right, well basically i done my leaving cert last year, done real well i tought! i got the points to do primary teaching but i did'nt do honours irish!i done pass and am embarresed to say i spent at max an hour studing for it, not because i disliked it but because i had to concentrate on other areas. anyhow i got a c3, but this year im repeating honours irish, didnt look at it up to xmas, but since then im doen a good bit, its goen ok, got my oral next week, friday i think, im prepared decent enough i guess..,, does anybody no anybody else in this position?is there any chance of me getting a c3 in honours?anybody with any tips for the oral out there either? sorry im new to this whole thing:):)

The Weasel

Ya, id say its defo possible- as long as your prepared to work.. I think that for a C3, if you do a decent oral you should be ok. The written paper to an extent is a memory test. My advice would be to write a few model essays on versatile topics- racisim, the third world/ poverty etc and learn them as best you can (make sure you understand what your learning though)- or at least learn useful vocab- paper 1 is a handy area to pick up marks so practice a few comprehnsions too..:)
