Sure I rang the commision and they said that the paper will be very similar,different questions but all in all similar

I'm certain they'll only change the questions and not the poets to be quite honest. If they did it would ruin predictions for upcoming years, and while the SEC can blag on about "you should do 5 poets" it's not like patterns are there just for the lulz.

Grammar too!

I kid. But really, while we cannot expect everyone to do their best at English or even write perfectly 100% of the time (everyone is guilty of the occasional dodgy expression or typo) it isn't hard to right click the underlined words on your browser.

Particularly "wen ur xpresin ur borken hart at da thot of gng in2 tht xam nw ;_______; my lief r runt!!1" as an Honours English student.

Rainey.

petitions wont work, were just gonna have to live with it

I know about that silly petition, I've been getting pointless messages last night telling me about it.

It won't achieve anything. Plus, a good amount of the comments are trolling and general idiocy. Even if it did go through, if, the higher ups wouldn't take it seriously. Not with, 'LOL GUYZ IM MCBETHHH SUCKS FOR YE ROLF!!!!!'.

Agreed. And even if the date was changed (massive italics on that thar IF), as soon as it was announced there'd be another petition complaining about the new date.

If someone so much as drops a pen in maths 1 tomorow, there'll be petition to discount the leaving cert entirely and give everyone 600 points

I am convinced that it's actually just a place where trolls go each day. Bet they just wake up under their bridges, pack a lunch and wander there just to spam together in unison.

It is quite a good example of the crap that's being spammed on AllHonours.ie (it was always a festering pit of whingers that can't spell nor speak to save their lives).

For example: "pls sume1 hlep wit da elgnsnih xam!!!???????? OMFG PLS?????

I've popped onto that site, and I've contributed some material on occasion. The bloody textspeak would drive you crazy.

I think it's somewhat entertaining.

Mainly the people being all, 'ZOMG MY LIFE IS RUINED OH NOES ;___;'.

Although, I must admit that that probably was my perfect paper.

But, oh well. Let's move on, eh?

You study two women, one will come up. If you honestly think each poet has an equal chance of coming up then you probably haven't studied enough...

The SEC should have got the new paper out last night. It's ironic that every newspaper in Ireland managed to publish something about it and they received the news late last night and I could get the newspaper at 7am in my local shop. The SEC received the info at 4:30pm and they could have sent it out then.

....That's actually a very good point!!!

Who are these people criticizing others for not learning 5 poets. Every year people have to make sacrafices in the material they study based on importance and predictability. One of the most important factors of the Leaving Cert is choosing the right material to cover and with some people doing up to 9 subjects it's just not possible to cover every facit of the course. So yes people do base their studies on past experience and advise from others. It is ridiculous to call people lazy because they are trying to space out their workload. These students have every right to be annoyed when they see that this small but vital risk has paid off but because of some mentally challenged man that cannot differentiate between the number 1 and 2 they have been screwed out of the perfect paper.

No one's saying that the whole situation isn't a disaster. But just because a gamble is almost certain to pay off doesn't mean it's not a gamble.
