yeah on our xmas test we had one from the sample papers and it was out of 40Same, I don't get the new marking for the comprehensions at all.

The old course just gave 9 marks for each question (bar one I think), in 4s and 5s. But this year all I got was 2s, 3s and 0s.
I have no idea what each one's marked out of!
Are there any new marking schemes up online?0 -
I think the sample papers mark the old comprehensions differently though, theres the longer ones added in anyways, have a look :PThe old course just gave 9 marks for each question (bar one I think), in 4s and 5s.

Got it off jjshouse, quite good nowOh oh oh what's it like????
where didya get it? 
know a few people with huge problems and a japanese company its navy with an open back and one strap!:)
My english teacher has been out sick for 3 long periods of time since 5th year, we don't have our mock paper..just the result! But my french teacher retired in September, we got a teacher the 3rd week in November, it really sucks I feel for youSo my French teacher's been out for the last 3 weeks and she won't be back until after Easter (but she might not), and only last week did my school think to organise a sub. Now the sub's out too. Not blaming people for being sick, but there's only a few school days until the orals, other classes are having practice orals and this French girl is helping them with pronunciation and stuff, whereas we've just had about 15 free classes. Still don't know if I should do a document or not either... 0 -

Yeah I usually go on like that too, I usually just speak and stick in an Irish/French word somewhere, it's horrible. :L
Really what did the letter say? Was it about the real yoke?
I'm like that too, but the orals are my sole focus right now.
I still have to learn how to converse though, even when the teacher is just firing questions around the class, just keeping us on out toes, my stomach goes in knots, not because I don't know, but, it's like stage fright or something.
Like for my pre-Irish oral, I got so incredibly nervous, I couldn't stop shaking, I actually think I might faint in the real thing.0 -
For ye worried about the Irish oral.
According to this everyone's ****é anyway:pac:0 -

My project is basically flawless and just has to be written into the booklet. I got 80% in my Mock (B1) with very little preparation, but I can't seem to get myself to study Geography at all! :rolleyes:. I don't know what it is about it, there's just so damn much to learn!
Anyone who does Geography, what should I learn for the Physical and Regional? I got a measly 53 and 54 out of 80 in these sections. They brought down my average score from 93% to 80% in the Mock. My Teacher has missed something like 15 double classes this year, including today and she really is no help what so ever! Do ye think this is enough to learn for Physical?

- Landform Development (Meander)
- Human Interaction with Fluvial Processes
- Structures of Deformation (Folding/Faulting)
- Formation of Limestone Rock
- Formation of Metamorphic rocks
- Formation of Surface Landform Feature
- Formation of Underground landform feature
- Isostatic processes
- Weathering
- Plate Tectonics
- Primary Activity (Ireland, Paris, SW USA, Mezzogiorno)
- Secondary Activity (Ireland, Paris, SW USA, Mezzogiorno)
- Tertiary Activity (Ireland, Paris, SW USA, Mezzogiorno)
- Growth of Urban Regions (Ireland, Paris, LA)
- Culture (SW USA,)
- Effect of EU Enlargement on Irish Economy
Picture Frame if I was you lets say take physical: Learn meander because it is a guaranteed I only learnt waterfall and it always comes up,and the question that comes with it is either:
Interaction with rock cycle
Interaction with river processes
Formation of igneous,sedimentary and metamorphic rocks
I would not suggest needing to know more than this and them regional essays are what I am preparing too so they seem ok Hope I helped... 0 -

Honestly I think thats everything :P Population distribution is awkward in regional and I'd avoid it. But be prepared for a comparison question like last year!PictureFrame wrote: »

Also, would you mind shedding light on something for me? When you do, for example, human interaction with the rock cycle and the economic benefits - do you lay it out like interaction and 7 srp's then economic benefits and 7 srp's? and how big are your diagrams? my teacher says its 0 marks if its not a half A4 page but thats absolutely ridiculously big for something like plates where its just flipping rectangles and theres three diagrams, it'd look awful in an exam 0
Thanks for clearing that up :P I've got work to do! :L
