what came up in your english/irish (higher) or maths (ordinary) papers? Paper 1 in enlgish for us had a comprehensions about horror movies,animals courting and the adolescent brain. If you had this in your chances are our physics are the same aswell... pm me and I'll tell you what came up.

PaulMcG

do you still have the paper? look at the title of the comprehensions....

PaulMcG

PaulMcG

Irish paper 1 HL for me was - Terrorism essay/ trials and troubles of teenagers (all I can remember from essays...), the comprehensions were on JFK and how europe is becoming america.
Irish paper 2 - PROSE: (A) Clann Lir (the children suffered a lot during the 900 years) or Lasair Coille (B) Fiosracht Mná (one was that the woman brought her problems on herself). AN TRIAIL: most of the characters are cold hearted and mean. POETRY: (A) Treall or Bríd óg ní Mháille (B) Chlaon mé mo cheann (something about atmosphere in the poem) HL POETRY: (A) Ur Chnoc Chein Mhic Cainte (B) Mi an Mheithimh. STAIR: Cuirteanna filiochta, Ruraiocht, bardscoileanna, gaeilge sa la ata inniu ann...

My Hamlet question was about Claudius - that he's not completely evil. The other question was with reference to a production of Hamlet you've seen, but I don't remember the exact question because I did the other one.

Same here. They're all the Dublin Exam Commission ones IIRC.

It was a lovely paper actually. Both Dickenson and Boland came up, and Heaney and Wordsworth. Literary Genre and GVV (evil) came up in the comparative. The unseen poem was very happy
