    Agreed, history/business could well induce suicide.

    our exam hall was so hot that my hands were dripping of sweat from writing... i coulda wrote like another 10 pages if i could grip my damn pen and if all these dam ticks didnt keep on going all over my papers! i crushed lots of red ticks on my exam paper , hopefully the examiner will give me some pity lol


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 411 ✭✭Faerie


    Paper1: 1.5 + 2.5 + 2.5 +1 + 3.5 =11

    Paper 2: 6.5 + 5.5 + 1.5 + 4 = 17.5

    so 28.5 apparently...no wonder my hand is aching and I didn't even get paper 1 finished. I did question B in about 2 mins, it's not finished (it was just a page) and it was pretty shocking.

    Are the exam boards having a laugh or what?

    Did about 1 page or thereabouts.
    <but my writing is really small>

    how can you have sexual writing? :p

    you mean you write like a girl? :D

    girls writing = uniformed, clean, neat, tidy
    boys writing= messy, hard to read, babyish

    ive got woeful handwriting, just about readable. but they say messy writing is a sign of intelligence ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,020 ✭✭✭mang87


    uh, 14?


    wtf is this 24 ****?! :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,557 ✭✭✭GrumPy


    Dont generalise :rolleyes: we all know sexy girls have sexy writing, and fat girls have stupid writing, end.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 636 ✭✭✭NADA


    People who write 30+ pages tend to be full of ****. YOu can get an a1 with 12 or 13 pages. My teacher told us and he's an experienced corrector.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 887 ✭✭✭Rockerette


    eeeh, 9 in P1, 13 in P2, so 21 in total?

    16/17 maybe

    is 9/10 words per line small?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,109 ✭✭✭ThE_IVIAcIVIAIV


    i do an average of 6 or 7 words per line, my writing is normal size


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 474 ✭✭deisedolly


    Think I did about 22 pages, who cares anyway? Any idiot can write 30pages of sh*ite, its quality not quantity!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,467 ✭✭✭smemon


    it's true 14 pages could get you an A but unlikely.

    if youve done the work your going to write as much as possible. if you havn't you'll be found wanting.

    it's the acid test of how you perform in relation to everyone else imo.


  • Registered Users Posts: 303 ✭✭Rob30888


    About 20ish across the two. Those booklets were fooking huge :eek: Were they like that in the Junior Cert?


  • Registered Users Posts: 130 ✭✭brid_m


    12 paper 1 and 12 paper 2!! :D So 24 in total! And now my hand is killing me!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,181 ✭✭✭abercrombie


    i have no idea...i didn't bother counting..as far as i'm concerned, i was finished..i didn't care how many pages i wrote!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,241 ✭✭✭Funkstard


    32 all together - 21 in paper 1!

    didn't realise it until the end, 6 pages for my comparative, 1and a bit page for my unseen, 6 pages for my poetry and 7/8 pages for lear it must have been. i was writing on lear until the end so i didn't even get to check back over it..but i did a quick check and counted 21 pages.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 308 ✭✭iggyman
