    i would definetly agree with this as i am also repeating! :/ da mocks dont count for anything! learning all the spoilers and at the end of the day you come out with brill results but no actual idea of what you may get in august with your results.. and end up not getting the course you want for your own stupid mistakes.

    Oh yeah I know, just meant that I don't know whether that's any better or worse than Examcraft or whatever :o

    it's up to yourself whether or not to look at spoilers. . i know we shouldn't but it's hard sometimes not to be tempted.

    English Examcraft
    Plath is on. don't know the question but seriously it should be enough of a spoiler

    I'm down to do every single subject I'm taking as a higher mock. The word, 'screwed' applies here.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 8,572 Mod ✭✭✭✭Canard


    Sure its not that hard :P Just study enough for them! Maths/Irish are the only HL ones to worry about unless you do history like me :o

    Makes no difference, they both have equally little in common with the SEC papers. Timing is really the only thing the mocks are useful for.

    I'm looking for hints on:

    HL Irish
    HL Economics
    HL Maths
    HL English
    HL Spanish
    HL Home Economics
    HL Biology

    Do you know if the HL Irish paper is
    based on the pass paper?
    If so An tearrach thiar, and Mo ghrá-sa were hinted at.
    essay: Oideachas
    An Trial: characters

    English:
    Poetry: **Sylvia Plath
    Hamlet: Soliloquies
    The role of women

    Biology:
    **Reproduction



    I'd majorly appreciate any help on Irish and home ec in particular?

    :pac:....:D

    Four sent our school brochures.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 29,509 Mod ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn


    About 3 / 4 I think ... DEB, Examcraft, Munster Examining Board, and I think there's another one. Some schools will order different subjects from different companies to confuse students trying to get hints.

    Plus many teachers don't use the companies anyway ... they set their own papers.

    Em I think an essay about
    recession or problems in Ireland

    Mod note: Spoiler 'em! Even if it's just a guess, unless you make it *very clear* that you're just making a wild guess.

    What about the 'dictatorship and democracy in Europet', 'pursuit of sovereignty and impact on partition', and 'movements for political and social reform'? Much appreciated but I don't do the section you mentioned.
