    I don't think you will accepted:confused: ... if you're more than 30mins late the examiner doesn't have to let you in.

    Should I bring colours for CSPE?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 286 ✭✭cfc.forever


    If you decide to do the poster they will be neccessary so I'd bring them just in case don't spend the whole exam colouring though :P if you decide before the exam you're not doing poster question, colours will not be needed.

    Do the long questions require any knownledge or just common sense and special waffling skills? ;) I don't even think I have colours around, so maybe i'll just do a proper question :D.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 286 ✭✭cfc.forever


    The long questions just require you to be able to read the next and answer questions based on the text, some common sense and logic. Don't waffle too much but if you need to waffle and if you don't have the facts, I'm pretty sure you could waffle your way to an A with the long questions lol, goodluck.

    Just did CSPE.... I almost died laughing at the first section .. wow. Nothing special about this paper, same as every year :). I wish they gave paper because I ran out of space for the last section :o.

    That was easy. Obermer was on section 1 :L! Only thing I didn't get was the '2013 European year of c...'. Looking it up, it seems to be citizens. I wrote cat. I had no clue.


  • Registered Users Posts: 712 ✭✭✭MmmPancakes


    lol


  • Registered Users Posts: 123 ✭✭juniorcert


    What an easy exam :) I stayed there the full hour and a half and at the end, there was only 13 out of about 130 left, lol. What long question did people do? I did q.4, was quite an interesting one to write about actually, haha

    I did Q4 too. I wrote a page full for just part a) ...


  • Registered Users Posts: 792 ✭✭✭Cr4pSnip3r


    I did Q4 also. I barely even talked about the actual event.


  • Registered Users Posts: 102 ✭✭LawdyLad


    What a joke of a subject to be quite honest. Answered everything except for 1 or 2 fill the blank questions that I didn't know. I answered Q1 for the poster section and wrote the full amount provided. Easy and hoping for an A but I won't be disappointed if I don't as the subject is utterly pointless


  • Registered Users Posts: 123 ✭✭juniorcert

    Ya I ended up writing 4 and a half pages :)

    You got extra paper?! The examiner said we don't need any ...


  • Registered Users Posts: 123 ✭✭juniorcert

    Ya a couple of people did, it says on the paper you can ask for more from the examiner. So the examiner didn't give you anymore paper? That's really unfair :eek:

    At the start he said "It says to answer on the booklet. So you won't need any extra paper." ... I ended up making my answers very concise so I can finish them .. ah well. :pac:

    Ya they're the two I didn't get either, I said referendum officer so maybe I'll get a half mark. Oh well, only Cspe anyway :)

  • Registered Users Posts: 206 ✭✭examstress


    I got nearly that whole section wrong lol (section 1 question 2) Dont think I got my A lol :L


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 286 ✭✭cfc.forever


    :O it was return officer I was right.. was unsure on that one and I didn't get 2013 year of C, Q1 was simple, the fill in the blanks were easy, I'm not sure about my Q2 answers, but my long questions were top-notch, guranteed A for me like honestly I put loads of work into the project and flew through the exam <3


  • Registered Users Posts: 206 ✭✭examstress


    my project is near perfect but the exam was not A standard......will the A come my way ? :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 286 ✭✭cfc.forever


    Buddy if your action project was an A Standard, say for e.g you got 55% thats if your action project was pretty decent, and if you got 55% in the exam, you got yourself an A :p and it just depends how the marking scheame works


  • Registered Users Posts: 55 ✭✭Drift_King_33


    Easy exam except for European Year and Voting questions in Section 1 :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 20 emzana


    Did anyone get that fill in the blanks question in Section One I can't remember the question but it was A________ O______?
