    Yeah, happy to help with any questions about a real law degree. At least you'll be getting down to business with some real work and with some actual legal problems, in the end your studies will bless you with a proper qualification.
    i'll probably take you up on that offer sometime soon

    Oh yeah, forgot to mention I just finished a degree in English, so if you're doing English, or thinking about it, I can at least waffle semi-convincingly about it now. ;)

    At least try middle (and old) english if you get the option. You may have to anyway, but if you don't have to, look at it. It's far funnier and more interesting than it looks.*





















    *I'm really, really biased though.

    english and linguistics graduate here. also have masters in english. the course has changed so much since i did it that i probably don't have much of relevance to say, but i can always be induced to waffle on about my favourite lecturers and so on.

    well I was REALLY hoping to do Arts in UCD. In fact it was my first choice. Unfortunatly I only managed 330 points in the LC. Arts has dropped to 350, which is definatly helpful...but 20 points short may be pushing it for round 2. Oh well, please God I'll get it. I really don't wanna get stuck studying Business for 4 years :(

    Hey don't get too despondent, explore all your options maybe even repeating the LC to get that extra 20 points for Arts if you really want to do it.

    Got 445 so I'm guaranteed straight forward arts, maybe Liberal Arts if the recheck and points/allocation go well...

    Got Liberal Arts yesterday on the 440 - I'm shocked that no other boardsies are doing it tbh!
    Anyone know what the story with picking subjects is? Do we have to go in with the regular art students on the 4th?

    I'd say we could only speculate but more than likely you pick your subjects just like normal arts students and I'd say you're also in on the 4th with normal arts students, however are you sure it's the fourth? I'm helping out with orientation and we're only having our training on the 5th.....

    From what I'm hearing on the radio and reading in the print media, the colleges are finding it hard to fill places this year; don't give up hope yet mate!!

    ^ You poor bastards. ;)

    Nah, you should enjoy it. Just make sure you turn up at your computer labs. They are dead easy, but if you miss a few you will struggle to catch up. Feel free to skip maths lectures. They're shite and completely useless. It is possible to pass maths module by getting notes and learning them in your own time.

    True, you can 1. Bash younger sibling over the head
    2. Hold down large quantities of paper
    3. Keep doors open

    And much much more!
