    one of my teachers is always telling us to stop predicting and just learn everything but that's just so fecking boring...

    supposedly human reproduction and the earthworm are quite likely on the higher biology course...

    in ordinary irish my teacher is hammering faoilean into us for the main poetry...


    anyone any ideas for classics?

    Apparently, Heany and Boland should come up on the poetry section for honours English.

    For history the Spanish Civil war is supposed to be a banker question

    I don't think it is possible to predict the classics paper...

    I wouldnt bet on the Spanish Civil War, if youre just going by patterns and not actual tips. Its irregular and hard to predict. We didnt bother doing it at all.

    As for English, well, I can only say that I hope both of you are wrong... we arent doing either Boland or Dickinson, and i dislike the poetry of both Shakespeare and Heaney. Ironically, Bishop is the only other poet on the course i dislike...

    Yea, I was getting a wee bit worried about that myself.

    Shakespeare is piss easy though.

    Damn, I was hoping for Longley in English poetry! Only poems I know really well.

    according to my english teacher who went on some english teacher course thing last year, the department have said that they have no problem with repeating the pattern of the year before i.e. it won't be easy to predict poets and she warned us against it saying that it really is too dodgy but i'm still hoping for heaney :D

    Heaney and Dickenson are dead certs for the Higher English, i'm certain that Longley won't come up.
    English is an easy enough subject.
