    I dont know if this will help at the moment , or if you could even get away with it but i remeber being told about an easy way to get good marks in an english ( or maybe irish ) essay.

    you know the way race horses have weird names ???

    well write an amazing essay before the exam about a race horse , and double check it to make sure its a top notch essay , then learn it off by heart

    then , whatever essay title comes up in the exam , that is the name of the race horse in your essay

    anybody ever try anything like this ?

    Haha, yeah, there are ways of twisting the topics to almost anything really. Just learn off any amazing essay and you can almost always get away with it somehow.

    l do wonder how good your essay needs to be to get you full marks though at Junior Cert level, in class l've often tried to write something different but never got marked much higher than the alien-invasion stories with the mediocre language.

    Why didn't I hear about this earlier?
    It could have saved me writing a 4 1/2 page essay on a nazi camp (!)

    That's not a bad idea actually, though looking over the English paper there don't seem to be any that would work. A horse called The Rudest Person I Ever Met??

    Pretty good name for a horse actually, haha.... you could explain it's a feisty horse that's always tackling the others during the race :p
