    Thanks !:) I don't mind it to be fair but there's only 3 chapters in unit 7 compared to 5 in unit six!!

    Business is a grand oul subject though!

    I love unit 7, only covered it in the last few days and it's such a handy question to have because it's so repetitive! :o

    Ah yeah, fingers crossed we don't get a nasty paper :o

    Actually another question soz!

    Ok so my question to ye guys is what's the difference between the psychology course in UL and the psychology and sociology course in UL ? Are they the same degree ? If I was to get psychology and sociology could I continue on and become a qualified psychologist ?

    Also here is my choices on my cao:
    1: UCD psychology 520 points
    2 DCU psychology 500 points
    3: UL psychology 510 points
    4: UL psychology 490 points

    So If I was to get let's say 515 what's the likelihood of me gettin offered one of these courses?

    Please any advice or opinions are welcomed!

    Haha no problem :pac:

    I do about 5 per poem, but it's a mix of just one or two word ones for examples of language and stuff, and longer ones for making points :o
    Generally it's about 20 per poet, and I'm doing 3 poets :o

    I'm not quite hitting the mark with some poets, but Im doing the thing with the flashcard that somebody (cant remember who) mentioned a few pages back. Writing like Imagery on the back of a flashcard with 4-5 quotes on the front to test myself. Hopefully it will work
    Yeah I'm doing 3 poets too, bit worried about it though.. what 3 are you doing
    I have Heaney Dickinson and Plath

    If I was you I would put Arts in NUIM down there as another option just in case you dont get enough points. Its like 360 and you can do psychology as part of arts for the first year, and if you get over a certain amount in your end of year exams you can move into the pure psychology degree.
    Just to be safe like

    I'd know EU inside out for business, look at the question 3's over the last 10 years. So repetitive.

    I love the EU, once you get the functions of the institutions into your head it's easy peasy :D

    I'm aiming for a B1/A2 hopefully, I've always gotten As but I'm just so worried it won't go well :pac:

    I have Heaney Dickinson and Plath

    Yeah that's what I do :o
    I'm doing Dickinson, Larkin and Yeats, and I have a reasonable knowledge of Bishop and less so of Kinsella incase the exam tries to screw me over :pac:

    Praying to every god there is that Dickinson comes up though :o

    why :( I dont mind A call or Sunlight, but the rest of his poems are just vile.

    Larkin and Dickinson are my hunz, it would be perfect if they both came up and I got to choose :P

    Probably the only one hoping for Kinsella anyway, no one has the time to read His Father's Hands more than once.

    Tbh I'd say only one of them will be up :o
    Larkin is a god though :pac:

    Anybody else worried that more than one poet they like will come up and they won't be able to decide which to do? :o

    Hope this helps, don't know though,

    You need to end up with 11 on the left of both creditor and control. This is the restocking charge. 99 was debited to the creditor and 90 was credited in the control. You then need to get back to only having 11 euro on the credit. So you debit the control account with 79 euro and credit the creditor with 110 euro. Hope this helps. If you need the workings I'll do them out and PM you them

    haha I have the opposite worry that none of mine will :/
    I HATE larkin, I'm indifferent to his poetry but I just cant seem to be able to write about him. Think ill have to know him a bit as a back up though. What do you talk about when youre doing an essay on him??

    Accounting looks like the biggest soul-sucker of a subject. I had a friend doing it last year who summed it up as follows:

    You spend and hour ruling the page,an hour doing the Q,and an hour wondering where the f*ck you went wrong.....

    how he is a pessimist, engages with ordinary events and associates them with complex ideas, quite simple language, doesn't believe in happy endings or love, and well he's just not afraid to say that we are all going to die :P

    I'm repeatedly typing out Macbeth quotes to try and remember them. It's so much quicker than hand writing them. I have revised Supernatural, Evil, Lady Macbeth, Deception and Ambition. Any one have any ideas of what else I should revise for Macbeth?
