    If such a thing were to be decided, it would not happen until the marking conferences which are at the end of June/beginning July.

    Please don't rely on the 'Irish Independent' for the truth about anything.
    They probably 'researched' their story on boards.

    It was just the wrong colour is all. Woodland is marked with small trees surrounded with a border. I believe it was in the bottom right of the OS Map, it was around the river shannon.

    Possibly. It will depend on the exam conferences and then what they see in the marking. If there is what seems to be widespread confusion, then yes, they will make allowances for it.

    It's the Junior Cert., it's not a final year college exam.

    Don't worry about it anyway, there is nothing you can do about it now.
    Look forward, not back.

    The Teacher Associations give their opinions to the SEC after every exam.
    This has happened for years and it is used to inform the marking conferences.
