Sorry to be the bearer of bad news

Doesn't look like a very professional post to me.

Ye so, friend just send me a text that he got from a friend or something...
Now I am in no way regarding this as absolute truth but apparently, said person was handed paper2 by accident and whats coming up was passed on, getting to me...

Again I'll say it, bull**** detector is ringing like crazy at the mo. But just wondering, is it even plausible that someone could be handed the wrong paper? In my school today I'm not even sure if the examiner had paper2 in the class, why would they anyway... ?

The supposed questions were all pretty much what has been predicted which at least made me feel good for a few mins before I actually copped that its 99% likely to be bollox..

Got it too.. I'd say it's rubbish

Anyone can be anyone on the internet. I really dout "he" works for the SEC.

I thought backup papers are only used if a paper has been stolen from the sealed envelopes?

It would be so stupid to use a backup paper becuase of that text, its what every teacher has been predicting since September, anyone can work it out really.

Thing is though, If the rumours keep spreading and it gets out of hand and the media go mental over it, the SEC will switch to the backup paper even if the leak wasnt genuine.

True it would be stupid to do so just because of that text. Text like this go around every year. However if there is some truth behind the paper actually leaking well in that case the backup papers may in fact be used.

If the incorrect papers were given out it would have have to have been reported to the state examinations commission. As I keep saying even if it is an true it doesn't help us.

I doubt it: they're more professional than that. They would try to isolate the centre where the supposed leak happened by contacting the superintendents. If the superintendent confirmed that there was no leak, I doubt a state organisation would be pressured by the media.

I'm off to revise the other non predicted stuff.

G'luck

partyatmygaff

Guys, calm down, don't worry.

I know nothing about the LC course but surely the papers are graded comparitively, so if everyone does not do too well you will be graded in comparison with eachother.
Thats what our english teacher said anyways and she grades LCs and JCs.

Maybe its only for the JC though....

Dont worry

Well it wouldn't be in anyway similar, that's for sure.

I should be studying but i can't take my eyes off this horror...

Why do i yield to that suggestion whose horrid image doth unfix my hair and make my seated heart knock at my ribs against the use of nature?

Isaac702

Who ever that supervisor was I now hate them.

Tonight it is discussing with the Department of Education about whether or not it is possible to get this contingency paper to centres aropund the country in time for tomorrow's exam at 9.30am.

However this is an interesting point. Is it possible for them to get the backup from Athlone to the entire country by tomorrow morning. Personally I would say yes provided they act fast.

Im off to study some of the unexpected poets.

Jello

This is f*cked up. I can't believe this has happened :mad:

Back-up paper better be easy.

Retard of a superintendent.

NerdPantzz

I also got that text, but then got one from the same person saying that it was some ppl in a school in drogheda that made it up to trick their mates in a different school. Dont they have back-up papers incase of leeks anyway??

DDC1990

Right, this isn't good. Anyone know if Everything changes or just a few things change on the back up paper?
I mean would 1) Walcott 2) Bishop 3)Montague 4) Keats come up instead of:
!)Walcott 2) Bishop 3) Longley 4) Keats

Or would it be more likely to come up with Larkin, Rich and thw other fellwh who no-one did?

It has confirmed that a number of students did see the exam paper.
The Examinations Commission has a contingency paper.
Tonight it is discussing with the Department of Education about whether or not it is possible to get this contingency paper to centres aropund the country in time for tomorrow's exam at 9.30am.
More than 115,000 second level students began their Leaving and Junior Certificate exams this morning.

The exams began with English, Paper One, and will run until 19 June.
The students will be examined in almost 100 different subjects and more than 3m exam papers have been printed.
Changes this year include a Leaving Cert timetable tweaked for a second time to relieve the pressure complained of for years by students.
Most candidates should now get at least one half-day free between now and the weekend.

So there was truth to the texts after all!!!!

Fad

Pretty sure this means that only Rich, Literary Genre and King Lear will come up this year.

Sorry Guys.

Firstly well done to the twat who opened the wrong papers, secondly well done to all the twats saying what's on. We all knew what was on it, loads of people were basing their studying around it, and it's probably going to be changed now. If they switch to a back-up and Bishop doesn't come up I'm going to track down everyone who said "my friend said..." and break their legs.
