just dropped down to pass maths this year and oh GOOD GOD is it easy.

points: 530 or thereabouts

course: history and politics would be nice but its points are usually sky high, if not that then pure history will do me

conZ

Holey shít, ye're all aiming fairly high, even though some of ye are doing one or even two Ordinary Level subject's - You might be leaving it a bit tight .

Following a detailed examination of subjects, I'm gonna hope for 450 (I calculated 430). Don't think i'll come near ~480 for Architecture. I'll always have Art's, Architectural Engineering or Construction anyways. Just looking at the GMIT site, might do Construction Management there - only 345 points in 2001.

im trying not to aim for a certain amount of points cos i know im gonna do crap:(

Kold

Yea, well i was aiming on my so-called "potential" but tbh i doubt ill manage it seeing as im doing it all in one year, Tbh i'll have to have a look at the UCAS form before i give a proper aim, im guessing ill get 450+ i want either psychology or architecture, failing that i'll haul a portfolio down for art&design

I'm doing:

Irish OL
English HL
Maths HL
Applied Maths HL
French HL
Physics HL
Chemistry HL
Accounting HL

I'm hoping to get about 450-500 points. Should be fairly achievable as long as i get an A1 in accounting (as i expect) and get at least C's in the rest.

I want to do Commerce in either NUIG or UCD. Hopefully will go on to do accounting.
Hence the A1 hopes.

I wouldn't, it's not worth much.

Kold

Yeah, lol, im aiming 485+ and my xmas results were barely above 300. But i missed 2 weeks due to tonsilitus and 3 of my subjects are brand new to me so i have an excuse, but that doesn't mean that i aint gonna do crap in the lc... The hardest thing is knowing that you COULD do better

PHB

Actualy Kold I think the hardest thing to know is that you couldn't do better.
