I usually write about 3, but i wrote 4 and a bit today because the titles were just so nice i could write about so much!

Yes also wrote 4 and a bit . If you want an a1 then you need to write more than 500 to 600 anyways .

For the essay can we agree or disagree?
I disagreed and wrote against one of the topics and now I fear it wil be considered off topic.

I'm worried about whatever trick the SEC are playing with that listening exam...

I did the bochtanas essay, think im the only one in my room who didn't do young people, except another girl who did the gaeilge oraid :P

I was going to do the bochtanas essay but I didnt have enough prepared on Ireland specifically so I did the young people one instead

Wrote a 5 page, tiny writing, rant about everything you could possibly think of :pac: Spent 45 minutes alone just planning the yoke :cool:

Yeah i'm more looking for a B, but i'm willing to try for the A! I need a C3 to get into my course but I need a higher grade to get the points for my course!

It's just a statement so you can state it and be like "I don't think this is true because...."

Pretty sure you do, like they cant force an opinion on you, what if you didnt agree with any of them or something :pac:

Well it's not a personal essay either .
I'd imagine it's grand to give either side of story

Ugh, I had the perfect essay to do that but decided to agree with the statement just to be on the safe side

Disagreeing is not wrong presuming you didnt disagree and then go off on a tangent.

That listening test was ridiculously easy. The French listening is far more difficult, no doubt about that. I thought the pace was humorous at times, especially for the "Scoláire na Bliana". Painfully slow!

My top two aistes appeared, bochtanas and Gaeilge, but I did the Gaeilge one as I felt I could include the title more which is essential for an A1. I mentioned the Germans (who you were giving the speech too) in a bunch of places too and it just seemed to flow very nicely. I honestly have never written a better piece before!

An mbeidh páipéir a dó chomh easca? Is maith an scéalaí an aimsir! :pac:

I did the exact same, did the one about younger years of your life, said I disagree & wrote about all the problems of young people, do you think I will get any marks? I was counting on the media & then had problems of young people ready also.

That's exactly what I done too, but from the looks of it I'm sure we'll be marked as usual

It'll be fine, trust me
As long as you kept referring back to the title :pac:

If you regularly referenced the title then you'll definitely get marks. Like if you said "... dá bharr, níl saol foirfe ag daoine óga" (can't remember the exact title of the aiste) then you'll be grand as long as you weren't regurgitating random pieces of information.

Anyone else think it'll be Spailpín and Cáca tomorrow?

iamthestig

What's everyone's thoughts for tomorrow?

Also anyone have an ideas for An Triail? I'm clueless about that!
