I am the same im afriad. my teacher hasnt even looked at the apprentice boys all she done was Coleraine?. she said she was at a teachers conference and everyone is tipping Coleraine to come up but i cant see how they can all be so sure
heres praying for Coleaine! :pac:

Your teacher is potentially costing you a grade. Coleraine and the Apprentice boys are both just as likely to come up.

I reckon Boland, Wordsworth and (hopefully!) Dickenson are possibilities for English. Irish aiste will have to have something about the economy/government anyway, and I'm hoping for Oiche Nollaig na mBan somewhere in there..

If it is even true it's not going be of much use. The SEC more than likely monitor boards and other websites and if they see that something has been leaked they'll silently switch to the contingency paper.

If this is true then you're daft for making it available to the thousands of students you'll be competing against and also the SEC as stated above.

People need to realise this website is under constant scrutiny from the SEC, Tabloids and other crap. Last year there was 3-4 days of media war because a topic popped up here about how people were cheating. A tabloid reporter would love to write a long, exaggerated and ridiculous article on how the teacher who let it slip was instead a private school teacher with inside information, letting it slip to his paying students etc etc.

If you have some golden nugget of information, tell it to your friends and that's about it.

that could be true..but people could be making other predictions which are on the other paper...at the end of the day something is going to come up and people are going to be right and wrong. I don't follow predictions really, but it sorta comforts me in a way..i some people need to have an 'idea' to feel better going into the leaving cert!! their own fault if it doesn't come up in the paper and they only studied that!! that is why i don't heavily follow predictions!

No they have no relation whatsoever. The mock company's are there to make money, if something in the mocks comes up in the Leaving it's by pure fluke.

Not exactly NotExactly :P
The mock companies try to follow patterns to get their tests as close as possible to the real thing. Ok it may be very hard to do so but thatas what they do.

NotExactly

They don't exactly :rolleyes: hint at what's goin' to come up though.

yeah iv heard that too!! i hope the myth question comes up or to christain movements or galileo..i know these on the back of my hand.. i also have a week to focus purely on religion..i say it would be okay.. but predictions would be nice!!

yeah i really hope myths do too! the last time they were up was 09 but it still could be likely. Anselm and Aquinas might be on it. the jewish understanding of the kingdom of god might be on too.

Hannahx

But for example in homec a technology comes up everysecond year i think and it came up in the pres so i think it has a chance of coming up in the leaving and the economy came up too in irish and everyones saying that that has a chance of coming up ?

For accounting, my predictions would be:

120- Company is most likely, manufacturing is an outside chance.

100- Incomplete I would think is extremely likely, along with club/cash flow/tab/published. I hope it's published.

80- Production Budgeting and Marginal & Absorption Costing imo

Anyone thinking that possibly a long Question on Sensory Analysis could appear as it hasn't been up in a while?? In Home Ec!!

would be a good idea to go over them..if its a long question, it will need to be specific, maybe part of a long question?learn the different types of tests cas they could be a short question and they are handy to know!

which method? cash-book or balance sheet method?

LC2010HIS

Would it be ok just to cover theme and issue? Cultural context is incomplete and taking up too much time

If CC is a major problem for you then just prepare link statements ie. In all three of my texts the protagonist is depicted as a powerful character. Then be able to elaborate on these statements and compare. Good knowledge of your texts is essential.

I don't know. My teacher thinks balance sheet but she said you can't be certain. Know both.

Any tips hints for OL Irish please

for written pieces paper 1, theres nearly always, if not always, something on post pairtaimseartha, learn some nice irish on disputes to use in a comhra cause you can change most of them into an arguement.

For stories, I was looking at past papers yesterday and what I feel will come up will be:

in part a) lig sin i gcathu, la bui bealtaine

in part b) Cearrbhach Mac Caba, Fiche Bliain ag Fas, An Bhean Og.

Im almost certain that lig sin will be in part a, la bui bealtaine may switch places with cearrbhach mac caba though.

For the poetry I am thinking:

In part a) Nil Aon Ni, Bimse buan

Part b) Jack or Faoiseamh a Gheobhadsa.

Nil aon ni hasnt been on the paper since '07 which i find odd since theres only 5 poems to choose from, general trend in papers so far is that one of the part a's of last year will be this years part b.

Hope this helps =]

GEOGRAPHY- REGIONAL WORRIERS, THIS MIGHT HELP!

I made a quick list out of the regions asked since 2006 (when the course was updated and changed). I was terrified of having to learn each aspect of physical, primary, secondary and tertiary sectors of each region. No way would I have the time. Hopefully this list will help me and you too!
Here's the questions asked and the region I would do for the question, and the number of times the question has been asked
*Primary economic activities in an Irish region (West- Agriculture) - asked 3 times so far.
*Secondary economic activities in an Irish region (West- manufacturing)- asked once so far.
*Impact of EU enlargement on Irish economy (Like on Fishing sector in west, subsidies and encouragement of foreign investment) -Asked twice so far.
*Primary activites in an EU region (Mezzigiorno- agriculture) Asked twice so far.
*Manufacturing in a Eu region ( a very specific question mind you, but I'd do P.B) asked once so far.
*Population distribution in an EU region- Mezzigiorno- asked once so far.
*Tertiary activities in an EU region ( Mezzigiorno) Asked FOUR times so far!
*Urban growth in an EU region- (Paris Basin) Asked THREE times so far.
*Culture of Sub-continental region (Brazil/Indian sub continent) Asked FOUR times so far!
*Primary activites in subcontinental region-(Brazil/India) asked twice so far.

Hope this helps narrow it down!
