Is anyone else here planning on just completely making up regional geography essays for the Leaving cert? Seriously, I've learned you can just throw down anything that sounds like it could be correct and they give you marks.
I made up at least half of an essay on India in the mocks and scriblled down a dodgy diagram and guessed the location of a few cities and the river ganges and got full marks.
I did this in my mock and did not get full marks
haha my teacher marked our papers harshly though, but I will study regional just to make sure, you don't know who your examiner is going to be.. Really really need an A :pac: 0 -

Obviously you can't bull**** an entire essay but if you find yourself one or two SRPs short, you can do some informed bull****ting.0 -

oh yeah that happens nearly every time, a little informed waffling is always good just to be sure you have enough :P
By the way, in physical regional and elective are you doing essay style? A friend of mine was told by her teacher to write in bullet points.. seems a little awkward to me 0 -

I've been told that's a bad idea, it's harder to correct or something.0 -

Cool, what do you play?
The reason why I'm asking: What's it like for the leaving? I did it for the JC, loved it and got a B but I had to give it up, but now I'm kinda thinking ahead to what happens if I need to repeat (I know I shouldn't be thinking like that but I like to be prepared for everything :P), do you think I could cover the course in the year and get a B?
I've kept up my guitar playing and I've learned a good bit of theory since I was 15 when I did the JC. I won't be able to keep on one of my subjects because they can't teach it in the repeat courses near me so I'm thinking about doing music instead of it. Think it's a good idea?0 -

I sing :O :pac:
Music is very do-able. You'll honestly have no bother covering it in 1 year, tbh you could probably cover it in a month and get a B :L hardest part is the composing and its not hard, its like a skill you just have to learn and practice and perfect. Listening paper is sheer combination of learning off and common sense. Practical is grand, just have good variety in the pieces you pick and maybe give the tech a go (it can literally be learned in an hour) music is graaaand
You shouldn't even be thinking about repeating already!! :P at least wait til June's over!0 -
