They won't be putting my picture up in the engineering building by any means but I got my degree and meet the requirements for the masters so I'm happy!

4.0 :O lost for words............... but

delta_bravo

Just got a text from a friend saying he got 3.67 as final gpa. Ouch so close

Tea-a-Maria

I got a first!This is a good start for my birthday.:D

Now,I'm basically certain I have this right,but overall classification for Law is the average of your 3rd and 4th years right?

pljudge321

End of degree GPA 4.06. I may have put in a slight bit more effort than necessary.

ShytePryde

3rd year.

3.07

That shouldn't be allowed. I'd feel better with a 3.06.

Is a 2.1 equivalent to a GPA of 3.2 or 3.4, I can't seem to find a definitive answer anywhere.

2.1 is 3.08.

Ya I'd be fairly sure that's the case. B + L is 50/50, so I'd say Law is the same as they're both 4 years, and both run by the law school.

Thanks, could you tell me where you found that figure? Can't seem to find any info on the UCD website and for obvious reasons I'd like a somewhat definitive answer.

EDIT: Nevermind, found it.

4.18 #standard

[Jackass]

Got a 3.13 for stage one. Meh, whatever, it doesn't count towards my degree and I passed everything, so happy enough. Roll on next year and the serious business!!

After two rounds of results, I think the main thing I learnt from first year is that you never do as well as you think you did, but you never do as bad as you think you did either.

Pretty much the same for me, I got a 3.65. Does anyone know how many grades would have to go up to get it to a first (3.68?)

BlandKitten

Got 4.09 and am quite happy about that, mostly because I got an A in something I was genuinely worried I might have failed.

Oh, you're one of those :rolleyes:

Musefan

Got 3.87 as my degree GPA and an A in my research thesis. Had myself prepared for failure as a family member was diagnosed with a particularly insidious form of dementia during the exam week so much so he couldn't remember who I was and I just drifted in and out of the Rds without really taking anything in. Turns out luck was really with me on the day, considering all the bad luck my family had. Well done to everyone.

How can you think like that? 99.999% of the time I know what result I got within 1 grade each way when I come out of an exam.

Pierce_1991

Got 3.05, bitterly disappointed to miss out on the 2.1. Anyone know any possible ways to get a 2.1 at this stage. I take it it's not possible to take on another couple of modules next year and try and up the grade?

Well we only got one of our assignment results back beforehand and it was shockingly marked, so with another 40% being in other assignments I had no idea how they'd go.
My understanding of the module was quite up and down and I got very lucky with the exam paper.

Does compensation not happen until the final results are published?
I have passed 11 out of 12 modules and have a GPA over 2.0, but my one E grade is not P(C)! Will this happen when the final results are published?

I have a friend...and the exam he failed is compensated already.

Conor108

Yeah I have a P(C) already.

ucd11

Thanks for the replies guys, it was actually a repeat I got the E in, and I just checked and it is P(C) in the original semester I did it in!

meathawk

Just checked mine. 5 As and a B.
GPA of 3.9 - Happy Out

VALIS

MSc student so only had two assessed modules this semester but managed to boost my GPA from 3.46 to 3.55.

On course for a 2:1 if I don't balls up my thesis!:)

Bobby42

Happy with my results, same as last semester. Have a 2:1, now to maintain it!

Got one of them in first year. It doesn't look nice alongside all dem Ds.

On topic, it seems like my GPA gets higher and higher by roughly the same amount each semester. If it goes on like this, I'll have a 4.2 when I'm in fourth year.

Quent Q.

If you pass an exam by compensation but this result brings down your GPA what are the chances of getting them to cancel this pass by compensation?

Would get a better degree classification if I could just sit the exam again.
Anyone any experience of this?

If you owe fees how quick does the hold come of your account? Also when do the provisional results disappear?
