    Can anyone give me some info on general/children's nursing courses in TCD and UCD? I note that there are two courses in TCD, and that they're both lower points than UCD. I've also heard anecdotally that the Tallaght course in TCD is, well... awful. No idea why though.

    Any insights?

    I did my nursing in the UK but did midwifery in UCD. Its a fantastic school with lots of resources and skills labs. Got a great education there, its convenient to get to and easy to navigate.

    What information are you looking for? I'm in the Children's & General class in DCU. It's a great college with lots of resources & a new nursing building. I've met some of the Children's & General class from UCD while on placement & they said that their course was great & very enjoyable too. The only difference I can see is the hospitals that they are partnered with. Trinity have Tallaght, UCD have Crumlin & DCU have Temple street. I am loving it so far.
