    I know I won't get the five done! I'm planning on learning just 3/4s of some of the essays I think will come up so as not to waste my time learning things that I'm not even gonna get a chance to write about! Sounds risky, but at this stage I'm desperate. My teacher is probably the worst in the country, he never actually taught us history, just gave us some essay books and told us to learn them! So I'm either gonna get a B or an F. Here's what I HOPE TO GOD will come up:
    A. Michael Davitt
    B. First Inter-Party govt
    C. French 3rd Republic
    D. Russia under Stalin/Cold War
    ....and my research topic. Pray for me!

    Hopefully I'll get maybe 4 and a half done. I'll try and get all 5 done if I know them all.

    with this i can empathise, both subjects require you know a freaking myriad of information. Worse still is learning things off such as definitions in business and quotes in history not to mention who they are by. Ah well....

    we were aloud start ten minutes early last year still under pressure though keep the head down and once you sit down in the exam centre just start writing special topics immediately they can't stop you if they know the present history course although it is an incredible relief to complete the exam its such an indurance test

    good luck and keep the spirits high :)

    so true, i thought it was a bit like tech graphics for junior cert. I nearly died at the end of it. The length killed me with my mind focused for so long. The worst feeling will be, if u can't answer 2sections and ur sitting there with an hour to go thinking of nothing.
