    Home ec is a really broad subject i think it would be one of the hardest subjects to do in a year, and there is bugger all cooking involved! most people think you make a few apple tarts and get a A.

    As for the project if you have a good teacher that will help you along the way you should get a good mark in it

    i did home ec in 6th year and to be honest i thought it was really hard! my teacher was a total prat and did NOTHING in our class. I pretty much taught myself the course and i got my mum to help me with my special report and ended up getting an a2! thrilled! i'd recommend it if you're willing to put in the hard work! if not, geography is a fairly easy subject to pick up an a1 in!

    im not too worried about the subject content as i spent 2yrs doing science in ucd, and i did a couple of food science modules so most of it will be revision. its just the project that im worried about as i want to get as high a grade as possible.
