What is your #1 CAO choice?

graceknowsstuff

Soo, I see no-one with the same number 1 as me here!

my top 5:

Drama and Theatre Studies (Restricted) - TCD
English Literature/Drama Studies (Restricted) -TCD
English Studies -TCD
Arts with Theatre and Performance - NUIG
Arts - NUIG

However, it might as well not include 2&3 as both are usually a good bit higher, points-wise, than number 1 (know what I mean?), so it's off to Arts in Galway I go!
I've been accepted into Trinity Drama, depending on points. 500 last year... Anyone know if they're gonna go drastically down?

That is very nice of you, Emma, and how I wish you were marking my papers this summer! Because I would hate the idea of you being a Trinner without me.

It seems like many people are going for the more Science-based courses.
HOWEVER, that may be because all the other Arts heads just don't happen to be on boards at the moment? Too busy flouncing about, no doubt.

Noone else has Applied Psychology in IADT?

2. English Studies - TCD
3. History - TCD
4. English - NUIM (minoring in History)
5. History - NUIM (minoring in English)

If you couldn't tell, I want to do either English, History or a combination of the two!

I'd be delighted with any of the first three, quite happy with 4 and 5, but wouldn't be happy with having to do Arts after repeating. Shouldn't be an issue, though - I hope!

I hope so too! Even though I love History, I've really wanted to study English for third level. Studying the great and iconic literature of the ages sounds like a great way of going about the day!

Good luck with your results!

salthillman

1. Primary Teaching St. Pats
2. Psychology UCD even tho the points are higher than my first choice so it was really just a waste of ink

tigerblob

1. Psychology - NUIM
2. Law and Arts - NUIM
3. Anthropology - NUIM
4. Arts - NUIM
5. Ancient and Medieval History and Culture - TCD
6. World Religions and Theology - TCD

So basically, I have no idea what I want to do.

I love the fact that hardly anyone has maths in TCD down.
