaining to the poems of course. You can't bring in the cartoons, they're given to you. Ádh mhór!

    They don't care what it's like, but you need to have some sort with you. The examiner doesn't provide poems. But it's sound, because they don't look at yours, so write the stuff in phonetically and your set. Mine was today and went grand
