    Hey all,

    Just found out there we've to read a passage in the Orals just wondering does anyone know where i could get a copy of these passages or its say you can read your own?? whats the best thing to do? Ive landed myself in the deep end by repeating Irish at hons level and im the only one in the class doing it and getting no help from the teacher so im feeling rather panicky at the mo...as for the mocks i know i wont write anything for the hons paper so should i sit the ord just to get the feel of it all again??

    Thanks in advance

    Dandoline.

    yeah they are in a book specifically written for the oral in easons. shortcuts to success - the irish oral. Think it has pronounciations above tricky words as well. There should be a CD in the back also

    You can find them here

    But you teacher will probably give you them. You need your own copy for the oral, but you are allowed to write on it (even in English, phonetic spellings etc.)

    Also you only pick 5 out of 15. We are doing 3,4,8,9,10
