    Anyone have any useful links? Some of the ones given out on this board have been REALLY useful (Wish I had seen the Linear Programming video in time).

    Someone linked this before, for poetry. Brief summaries;
    http://www.theleavingcert.com/subjects/irish/irish-poems-shortened

    I'd learn the words for the techniques; repetition, assonance, alliteration etc. for answering the poetry stuff. As for the stories, you need to know the basic outline of the story, cos they ask you "finish the story based on this starting point", and they also need to know the characters, why you like/dislike them.

    What does easpa ceille mean? Mental absence?

    ETA: Okay can somebody explain how the Paper should be answered, I'm confused now looking over it. Cúrsa Roghanach means "Optional Course" right? What does it mean by optional? The Ainmnithe has options too...

    Designated Course and Optional Course....I don't know what was optional....

    (I know, I know, I should REALLY know this already....)

    A fifth of the total marks? That you get for knowing some simple Irish and answering questions on a shallow, empty poem? I won't say no, cheers!
