Firstly, is one A4 page enough for a 20 marker in the poetry section of paper 2?
Also, does anyone know which characters in An Triail are predicted to come up?

I'd say you should try push for a page and half to two pages. I wrote a page in a bit in my pre and only got 13/20 :mad: Fair enough there was some grammar mistakes tho. Then again one could argue its quality over quantity

I've been hearing a lot about shaol shóisialta na hÉireann sna seascaidí for an Triail. Dunno bout the characters tho

In the honours poetry Im studying the four poems that havnt come up. At least one of them will come up if not two. Since the course is changing soon Id imagine we'll see alot of the unused poems etc. For the ordinary section I'm going over everything and for the pros clare sa speir, bean og, lig sinn and fiche bliain.
Stair im learning aisling polatuil, gluaiseanna, dan direach nd a few others, i cant remember tbh?? sorry. the mock is generally a good indication of what u need for stair id say.

tht i might try and answer ur question the questions are usually asked in groups of five or six and you will have to answer on two of them. the group will either be of the min characters on ther own or the minor characters on there own. they are never mixed

if u know three main characters eg. maire, her mother and the brothers and three minor characters eg. Maili, sean the motor and bean ui cinselaigh
