    Has anyone in Science got anything from Trinity yet?

    I feel like I'm waiting for a guy to call me back after a date.
    WHY HASN'T HE CALLED? :p

    Not me anyway!

    I'm doing Business and Computing. Im wondering why does my course's registration take place on the Thursday while everybody elses is on the Monday. Seems really odd to me that our 'Sports Tour' happens before registration. :confused:

    We(CompScience) are due to register at 9.15 on Thursday too, so it must be an IT/Informatics thing.

    All the courses have them on different days (http://www.tcd.ie/vp-cao/sro/vpsroregp.php) some don't even register until Friday. It's probably just to keep things from getting too packed. Mine's not on Monday either so I wouldn't be too worried about it if I were you. :)

    Have you accepted your course offer online? If you have then its not necessary. Its just a way of accepting your place by post instead of on the CAO website

    I recieved an orientation booklet with general information and some forms for Fees etc but no registration forms as such

    Is this the only material I should have received - should I have recieved anything else and will I be reciving anything else?

    Me too. :D Love the timetable, bet it changes to include a few 9am mornings which would involve almostnever crawling out of bed at 6 or so for the 7am bus... <_< Wonder what way seminars and stuff are added onto the timetable, too. T'will be interesting to see how it pans out, looking forward to it all though! :)

    Well for the first term you will have Legal Skills class starting on week one , well maybe two depending on what group your in. You'll get a booklet about it during freshers week and will have weekly work to do for it. This class works like seminar. The Seminars start four weeks into term. You'll usually have one on one week and two on the next with it rotating like that till the end of term.

    For essays you'll have a really small for legal skills which counts for nothing. And over Christmas you'll have one counting for 20% in constitutional law. Word of advice try do this before the holidays (you get the titles in the 1 st class) as its no fun writing an essay over Christmas.

    Hey to all the Engineering guys, do you reckon I could get away with not doing that Chemistry course, as I've never done Chemistry before?

    Yeah I didn't get a bank giro or anything like that, maybe they don't send them all out in the one go?

    I'd recommend doing it, as the course starts assuming you have a decent knowledge of chemistry. That being said, you could be able to get away with it, depending on how much work you put in.

    Agreed, it's a bit of a step up from the comfort zone of a small secondary school. :rolleyes:
