    well i thought that irish paper two went well but i found the choices for the studied stories kind of hard to work around for the stories i learnt.
    But anyways what did you all think of it??

    I studied Mise Me Fein, which is about a guy doing his leaving cert, so an scoil fitted in nicely for that, and the rest of the paper went ok, but not too great

    thought it was ok. seen pros was really easy. i was really lucky that i changed what poem i was studyin last night coz an Teaghlach fitted it perfectly. i agree about the poems,i think i got the complete wrong meaning!:confused:

    i thought the unseen story was kinda easy the q's on all sections were pretty hard
    the letter i thought was difficult but i was ok on the poem youve studied part but waffled on the studied story

    Easy, but I found the questions on the unseen poetry a bit tricky.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 706 ✭✭✭tracker-man


    Yep, pretty much the same as what you guys were saying, unseen poetry the only difficult section. I nearly jumped outta my seat and started to celebrate when I saw Dúlra for the poem and Bás for the short story! :D I had my answers learned off and they flew onto the page, left me with lots of time to go back over the exam. Essay choices were nice aswell.

    unseen poetry was WELL tricky yeah. just guessed, basically. and i thought i'd done enough practise!!!

    i got stuck on studied prose though. i'd only realy studied "an punk" so when gra or meas didnt come up, i was pretty much screwed. ended up doing "the family", i think.

    just hoping for a b, my essay was pretty good so that might just get me it. :D

    i thought irish was fairly simple, but like you in maths, i'm just 'naturally' good at it! :)
