    i have woodwork and tg left to go aswell but i'm not bothered about doing any study for it because i'm dropping them, thank god! :D
    I suppose for tg just know the constructions for the ellipse and parabola and transformation geometry, what questions do you intend on doing lads?

    Ya thats the advantage of doing it next year. I think its 40 rds cent of the marks is computers and our school just got a brand new tg dedicated computer and graphics room! But in the end i chose not to do it.

    You're guaranteed a Q1, 3, 5, and 6 the same way they've come up all the other years so if you're wondering what to study, go for those...

    Im doing it for leaving cert too,
    We do our tech graph in a room with 28 new computers and we havn't even used them once!
    our teacher skipped a part of course where we actually needed to have done tech graph on the computer in the short questions so thats one more i can't do.. :rolleyes:

    i think il do the 1st question, the transformation geometry question, the elipse question and the rotation question

    good luck

    I'll probably end up doing the Ortho/Auxilliary, inclined solids, transformation and ellipse. Maybe developments if it's a manageable one. I'm going to stay away from isometric. It's easy but takes ages.

    Loved that drawing paper, honestly. I found it so easy especially question 6 where you were given all measurements, didn't even have to find the major/minor axis. Looks like it's an A for me
