    You have to study 5 pieces of Prose:
    1. Oisín i dTír na n-Óg
    2. An Gnáthrud (or you can do Seal i Neipeal
    3. Hurlamaboc
    4. Dís
    5. Cáca Millis (or you can do An Lasair Choille

    You also have to study 5 poems:
    1. An Spailpín Fánach
    2. Géibheann
    3. Colscaradh
    4. An tEarrach Thiar
    5. Mo Ghrá-sa (idir lúibíní)

    If you do higher level, you also have to study another prose from one of the following:
    1. An Triail
    2. A Thig Ná A Tit Orm
    3. Tóraíocht Dhiarmada agus Ghráinne
    4. Gafa
    5. Canary Wharf
    If I'm not mistaken however, you may only need to study certain sections of these texts, you'd have to check that up.

    There's also a prescribed series of pictures called the Sraith Pictiúr. Each year a series of 20 picture sequences are prescribed and one will come up in the oral. You'll have to discuss the picture sequence and ask/answer a couple of questions on it. Some are tougher than others. These are the ones for 2015 and 2016:
