    Hey guys, I'm wondering could someone answer a couple of questions I have regarding the stuff that can come up on higher level Irish paper 2 because I have a lousy teacher who hasn't talked to us about it and our pre paper is on Wednesday. :eek:

    For question 1 - A (Prós ainmithe), what can come up?

    For question 2, do you only have to do 1 section (A, B, C, or D)?

    For question 3 - A (Filíocht ainmithe), what poems can come up?

    For question 3 - B (Dánta dualgais breise), what can come up?

    Any help would be really appreciated because our teacher has left us in a bad position and I don't really know what to study for paper 2. :(

    Thanks guys.

    i don't fully understand what you mean by what could come up. is it the names of the stories/poems you're looking for... or the type of questions that they ask? and for q.2 it depends what you studied. I did Maidhc Dainín, and i know that An Triail is another choice. you also have to do stair na gaeilge!

    I mean the name of the poems/stories. SNG isn't really a problem because I have notes for that section. I just need a list of all the poems/ stories.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the help. It kind of depressed me though because there's 6 of them we still haven't touched :(.
    Also that "big play of story you studied"? We got a 2-page hand-out on it! And that didn't even have notes on it. It just had a synopsis of the story. :mad: I hate having sh^t teachers. So unfair :(
