Very nice I used to want to do primary teaching, and then I decided I couldn't handle that age range in large doses and I didn't fancy doing Irish after this year :P I'm awful at languages tbh.

That's the thing, and their hours seem awful, almost full days every day = SCHOOL ALL OVER AGAIN... ! Youre crap at languages and im DREADFUL at maths oh god

I've had to give Maths some serious attention in the last month to ensure I get a good grade, and I'm in ORDINARY level :P I think things are shaping up to be okay though, for the midterm before my mocks I spent 90% of my study time on Maths and I think it paid off ^^

Of course it is. Just keep on top of them (and also your OL subjects), and I'm sure you'll get it!

Medicine first, law second.

Which schools? And law and medicine spare very different yano:)what's your points averaging?

I did the leaving last year and went to UCC and did Arts, now I'm repeating, I wouldn't recommend Arts unless you REALLY know what you want to do at the end of the degree e.g secondary teaching or absolutly LOVE the subjects you intend to study. It can be a bit all over the place.

Anyone thinking of doing Journalism? If so where and why?

Conchor

1st Choice: Arts in UCD, Two subjects:History and Geography
2nd Choice: Arts in NUI Galway
3rd Choice: Arts in UCC
4th Choice: Interactive Applications Design & Development in DKIT
Then the rest are level 7 computing courses.

Points coming in at about 475-80 mocks not all back yet would be hoping for 500 come june of which I'm fully capable ... hoping for ucc! What about you guys?

Colinoneill

Good luck to anyone doing hpat in the next while!

I got 450 in the mocks and I've projected around 515 in the leaving if I increase each grade two steps. Need 550 or so, I better get cracking.

1-10 is all Psychology for me! Praying for Trinity or UCD, so I'll need to lock myself in my room for the next few months I reckon.

Medicine in ucd
Law and business in tcd
Science in ucd
Business and law in ucd
BESS in tcd
Commerce in ucd
Arts (economics and sociology) in ucd
Forestry in ucd

Biomedical Science in UCC hopefully but the points keep going up and up... 535 in 2012!

Second choice is Biological and Biomedical Sciences in NUIM which is much more comfortable at 460 but Maynooth is so far from south Tipp I'd much prefer Cork.

Points from the mocks coming in at around 450 without studying, time to get into the books!

Haha yeah the forestry one is a bit of a pisstake tbh but yeah I'm pretty glad that I'd be more than happy to do any of them

yournerd

wow youre all out of my league.

Say it Aint So

Okay lads, has any else still got no idea what to put on as 1st choice? Or am I the only one?
I'm a capable student, will probably achieve 550+ points. Have no idea what to do.
Money or passion, what's more important? I'm freaking out a little bit at this stage......

No don't worry! Initially I had my heart set on art college until 5th year, then multimedia and computer based courses were my first and currently biomedical science is my first.

I'm curious as to know what I will end up doing. What subjects are you doing/enjoy?

Passion for sure. Don't do a course just because there is a job with good pay for it in the end if you don't enjoy it. Only choose a course you will enjoy. Nothing else should influence it.

Squidgy Black

1st choice is Computer Science in UCD
2nd is Computer Science in Trinity
3rd is Computer Science in DIT
4th is Digital Media Engineering in DCU
5th is Computing in DIT
6th is Computing in NCI

Thinking of throwing in Arts in UCD, or accounting and finance in DCU when the change of mind rolls around.
