    animation in iadt... the deal is that you make a portfolio and send it to the college, they mark it out of six hundred and this score is combined with your leaving cert score and this determines weather you get in or not... for example last years point were 780, the year before(the first year of the degree course on cao) was around 645 i think

    RE:Timay
    thats what i do too. In my Longley essay i only had about 5 qoutes seperated from the answer on their own lines. The rest of them were structured into the answer to make sentences.

    Longley goes through a process of dehumanising the "civil servant" who "was preparing an ulster fry for breakfast" when he was invaded by the ira and left for dead
    "someone walked into the kitchen"
    "and shot him"
    "a bullet entered his mouth".

    i think the poetry q is important because they can make a big difference. I did no poetry q in my mock and got 55% but if i had done my longley q in the mock it would have brought me up to about 65-66%!!
    ive given up on doing 5 poets, not to mind 4, because its just too much at this stage. so ive done three nearly definites Yeats, Dickinson and longley(not so sure about this one) but hes easy so i learned him.he hasnt come up since 2001 and 2002

    We told use two quote per point, 6 point, each with 2 little subpoint. My teacher she strict but she say do like baby cham bell nad make into sentance because it make it look like you real know poem and that you can used poem to prove point,

    If it any help she alwyas shout "state, quote, explain, re state with proof" I know no what it mean but it is meant to be tip of good essay.
