    The school would have to have money to burn too. Perhaps in the schools where they charge students to do mocks this might work, but generally, the exam paper companies give all sorts of discounts if a school gives them all their business. They also torment the schools for repeat business year to year.

    Wait some schools don't charge students? We had to pay like €100 each

    Papers are free if you've paid registration in my school, all we pay for is corrections. So roughly €60/€70. They're totally free in my girlfriend's school though because they're corrected internally. So yes, it can happen! But it's down to the school! All mocks cost money, it's who pays that makes the difference!

    We used to always correct in-house and we never charged our students anything. Considering many of them had medical cards and thus wouldn't be paying to sit the JC or LC, it would have been a bit rich to charge them for the mocks, the value of which is debatable.

    With about 80-90 students sitting each set of mocks it used to cost our school about €2800 for the exam papers and stationery.

    The computer room could have used that extra money.

    Okay our teacher basically gave us a lowdown of the EXAMCRAFT GEOGRAPHY HL paper:
    Physical:
    igneous and sedimentary rocks
    limestone/carbonation/limestone pavement
    waterfall
    ox bow lake
    plate tectonics
    volcanoes
    human interaction (didnt specify rock or water)

    Regional:
    2 impacts joining the EU had on a member state
    primary India
    European
    possibly contrast 2 irish regions (not 100%)

    Human:
    Overpopulation
    population density and distribution
    urbanisation
    developing cities

    Geoecology:
    Biome (she said something about they give you 3 factors to discuss)
    Soil processes (again something about being given specific processes to discuss).
    This is just a guideline and not all of these may come up and there will be stuff up that I didnt mention. Also I may not be 100% right but its a good place to start.

    I go to a school where they are corrected internally and we still have to pay €25, aswell as this we get some from DEB and some from Examcraft.....and we're a DEIS school, total joke.

    I did mine today. There were barcodes at the back and in front of the paper. I think it was on the top left in front. I am sorry I really am not sure. I looked at it the moment I got my paper but I suddenly can't remember.

    SECTION I
    About friendships.
    Questions:
    the girl didn't have many friends in her old school but when she moved, she made friends.
    you have to know: "Nous pouvons compter les uns sur les autres"

    SECTION II
    about travel
    questions:
    date (it is the in the first sentence so watch out)
    how have they decided to travel
    country
    etc


    SECTION III
    -guy and girl talking
    guy failed the exam and he's afraid that he might do the lc again. his friends are going on holidays.
    the girl is not allowed to go on holiday with her friends cos her parents says that her friends drink a lot.

    SECTION IV
    -about a fireman
    questions:
    what are their functions..I'm not sure but I think it was to save the victims, protect the environment from chemical blahblah. I found this section difficult.
    Learn your numbers as well.


    SECTION V
    reports:
    a fight happened in a parking lot.
    weather
    a man dove into water
    he couldn't be found afterwards


    NOTE: Confirmed that this is from DEB.
