    It's a whole new course but if you didn't have anything else to do (ie work or college) it is managable. Actually it's a pity you're not in Cork at the moment, in Deance College there's a class ESPECIALLY for those wanting to get the C in Irish for Primary Teaching. I'm doing Irish again repeating and it takes up more time than anything, it's tough!!! I already got the requirement, I just need points.

    Hey,

    Quick question. I'm 24 working for a year, have a degree and a masters in bus/marketing. If i was to to my LC Honours Irish in June - and just start studying myself now what are the chances of getting a C3 in Honours Irish? I did pass in 2000 and got an A2. What do ye reckon? I'll prob just wait until next year and start it by night in Sept. Hoping to to do Primary teaching!:)
    If you're not studying anything else then I'd say that's well manageable, as long as your standard of Irish isn't absolutely hopeless(With an A2 in pass I'd say you have at least cúpla focal).

    If you can, spend some time in the Gaeltacht.

    ^ Wow!! Good luck with the points.

    History and Ancient History and Archaeology under the TSM in Trinity, and if I don't get the points, Irish Studies in Trinity. Then Arts in NUIM as a last resort.

    Yeah, I am. I put down Econims and Finance first on my Cao on the off chance that I might get the points. I always wanted to do Economics if I was doing Arts anyway, and I like Accounting, so Im sure it wouldnt be the worst thing to do.

    ^What didn't you like the Computer Science, the Lignuistics or both?

    I personally found the Computer Science Lecture at the TCD open day amazing and it helped me cast aside any doubts I had abut the course.

    Exact same for me actually. Although the doubts are creeping back in :eek: It's down as my first choice on my CAO. CS in UCD is second. CS in DIT is in there too and at the bottom CA in DCU

    Wow thanks for the vote of confidence. I only came across the course last month. I was considering a lot of other courses before hand (Computer science, Computer games development, Digital Media Design) which looked grand but none of them jumped out at me. Multimedia did and its gonna be first choice on the CAO form.

    And also I know a lot of people doing a B Ed. in Mary I and they all hate it too. Mary Dry they call it:( .... definitely something to bare in mind if anyone's considering going there

    That's very Cool.

    I'm looking at the very same area as what you were interested in. I've considered Games DEV, digital Media Design etc. but my no.1 choice on my CAO is creative Multimedia in Dundalk. Then Games DEV in Letterkenny and then Games DEV in Dundalk and then Graphic design in Letterkenny.


    How mad is that!

    Law and accounting in UL, prob not gonna get, i've got potential to do well but my innate laziness somewhat detracts from it. Stuck down business in UL second, it'll be disaster if i don't get either of them...... off to FAS to do hairdressing or jam making or something
