I live near the border and went to school in Cork, so I'm well used to Corkonians! I find people from Cork tend to be lovely.

Well that's good, I guess! XD I'll probably be a bit more quiet than the Cork people ye're used to but I'm sure that'll change soon enough when I settle in!

Make friends with as many of your class as you can. Come exam time it's handy when you have problems with notes or some parts of the course. You're gonna be spending 4 years with them so helping each other out rather than just yourself helps a lot.

Take it easy for the semester but do pass your exams at the end of it! Try out a club/society that's completely new to you.

Only tip you need for first year mech eng is do past papers from day one and make sure you don't have to repeat anything (learned the hard way )

BTW, If you're interested in cars:

I got an offer for Psychology and Sociology.
Not too sure about accepting though. The Sociology part is throwing me off now.
I wonder do they allowe internal transfers? I have the points for just Psychology anyways.

Yeah you can do an internal transfer, just get an internal transfer form from SAA. I don't see why there would be any issue of you switching between particularly as you have the points.

The head of the Bs.c in Psych basically said not a hope when I asked her yesterday.
What does SAA stand for?
