    My course was 475 last year, but with increased demand and the bonus for maths I'm expecting it to go up. My worst fear is getting something like 490 and not being sure if it'll be enough, and having to wait 5 days for the offers before I find out :( Or worse still, the cut off point being 490 but with random selection and then not getting in! I'm aiming for 500+, I just hope I get it.

    Demand for my course went up 46%, it was 410 last year but with that increase and the bonus points....it'll rise a fair bit. I'm worried it'll go up to like 470 or something.

    God that's a lot worse than mine! Demand for all science courses in Trinity went up by 13%. And that's the people putting them down as first choice, not the overall demand.

    I read it in on the UCD website, it was actually a 44% increase in first preference.

    The link is here, http://www.ucd.ie/news/2012/03MAR12/080312-CAO-first-preference-figures-rise-108-at-UCD.html

    It just has info on a few UCD courses though.

    It's mentioned specifically in that Trinity article (pure maths) since it's so RIDICULOUS. :(

    It isn't horrific :D
    I don't mind repeating. I've learned every course and for next year all my work would consist of perfecting answers and polishing off my English essays.
    Sciences are all sorted, nothing new to learn.

    Maybe if college wasn't like a ticket out of here for me I'd feel differently about repeating, living in the middle of nowhere and the thought of having to go back to my old school are the worst parts. Glad repeating wouldn't be so awful for you :)

    Actually I'm so glad I'm not in the year below me in school, half of them are really disruptive from what I've heard and the "alternative" type people are really boring. My friend skipped fourth year and she's so glad she did because our group are so much more awesome than the people she used be friends with. :L

    What're the year below ye in school like?

    Found a general breakdown of applications this year! Can't seem to find anything about applications for Biomed in NUIG though.

    I wouldn't go back to school. No point of going back. Repeat as an external.

    I just googled "trinity cao 2012 demand".
    I think I'm okay though - on rereading it looks like that includes the TSM people, which is (hopefully!) a huge percentage. It's Maths.
