leaving cert essentials??

what is everyone taking into the exam tomorrow?
what are you not allowed to bring in ?

Just bring yourself, a drink, and pens, and you're sorted. Obviously extras for subjects such as Maths and DCG.

Sorry if I sound like a nutter, but are you allowed to bring a maths set and calculator into subjects where they wouldn't always be needed? I was planning on bringing them into Home Ec. I want the maths set because I keep my colouring pencils in there and they have asked very simple maths questions in the past (ie. 9 x 4.2) I don't think I could do that in my head when I'm in a rush.
And is there ever a problem with bringing a second calculator into maths?

Suppose I might as well ask this here too. I was planning on bringing in a stopwatch instead of a regular watch. Made a big mistake counting minutes on a watch in the mocks (still can't tell the time in 6th year ). I've disabled the beeping sound on the stopwatch. I presume I'm ok to bring it in?

You should be but if you're worried just ask the examiner They're usually nice.

The SEC will put clocks in the exam hall so you SHOULD be ok, unless you're really far back and/or have bad eyesight!

Framble

Pens, mints, a chocolate bar, a juice drink and water.

Wow I can't believe I forgot that.

I'll probably bring a fan just in case it gets too warm

do you reckon a hidden camera is allowed or frowned upon. havent come across it as a rule but will they see it as some attempt to cheat?

I highly doubt it. You could record whats on the paper send it to someone and get them to sent the answers back.
