    We did ours at Kippure Estate, mid-November. It had been lashing rain so the river was almost in flood, so we split into three groups and each did 2 tests each to save time.

    I just need some tips on what exactly examiners want.

    Make sure you check the way that the field report is marked. See the end of last year's marking scheme:
    http://www.examinations.ie/archive/markingschemes/2009/LC005ALP000EV.pdf
    If you need 4 SRPs in a section and you only have 3, you're down in marks straight away. Make sure that your SRPs are definite and obvious to the examiner. Be aware of structure- there are marks for coherence. Basically follow the marking scheme and you should be ok.

    Other marking schemes can also be found at www.examinations.ie.

    Hi i'm doing river erosion and am doing out a draft of the project. For part 3 i have 5 pages written but i over the 450 words maximum but it still fits in the booklet. So should i just leave it or cut it down to 450 words??

    I'd leave it, my grinds teacher said one of his lads had nearly 2000 words in total and lost no marks at all

    I'd leave it, our teacher said that if your over 450 and there is space left for writing the examiner won't take any marks from you.
