    I honestly don't know what the marking scheme is for the letters so I couldn't tell you! Check one of the old marking schemes to see what it says about the layout and what not :)



    I thought it was a preposition :O I said 'Sa' -.- I feel so stupid xD



    No bother :D

    I think I understood A. You had to write about a video you saw on youtube, two things you liked/didn't like about it and you had to say why you liked youtube? :p

    I thought paper 1 and 2 today were ok I completely screwed up the letter instead of writing about being in a band I said I was at a concert Do yas think I will lose much marks for this if the body of the letter was still really good

    for an A you have to get 204/240. Try do an estimate of the marks you thought you got in each section and see how you fare.

    You will lose a lot of marks for not answering the question, as in english I'm afraid. I know how it feels, I done the same in poetry :/

    Don't even bother worrying about it! You probably did fine, if the letter was your only downfall and if it wasn't even a big mistake, you'll be fine. You can never really tell anyways until you get your results. Focus on maths & geography and forget about Irish.

    Edit: Didn't you mention before that you were fairly okay for Maths?

    .. Uh. Well. That could have went better. I found the reading comprehension in paper 2 really difficult. Also, for my letter, I said that I was in a band and the only name I could come up with was 'The Liptons', since I had a bottle of Iced Tea in front of me. Lololol xD
