    I had a different one anyway. It had the 1913 Lockout. Q4 of the Document was What was the outcome for the workers of the Lockout?

    Essays went well aswell. Topic 3 Irish, it had an economic one of how both governments dealt with the social and economical challenges between 1923 and 1939.

    for Europe Topic 2, there was the effect of WW1 on the role of women in society, something about the Balkans aswell. And for Topic 3, Nuremburg Rallies was one, Churchill another(his role in Britain), and the causes of WW2 was another one.
    The european history i was ok, eastern question and propaganda(i take it they wont come up now in lc)

    Why do ya think that? Mocks arent controlled by Examinations Commission, sure with the variety between various companies for this, hardly anything could be asked then

    Plus the real papers have been set at least 9-10 months ago.
    The SEC certainly doesn't look at what comes up on papers set for commercial gain.

    On the GAA paper, could somebody give me an idea of the essays for Irish history - sovereignty & partition and European - divison & realignment please? I understand Nazi propaganda is on it for dictatorship & democracy? Thanks.

    It's DEB. I got it. We were told the GAA and Pearse were coming up (Pearse because we hadn't covered anything else Irish). The GAA question was dodgy, so was Pearse, but I did Nazi Propaganda and Civil Rights- easy!

    Memberofpublic, you'll find spoilers for the paper in the 'Mocks?' thread.

    The Leaving Cert is written in Feb/March actually. That's why ASBOs and the match are hinted as possible topics. The mocks are written in October.

    They might not look at the mocks, but imo, DEB papers tend to be similar to the actual, I've seen several old mocks papers.
