    WOO! all my obsessive refreshing paid off, i got a 2.1 :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 418 ✭✭stereoroid


    Just so happens I'm up, and got my results. It's only 1st year, but still... AABBCC, slightly better then first semester, for a 3.4 GPA on the year. I have some queries about the exams, however, in a couple of cases I was marked far below what I expected from them, and I no idea why. (Are they marking to a bell curve?)

    Congrats to everyone who finished with good grades!

    passed everything at christmas, but 3 of my results have E(C) BESIDE THEM.whats that mean? compensation?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 192 ✭✭irish.rugby.fan


    Finished with 3.51 which I think is a high enough 2.1

    Fingers crossed itll be enough to get me the MAcc in Smurfit !!


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,246 ✭✭✭✭Riamfada


    It says under your grades what you got. Its a 2:1 alright


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,435 ✭✭✭TiGeR KiNgS


    OMG......... 3.45 2H1 second class honours grade 1


    Thank **** its all over.............

    Did I hear someone say Post-graduate
    WOOOOOOH!!!!!!

    HHAHAHAHAHA B+ Advanced Macroeconomics and i thought i would fail just goes to show what i know.

    did they calculate 6 of the best from last year? mine doesnt seem to have adjusted .


  • Registered Users Posts: 716 ✭✭✭lemon_sherbert


    Yay!!!
    3.87, a+ a+ a a a- b+
    Cramming is so worth it:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 108 ✭✭wandering_star


    So far 3.67
    (shakes fist, I mean, c'mon! 0.01..jaysus, in saying that I am happy)
    However the results for one of my courses isn't up yet (yes I am aware it's still early, but I'm slightly worried).
    I've checked and I am registered for the course, and I did take the exam and do all the work for it....anyone else have that problem? :o

    Well done so far lads, woo!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,121 ✭✭✭dajaffa


    ABBBBCC, one much worse than I thought, another way better than I thought so meh! It's odd though they're by far the best results I've gotten despite the fact that it was the hardest semester I've ever had AND I missed 3 straight weeks of college... hope the trend continues in 4th year!

    (And I never really liked them before but I think I might kiss the lecturer who gave me an A+ in a 50% practical!)


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,336 ✭✭✭Frank Grimes


    3.9! Somehow I managed an A+ on a 100% exam module. Got a 1st overall for 2nd year, so that's a good way to start the day!


  • Registered Users Posts: 871 ✭✭✭gerry87


    4.2 this sem, So F$@%;IN HAPPY!

    3.99 overall for a first.
    did they calculate 6 of the best from last year? mine doesnt seem to have adjusted .

    were you in mode 1 economics?

    edit: i see what you mean, it doesnt really add up for 6 best from last year, i dont know where they pulled my GPA from!

    Thank God the wait is over wooo!!! Got a B+ in the one I thought I failed so delighted with all my results! Well done everyone!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,228 ✭✭✭Breezer


    3.65 - damn it, so close! :p But I'm happy :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,598 ✭✭✭ferdi


    ok just to confirm, when it says "Final GPA Award Award Description" and gives me a 2:1 - that is the grade for my whole degree, right? i mean, they dont have to start adding that to my previous grades to work out my 'final' score?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,847 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Hi, I'm repeating half of my final year, I joined before modularization/ I got this result.

    40439 ZXXP 4003 Pre-Modular Achievement St 3 C- 30

    Stage 3

    COMPLETE 60 60 2.38

    Is that a pass or a 2.2.? I thought a C- was a 2.2?

    Is it marking me out of 60? Because I only did 30 credits.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,598 ✭✭✭ferdi


    thats a 2.2


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,847 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Hmm ok thanks, because it says pass at the bottom :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,598 ✭✭✭ferdi


    actually yeah, its a pass...sorry man, its early :/


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,685 ✭✭✭Tom65


    3.4 GPA for the semester. I wasn't sure how those went so I'm happy. 4 Bs, an A and a C. I'm a bit annoyed at that C because 30% was continuous assessment so I knew I had an A going in, but I fluffed the exam.

    Still, no point dwelling and the other results I'm happy with.


    (Also, I was lying in bed at 2am wondering if they were up. Checking then would've saved me getting up so early. Ah well)

    I refuse to pay attention to this GPA nonsense, I want my degree to have the old way of marking on it! 3.18 overall. Actually managed to get an A in one of my subjects and they gave my thesis a B :eek: I must really have a way with words.
