I'm in a bit of a state of shock, for the first time ever I got an A in English, I've never in all my Secondary School years gotten an A in English! Having said that though, the teacher who corrected it wasn't our own teacher and I think she might've been a bit too generous! Still and all I should savour the moment
it's fairly miraculous considering I went into paper two saying I'd be happy of I knew the names of the poems of the poets who came up! 0 -

Just read over last years Irish oral thread ... Really not looking forward to our orals (especially Irish). I'm usually grand with talking in Irish it's just I blank out and don't know what to say even in English! I'm just dreading that moment when I'm waiting outside the door where the orals are being held and the examiner tells me to go in. :O
Have ye done much preparation so far for the orals? French will be grand I'd say, as it's my favourite subject.
A fair bit, we had mock orals in Irish before the pre's (they weren't graded though) and graded ones in Spanish that went towards our pre's (93/100
). We still haven't our sraith pictiuirs done though, 3 more to go. Dreading the Irish one too!
Out of curiosity, did you send away your English mock? If you did, how long did it take to come back? 0 -

We didn't have any mock orals, sadly! But we're getting some for Easter I think. Well done! Same, I've 1 or 2 more to do. I just have that feeling that I'll be sitting in the room on front of the examiner and I'll forget all my Irish I've ever learned, and that I'll fail miserably. I get awful nervous before any oral exams so that doesn't help 
Yep, we did. Well English is the only exam I have back (so early), the other exams aren't back until like next week at the earliest. I think we got English back cause it was the first exams we did and my teacher may have sent them away to get corrected that very day we finished it. We did it just two weeks ago.0 -

I see an English trend starting here now. It'll still probably be aaaages before we get ours back but I really can't wait. It's kind of exciting for some reason. Yes, I am a slight weirdo at times.....
Domino's pizza for dinner tonight. I could quite happily die now I think. Going out for dinner with the parents, brother and his girlfriend on Wednesday evening too. Sooooo much food.
Has anyone else got anything in the post from any colleges they applied to? I got a yoke from Griffith College earlier and I can't even remember what I applied for. All I remember is that it was something in my Level 6/7.....I couldn't be bothered checking right now. I didn't even bother looking at it really, I never really intend on going there, just filled it in for the sake of it really.0 -

We do proper Irish orals all the time for exams like the real thing! My teacher blocks off two days and does them in the oral room and you go by order like the way you do on the day! She records us in all like the real thing she gets very into it because she does the orals herself! :P
That sounds really handy! Would love if we did more practice orals, but I suppose my teacher doesn't have the time :rolleyes:
The next 5 weeks (until Easter holidays) we are spending on oral work though so we should be well prepared, or I hope! 0 -

How did you manage that???????0 -

Ya I hope the real oral will just seem natural from all the experience.

We're doing the same and she's also coming in for the two weeks of Easter to do orals with anyone who wants to do them so hopefully the Irish oral will go well! 0 -
