First of all is not the end of the world... it may seem a bit depressing at the moment but try not to panic
I didnt get any cao offers either due to my E in maths :mad: which is definetly BEING APPEALED btw) but luckily i do have a plc to go to thank god :rolleyes: anyway, if your appeal brings you up to your required points and if there are still places left on the course they can offer it to you.. even if its half way through october... besides there are still 2nd round offers to go! oh and keep trying plc colleges u never know, someone may drop out leaving a free spot
best of luck! :pac:

I wouldn't hold out too much hope for going up that much in the rechecks. It's unlikely that all of your subjects were corrected badly, so there's no point spending over 200 euro to get everything rechecked. Just go look at your papers and see if there's anything worth rechecking. If a French teacher is around get them to go through your paper with you as well.

If you do get moved up in the appeals you'll be offered your first choice, either right away or there'll be a place reserved for you on next years course.

But realistically, I can't see you moving up enough in the appeals to get it. Keep an eye on the vacant places list, keep on at the PLC providers, and may also want to seriously consider repeating. Speaking as someone who repeated last year, it's not that bad and the year flies.

Far too early to look for vacant places. They're only put up after all rounds of offers have been made.

The vacant places list is up already ... in fact, it was already up before the offers came out for a few courses which didn't have enough applications, even assuming that every one who applied not the min. requirements and took up their offer.

However, there are likely to be additional courses added in the next couple of weeks. Probably not that many this year though, given the high rate of applications overall.

Also bear in mind that some places advertised are for private fee-paying colleges.

They certainly take people from PLCs / FETAC courses ... see here.

You're going to have to do a bit of research to find a PLC near you which covers what you need though.
