    Ok so I changed down to foundation level Irish on monday after getting 29% for my ordinary irish pre. So my oral was changed to Friday the 27th March (tomorrow). Thing is I've got no clue what comes up in the foundation oral because my teacher hasn't been in school all week to let me know what comes up. Can anyone give me some advice or tips?

    ummm... I had my honors oral today and the questions were pretty easy like my area, family, past times etc. so for foundation I presume its just general irish that you'd know anyway like ".....Is anim dom"

    sorry, theres no foundation in my school.

    Guy in my class doing it. Think you have modules or something. Examiner can't stray away from what is in these modules, i.e. they have to ask the questions that are on the page or something of that nature. Basic stuff I think. You should be grand if you were practising for ordinary level irish oral.

    A girl in my year is doing it, and afaik the examiner gets a list of questions and that's all they can ask, as the above people have said they are the basic questions.

    Also you'll be going last out of your year for your orals (presuming there's no other foundation level students), just to let you know.
