    So how is everyone planning to handle the free time this weekend?
    Are you going to concentrate on a Monday subject or a weaker later subject?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19 florencexxx


    I'm going for my later subjects today (French and History) and then for the rest of the weekend pure maths and Irish. Ughhhh even the thought of learning off stair for Irish 2 is killing me right now. x__x


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,283 ✭✭✭PrivateEye


    Irish II= the best way to kill a beautiful language in the eyes of entire generations.

    O' Cadhain and Mac Piaras would be delighted with the way their names have become associated with such a pile of rubbish. As for An Triall, I'd like to put the entire department of education on front of a courtroom for forcing us to sit through such a woeful exam.

    *Irish speaker, all my love...love Irish. As in the language, not the subject. Don't be put off, please :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 124 ✭✭Caoimhe89


    I wish I could say sleeping...

    Nope History tomorrow, all day, and Sunday morning. Maths II sunday afternoon. And then lunch on Monday I'll have a look over some stuff for Irish Paper I...

    Ha ha.. there's clearing a very big failing in whole Irish curriculum when after at least 13 years of studying the vast majority of us can barely ask for much more than a pint of milk.
    It's a scandal that they haven't devised more effective methods after so many years of malign.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 64 ✭✭melboix


    A lot of History and Irish...probs some Maths somewhere along the way...French and Bio are being forgotten about sadly. I figure French is bluffable or a lost cause depending on what's asked and well...Bio's gonna involve an all-nighter methinks. Should be wild, me, tea & photosynthesis. Best way to spend a night!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13 xox Sarah xox


    ha wow makes you wish ya studied doesnt it :p

    Il be doing the same maths p2 and irish grammar and letters Sat.
    Then more maths p2 on sunday, irish and squeeze in some art history if I can!

    God its gonna be such a relief to be finished at the end I cant wait :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 137 ✭✭lovechem


    Did a bit of Maths and Irish tonight. Not very productive tho.

    Doing Biology with my Dad tmw morning from 8am-1pm, DELICIOUS :( Gonna try do a couple of listening tests for French and Irish. My French listening is a pretty good standard but my Irish is terrible! Probably will have to do a lot of work for Maths paper 2 after that b*tch of a paper today, but sure what can ya do?! And then I suppose more Gaeilge and French. Can't waiiiiiiiiit to have Maths done.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 232 ✭✭boobookitty


    I'm leaving French until the day before.

    Tomorrow consists of History, Irish (Tape and both Papers) French tape, Biology and Maths. Same for Sunday.

    Whch books did you do for History on your course?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,536 ✭✭✭Mark200


    I plan to study maths paper 2 and business. I think I'll do well enough if I leave my study for Irish (OL) paper 2 until Monday night. Then I have a two day break before german, and the weekend between german and physics. I might study for ordinary level German for a few hours the day before. The rest I will spend studying physics because it was the only subject I failed in my mocks and German will probably be the subject I don't include for points anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,975 ✭✭✭W.Shakes-Beer


    Biology for me mainly, a little bit of Irish and French :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 111 ✭✭jessie11


    business and maths mainly...
    its 2 late for me to aim for high mark in irish...im not gonna count it!

    I agree, even during the Pres I would come home and be shattered. And to think after the long day of French and History, I get to study Bio and Art!
    Crap. :(

    My plan has changed, I'm going to wing Maths Paper 2. Instead focus on Irish, History and Biology taking huge gambles.

    Okay I thought I would spend the weekend studying with all my weak subjects on this week but I decided to go out which you can read about if you want. I never thought I would go out during the leaving cert as I hadn't being going out coming up to it but to be honest it did me the world of good mentally. Again I haven't been studying today only chilling out with friends but that I shouldn't have done... ah well. This evening and tomorrow I will do as much I possible! :D Irish, Business, History especially.

    I'm probably missing a joke here, but... berlioz is definitely going to come up, since you have a question on each of the set works.
    (I really it's the long question though.)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 124 ✭✭Caoimhe89


    .... I just realised I left all my stuff for maths paper two at school. Oh sh*t. That screws up monday morning for me....

    Just go through the solutions on www.examinations.ie and you should be fine

    That reminds me - they really need a better access format than 'choose single item, then wait for next opition to load up'.
    It's not difficult to embed all the drop-down menus on one single-load page.
