    I have Physio in TCD down number two on my CAO but I just read this on the qualifax site:
    -SPECIAL ENTRY REQUIREMENTS:
    Leaving Certificate
    OC3 or HD3 Mathematics
    HC3 In two of physics, chemistry, biology, physics/chemistry,
    mathematics or agricultural science

    Combinations of subjects not permitted:
    Physics/chemistry with physics or chemistry Agricultural science with biology

    I'm doing Biology and Ag Science and i'm using them for points can I do this course? or can i only count one of them for points?

    They'll count the higher of the two for points.

    Fúck. Looks like i'm not going to TCD doing Physio after all.:(

    Why wouldn't you be able to go as long as you have the points and the entry requirements?

    You can count biology and agri science for points BUT you need either physics, chemistry or maths to meet the entry requirements!

    I think that's it anyway!

    My interpretation of this is you can count both Biology and Ag Sci for points but you need a HC3 in one of them and another science or maths.

    That's how I'd read it too, i.e. you need a HC3 in Maths and ONE of AgSci or Biology, in the OP's case.


    Check the course details on the TCD site, OP, may be clearer.

    If I can only count one of Biology and Ag Science for points I won't get Physio in TCD (530)

    Ouch!

    Well, check it with your careers teacher or with Admissions in TCD when things calm down a bit, don't rely on us, but yeah, that one may not be an option tbh.
