    Leaving Certifiacte poerty notes by edco is very good. I have it for higher level but they do ordinary level too. I like it, it shows all the "deep meaning" of poem that you never see yourself.

    I would only say for the others not to get less stress more success, it very annoyng. For most subjects I find that to get a book proper is good. If you do not have it faoimsh***** (sorry I can't spell it, but it starts with f) is a very good ordinary level irish book, I often use it even though I do high level, the poems and storys have good notes there.

    i use Fúntais 1 & 2! 1 is all essays and stuff and just on the general topics you have to learn and 2 is the stories, poems and history! I think they're brilliant and have lots of notes too!!!

    ahh fuintais a haon agus a do! I think that the rapid revision book are brilliant! see if you can scab any revision books of any past LC ers! I found a maths LC revision buk in my house d other day its pretty gud and old 98 but the course is the same so its all good!! Oh did anyone buy those exam and career guides last year? I found the green one that did english, history, german, french, home ecc , geog to be a waste cuz we r doing a new course in most dose subjects and it was only of use to LC 2005 ppl! i didnt even bother lukin at dem!what a waste! But the Science magazine was very good! Does anyone know what im talkin bout?

    Get Rapid Revision...it is much better than less stress as it gives clear explanations that you will understand much better. :)

    That is exactly the one I meant! Funtas1+2 are to complicated for me, but if you are very good at pass irish they might be good, but remember theya re honours books. Good luck

    Aye, these babies are great for maths, I must say. Sometimes they jump a bit, and the whole layout is a bit crap, but it's still handy in conjunction with your book or somethin.

    Cheers for the link

    I saw their maths revision book.It looks good and the "Question on
    one page and answer/solution on the other page"is a good technique its 21€ though and its on special offer.
