    I know I should be happy but I think I've a point in being pissed off. I got my 1st choice no problem. It was Optometry which opened at 495 points. I got 565. Happy days right? Wrong!!!

    I repeated to get this course and my first time round I got 505 missing it by 10 points last year. So basically if I sat on my back side all year I would have got the place but instead I busted myself in doing the leaving cert again. FML!

    Yeah I can see how that would be annoying, but look on the bright side, you have it at last. :P
    Loads of people repeat for things like that and Medicine and still don't get them.

    I got a PM this morning after waking up and looking at what i knew wasnt going to be nice.. i got my third choice on my CAO after hoping to get Earth Sciences in TCD..

    From : Scrappychimow
    "You didn't get earth science in TCD (470) , but I'm doing it - ahah ah ah aha ha ah ha ha ah ah ah ah ah aha ha haahha ahahhahahahah ah ah ah aha ah ah a,
    ahah ah ah aha ha ah ha ha ah ah ah ah ah aha ha haahha ahahhahahahah ah ah ah aha ah ah a "


    Who does that? i was already annoyed but now im furious.. can this absolute c£$t be banned?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,862 ✭✭✭✭January


    Report the PM, there should be a little triangle with an ! in it at the top of the page, like the report post button.

    Also, posting PM's is against the rules, so I'd edit your post.

    I just wanted Arts in Maynooth, got 375 but the course went up to 380... gonna get my papers rechecked to hopefully get the extra 5 points, but does anyone know from experience how this 2nd offers thing works? it's Arts so I don't think there'll be any places left to go around... :(

    I'd say seeing as you're only 5 points off you've got as a good a chance as anybody of getting offered Arts in the subsequent rounds. I don't know the process from experience though. Hopefully someone in here does. Either that or try do a bit of reading up. Fingers crossed for ya!
