French ol deb

4 comprehensions about sites,students, ghost story(hard enough) and tennis player
Fill in gaps was harder than expected but form filling was the same as other years and included talk about yourself,hobbies,work experience and when you could start working for the equestrian centre.
I did a postcard which included
-you were two weeks on holidays with friends hy a beach
-you are going out tonight
-you hope go to mountpellier or something like that tomorrow
I did diary entry
-you're lc exams are hard and you're tired
-sad to say goodbye to your friends and teacher
-hope to go out with your friends after lc is over

Listening is grand apart from the one about buying concert tickets so just be wary of that one

If you think you done bad in the mocks on 2 higher papers, actually i know i did terrible, totally wasn't prepared is it still possible to do well for the exams in June?

Of course it is. You just have to keep studying and at the end of the day you will do well.

DCG DEB spoilers:

Conic sections long question - know how to get a focal sphere for a hyberbola and where directrix, vertex and focal point for it, and then draw the hyperbola from a cut cone, and draw it in plan.

Oblique plane long question - planes given are just two triangles with a given line of intersection, know how to get dihedral angle from that and then the traces of a plane, and then the angle of inclination between vertical and horizontal traces.

Structural forms long question - tough one, know hyperbolic paraboloids and their traces.

Geological Geometry - pretty straightforward, know how to do a sloping road, and then also how to find the dip and strike of 3 vertical holes.

Short questions included development of an elipse onto a cylinder, axonometric of a trophy with a circle in it, a perspective drawing with auxillary vanishing points at 25 degrees, and an interpenetration question

Anyone finished their mocks completely now? How'd you guys do? It is pretty damn exhausting..

It will be the same in the real thing, so it's important get into a healthy sleep pattern as early as mid-May. Afternoon exams are a particularly risk for nodding off. Eating light, nutritious food for lunch rather than (say) a bag of chips is good too.

Not sure if this is the place, but;

I think there was actually a problem with the

equilibrium

question on this paper...

They didn't give you the state of each component of the reaction (e.g. ethanoic acid wasn't listed as aqueous, etc.). Usually this is fine, because it has little relevance, but they put in water as one of the components of the reversible reaction. Since we don't know if it was liquid (i.e. the solvent of the product) or gaseous/solid (not a solvent) then it's impossible whether to know if it should be counted in the concentration calculations or not.

The problem is that if it was listed as (l) - liquid, it wouldn't be counted in the Kc equation, because the solvent concentration is ignored. I did it this way in the exam, but other people did it the other way (counted its concentration) and I think both are valid because they didn't say.

Any chem teachers/students to clarify?

think it was Examcraft, paper one was about why I live my phone and moving school.

Comprehension about Mary black and athletics, seemed more difficult than they usually are for OL!

DÍS - 5 general questions about the story just learn the summary.

CÁCA MILLIS - 2 points about Paul's personality and terrible things that Catherine done to him

AN SPALPÍN FÁNACH - 2 points of theme
2 images 2 reasons why you did/didn't like it

GÉIBHEANN - 5 general questions about the poem(short) 2 emotions 2 reasons why you did/ didn't like it.

Does anyone know how much DEB papers cost teachers vs exam craft for subjects like biology/ history? Might help me figure out if they're exam craft or deb?

The prices are available on their websites. I don't think there's a huge difference between them (if any).

Anyone know how long it takes for them to come back?

There are people still picking them up to correct them. Both companies want them back within a week to ten days, so it depends on when your school sent them out, which company they are with, how many correctors that company has, how quickly the correctors get through them etc..

This is not a thread to ask for PMs, or spoof about what exam you have.

If you have info, post it, using spoilers. If you haven't, don't.

Does anyone know what came up on HL French DEB paper and HL art paper all I'm seeing is exam craft, thanks! I know it says know request but my exam is tomorrow!

For Irish art it's was Newgrange and a Bronze Age question but I didn't really look at that

European was Giotto, Masaccio, Constanble, Michael Angelo, Carravagio

Then a museum question. How a trip to a museum helps in the classroom and with your appreciation of art in general

q1- edta hardness of water( look at 2010 question 1, it is identical to what came up.

q2- ethyne- know how to draw a labeled diagram of experiment, know what unsaturated and hydrocarbon means,2 physical properties of ethyne, one use

q3- redox reactions

q4- oxidation numbers, gay lusaacs law, weird naming line emisson of hydrogen question, the s & p orbitals, how to find the amount of electrons in 4.6 grams of carbon ( something like that anyways).

q5- ionisation + graph, relative atomic mass + periodic table.

q6- polystyrene experiment on heats of reaction, fuels, oxidation number

q7- chemical equilibrium

q8- acids & bases + ph calculations

q9- IUPAC names of all the "ethan-" + uses + reactions e.g oxidation reaction, dehydration reaction

q10- w/v experiment + oxidation reaction + something i cant remember

q11- suspended solids in water + water treatment. (b) chromatography (c) enviromental chemistry or something.
this is all I remember!

How do you know this was DEB? I had this paper but the bar code was in the top right and I think that means it's Examcraft...



What was the Bishop question and Wuthering Heights question on Examcraft paper? Someone PM please...
