    I don't think there's ever been a History paper that's technically good or bad, just depends what you have prepared. For me, despite being an A student all year and working till the cows come home to keep my grades up, It was a train wreck- not a single Irish essay I could really do, only half of one of my prepared Nazi essays was usable since they asked pre-ww2, and my MLK essay was just a boycott essay with his name thrown in a few more times. I left about 40 minutes early- as ye know, you should be running out of time for History not leaving early. Gutted about it. Worst part is, I didn't bother studying for Irish since I didn't need it for UL. Now, if I fail both Irish and History.... no courses for me.

    Just think really positively. Unfortunately none of the stuff I studied came up but everything that did come up was stuff I could really bluff my way through and write a decent four pages. I actually don't do Irish so I really have to do well for all my subjects :/ I'm sure History went well, you just feel that it went bad. Just be optimistic :D I'm sure we'll see you in UL this year :D

    Was very happy with French :) but for History, I just felt there was too much questions on key personalities and I didnt study that a whole lot. Plus I never expected they would put up Stalin 2 years in a row :confused:

    Oh wow! This is great :D I felt so scared going by myself but now I'm feeling pretty happy :) Is anyone here from Mayo? :D

    I'm doing Arts in English and History :) Need around 360. That's my second choice. First is just arts but is about 435 points :/

    I have English and New Media down, and also just Arts! Who knows, we might end up in the same classes. :P

    This is quite a good idea for a thread, if more were made with each college it would be a great way to meet boardsies going to the same place next year! (with mr. Longhorns permission of course :pac:)

    As you can see from my name I'm definitely heading to UL! Its gonna be mental! I'm hoping to study Gen Nursing but will probably end up doing Mental Health since the points for General are a bit too high for me. All my choices are there :D

    Hoping to do French and German, i'd like to do Japanese but I dont think it'll be as useful to me as German. Sounds like a good course though, I really hope I get it.
