    Any tips for answering the irish unseen poetry questions?


    ooohh toughie,

    I recommend answering 3 from A & 1 from B

    A is easy enough, as it's pretty much a reading comprehension

    For B, I'd go for the last question, which is usually, "Did the ending/poem appeal to you & why" Talk about maybe a character you liked, or the theme

    Good Luck! ;)

    :confused: Paper 2 Prós Litreacha
    Ceist 1 : Do you do 3 questions total in that question like 2 From A and 1 From B?
    Ceist 2 : You do (i) and (ii) am i right?
    I know what to do in part (i) but not in part (ii) what do i have to learn as im doing Banríon an uaigneas for part (i)

    Filíocht
    Same thing?

    Ceist 1: You do one from A, one from B and your third question can be from either. Whichever you choose.

    Ceist 2: In part (i) you name the title of the story, who wrote it and the theme, and in part (ii) you write the actual answer to the question e.g. your banrion an uaigneas answer etc :)

    Oh yeah, when I said do 3 from A & 1 from B, That was only to make sure you get at least 2 of the 3 questions right, because B is a lot harder

    But you only have to do 3 questions in total,

    My teacher said do 5 and you'll probably get 3 right.

    So you can answer as many questions as you can and get corrected the best?
    Im unsure about this in the Irish exam

    Saw this. http://www.irishexaminer.com/ireland/shock-as-student-dies-on-eve-of-junior-certificate-196439.html
    I remember you posting about hurling on the JC off topic, and your profile says Cork.

    I hope you're ok.
