    I felt like I did something wrong? I wrote a page on each but it was just TOO easy!

    Bit too easy of a paper :pac:

    Guys any idea how much you lose if you don't address the subject of the question? I know I wrote about the wrong thing in my letter and didn't hit on the question at all really. :/

    I think it's 40 marks for your Irish and 10 for purpose, so you'll still probably get the majority of the marks.

    Woo thank god for that, wrote a page of reasonably ok Irish for it so got some decent marks hopefully.

    that was simple, finished at around 2-45

    Left at 2:50. Annoyed with the Aural. Struggled with a few easy ones. Written part was easy though. Flew through it

    I spent about 15/20 minutes writing and nearly an hour daydreaming/trying to think of words. I tend to overthink what I'm putting down on the page, especially when writing essays. I think I did fine regardless, 60% or so. I had trouble with the listening because I couldn't make heads or tails of what was being said due to the accents of two of the speakers. Meh

    What does "Is aoibhinn liom an deireadh seactaine" mean? I wrote about the health system?

    That was a joke :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 57 ✭✭Aksa94


    For I love the weekend I said I go to school all week for most of the essay and then at the end I said how I loved the weekend. Will that effect mark much


  • Registered Users Posts: 439 ✭✭RML

  • Registered Users Posts: 15,286 ✭✭✭✭stephenjmcd

    Essay title/blag was I love the weekend, a film I saw or something on your area.

    Letter was something about a present or being in a talent show.

    I thought the aural was very easy.

    For the I love the weekend one I was going to write about a party but realised that that was on another question but ended up writing about a timpiste instead haha


  • Registered Users Posts: 36 LukeF96


    was the letter a present from your aunty/uncle?
    I wrote that i got a car and was thanking them :D

    I wrote the same :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 973 ✭✭✭internet_user


    i did the blog about the weekend, story about the plate smashing and letter to your friend and trials for the rte talents show? i wasnt sure if i wrote about the right thing for the letter, so i'll be marked out of best two yeah?


  • Registered Users Posts: 54 ✭✭Lena137


    I thought it was a letter thanking your aunt/uncle for driving lessons as a present and you were saying about your first lesson.

    Damn, that makes much more sense. Still i wrote loosely about that. Fits in to what i wrote. Didn't write about first lesson though. Still 40 for Irish 10 for purpose so i'm grand :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 184 ✭✭RoutineBites


    Well that was grand. Had to stop myself from laughing when I thought of playing god and ramming a car through the front window of a restaurant in my, "rósta sicín" essay. Just to get that bit of, "timpiste" vocab in there, ya know? :D
