nice one, cheers! i'd say ya did some work now! hoping to get an 'a' in it as it's one of my more favourable subjects as the work aint too heavy.

anybody have any ideas for ordinary irish regarding the stories n poetry??:)

Could'nt agree more I love geography but if I'm ever stuck for a point I always bring in my own knowledge into it, for instance we had a exam question on overpopulation, had to get 15 srp's so I started going on about what I knew on tokyo and the netherlands and mali (saying how its underpopulated) etc and got full marks while the rest of the class were complaining to the teacher about not having enough srp's in the notes and thats why they done badly.

Course if your stuck you could just as easily make up figures (assuming there not to retarded and you'll get the points)

Thats why geography is easily one of the best subjects to do for the Lc. It actually rewards some intelligence and common sense, plus its pretty easy if you have a head for random facts.

i was thinking of giving grinds in Accounting. Do you think there is much of a market? Are many of your friends getting accounting grinds? and if so, what areas are people struggling in?

Yuugib

My friend seems to be struggling in accounting, she just doesnt seems to get why the figures and things go where they supposed to go, if u know what i mean.
I tried to help her, but unfortunately it didnt work out well )

The rest of the class are not in the better position, we have two classes in the year and there is only about 5 of us aming for a1.. so khm.. anyways i think there is deffinitely market for it, as long as u can explain it well :P

Has any1 any geography or history predictions?? Ur all very good at the phychic thing

Corruptedmorals

English- whichever female/Irish poets that aren't Plath or Montague. Question B's- difficult, to make up for last year's ridiculously easy smoking ban letter..woo that was great. Question A's, a language question, there weren't any last year.

History- probably more of an emphasis on the easy topics Hitler etc. than the abstract ones that were all over the paper last year. The topic thing- 1913 strike and lockout, or possibly the 1885/6 elections if they want to be mean.

Geography- a fecking language/religion question instead of 'migration' in the option. Similar to last year..it's pretty difficult to deviate. Yes, make up stuff to get the SRP quota, as long as it sounds right.

Doing 7 poets is ridiculous, obviously other parts of the course are being neglected. Out of the long questions, it's worth the least. We did 5, I focused on 2, one came up (Plath).

natrisioga

Just wondering if anybody has any ideas on the topic that will be asked in the Irish music essay section of the music paper!?

gaeilgegrinds

Do 5 poets...not 4

Iano2K8

Okay.... english.....

Boland i reckon for the woman poet... did rich as well but doubt it cos shes on for the next 3 years... Larkin and Mahon n possibly Donne as well

Accounting...

Cash flow is too easy for a hundred marker....
dont be shocked if manufactor doesnt come up.... sole trader is possible.... manufactor came up in 1997,2001,2005 and predictively not again until 2009....

Club accounts n published... n maybe suspense as 100 marker.

Job costing has to come up in section three...

Irish... reckon lig sinn i gcathu n clare sa speir... n fiche bhlian ag fas..

Nil aon ni hopefully not...

Honours... Oiche Nollaig Na mban & B'fheidir aris dar gcumman...

Yuugib

aw we havent done job costing yet
Marginal costing has a high chance of comming up as well.. god i hope its going to be either it or production budget btw i cant remeber if a wrote about the depreciation accounts.. well they have the highest chance of comming up

and one more qs that had been bothering me for ages now.. u know the way teachers write mock papers.. well .. do they actually take into account the stuff that had came up already? or they can just put whatever they want?

Iano2K8

Job Costing is so easy! We have only ever done 2 exam questions and basically they throw the 80 marks at ya!

Teachers i think put on what they think has the highest chance of coming up in the real thing... that what my teachers told us anyways....

DAEDULUS

oh dear i love this thread

DAEDULUS

this thread shouldnt fall, predictions give us more motivation

hatrickpatrick

I hope Donne comes up in English, his poetry's the best by far of any of the poets...

Classical Studies - my teacher is widely tipping the Parthenon in Temples and the battle of Granicus for Alexander... Anyone agree?

From what I've heard, in history (for the documents):
Vietnam War - most likely by far, Bus Boycott running a very close second, and, apparently, the moon landings are almost certain NOT to come up...

betsymagoo

hey anyone got any ideas for honours irish... poetry, history or the novel question depending on which you do....

we are doing maidhc dainin... not very exciting fella but there is very little that can be asked really...
- Ireland, England and the State in the 50s and 60s
- People that influence Maidhc
- His Youth
- Relationship with his parents
- Racism in the States....

Aw now decided on economics few weeks ago, my 4 qs will be :

1. Elastisity
2. Demand + Cost
3. National Income
4. International Trade

other than that
5. FOP with capital and possibly enterprise.. hm well if they are to be v. mean they ll stick it in land
6. Money and Banking

Anyways that just me will be writing later with more subj

1huge1

I hope Eaven Boland comes up, find her fair easy for some reason

Daysha

English - Mahon, Boland, Larkin, Donne. First 2 are near definites, 50/50 for the others

History - I'd love either Vietnam or the Moon Landing for the document question, im not too pushed about the bus boycott. But theres no way of predicting which one they'll go for.

French - I wouldnt be surprised if drugs came up. It was all over the news around the time they were making up the papers

Music - Surely they wouldn't go for another minor melody!?

To be honest, I completely gambled my poets in 6th year:

every year, 1 female poet always shows up on the paper on the day.

We had the fortune of only having 2 female poets on the course that year.

Actually I think both of them showed up on the paper in a bizarre twist... it was 2006 if you want to check up on that yourself. I remember doing Dickinson, iirc.

I loved Economics! Picked it up in 6th year and scored a B2 Theres no reason for economics I wouldnt study the reccomended number of questions: no point in gambling - it was all so lovable

Economies of Scale is another one you should consider though.

Fad

i hope to god Bishop comes up when i do the leaving (next year) i love her poems so far

Yuugib

Aw yes economies of scale will come up in the market structure i think.. awww well we'll see

For chemistry Benzoic acid have a high chance of comming up in the mocks who ever wants that info, and then acid+base titrations.. thats what they say in the school anyway

1huge1

why does everyone think boland is coming up?
I hope your right but how do ya know

SRFC90

if we only have to answer on 1 poet, im gonna study boland and mahon really really well (seen as they're tippped to come up), n others not as detailed? would that make sense or is it a little foolish?

PurpleFistMixer

It's foolish in the sense of, if neither of those come up you're screwed. You've only to answer on 1, but only 4 out of the 8 come up on the paper. It's up to you though, I believe a fair number of people make the gamble.

Accounting:
S1 - Sole Trader/Manufacturer
S2 - Ratio/Published/Club
S3 - Marginal Costing/Flexible Budget

Economics:
Capital/Enterprise
Elasticity/Demand
Monopoly/Oligopoly

There my guess' anyway.

Yuugib

English is not one of my best subj so i m guessin i m just going to read over Donne, Boland (which i have no idea why ppl like so much ), Plath, Frost, Montague.. havent done anything else so far..

aw how re the comparison going btw? theme/ cultural? whats it going to be?)
