    Good luck all. Though if you're reading this, you're on boards mid exam, hence you're probably fucked.

    Carlowboy'd be talking about LC maths, cause he was a five year freak in 06.

    History, and whoever wrote that paper, can suck my balls, because that was one horrendously bad exam. I'm not going to say I deserve so much better, because I was pretty much bluffing, but I don't think it was a fair exam.

    But deV came up! You have to be happy if deV came up!

    What didn't you like? What sections are you doing in it?

    The whole country went apeshít over it ffs, even Delap was in the Irish Times saying it wasn't a fair paper at all. and yeah, de Valera was cool, didn't like having to bluff CnaG though.

    Delap, what a brilliant teacher, teaches in my school, must've been really bad so, glad I didn't choose it for next year. Any idea why they made it so hard? Maths higher level paper 2 last year was so challenging mainly because uni lecturers (particularly physics ones) were giving out that students can't think laterally, reckon anything similar caused this?

    From what I gather, everyone was expecting a question on Anglo-Irish between '32 and '39, and went completely mad when it became a question from '23 to '49. Also, Nazi propaganda was tipped but characteristics of the Nazi stae came up.

    My class was okay because our teacher knows lots of people and gave us a page of tips before the end of school that had pretty much everything that came up in the exam, including Belfast during World War 2. Mwahahah! Take that, Delap! (Not that I know who Delap is, because people in the country don't tend to read Dublin teachers in the Irish Times)
