how many more ponits do you need compared to your mock results?

baby*cham*bell

i got 400 and i need to get about 460 to gaurentee my 2nd choice-its 430 (not really aiming for my first cos its at least 530!)
i'm doing 6 honours (pass maths)

Creamy Goodness

first choice was in 2004 220 points
in the mocks i got 225
i'm hoping to get a 60 points increase.

I got 560 on my mocks, and I need 365.

So I'm not exactly under pressure.

Science in UCD. I think it might go up to about 410 or 420 this year.

Meh.

spare some points for the needy? (if only)

Yes indeed. If only.

sugar lumps

Did you seriously get 560 in the mocks?! Thats incredible! I thought I was great with my 470! If I got that in the mocks I wouldnt do a stroke of work between them and the real exam! By the way does anybody know of anyone who got lower in the real thing than in the mocks? I'm so scared thats gonna happen to me!

i know a girl who got 580 and was disappointed. bitch!

Yea someone got 440 in mocks and 430 in real thing.
I got bout 265 in mocks, looking for 350

Shyster

not trying to scare you, but i know of a good few people who went down pointswise in the real thing..I suppose they thought they were ok when they got pre results and didnt keep it up....:(
im hoping to go up 20 to get my second choice.
It might be just me but did anybody else put down completely unattainable courses as their number one, "just in case..." ?!

BraveheartGal

i got 440 and last year it was 400

didnt do my history mock tho,..was sick that day
and irish, he told us the questions on the paper, and translated bout 1/2 the questions in the aural paper for us.............i know

but all my papers (minus irish obviously) was my own work so i was pretty happy

65 more, minimum..


doomed

I know someone who went down in the real thing, it happens. They take the foot off the pedal and BAM! no college for you!

I got a dreadfull 160 points in hte mocks. I think I need about 350 points for an Honours Degree in computer science. I'm fairly screwed unless I go for the level 7 or possibly even the level 6 courses instead.

420 in mocks, need about 450 for architecture in Queens belfast.

Da_IRISH_ONE4U

i failed 4 of my 7 mocks so i need about 300 extra points in my leaving.

TheDoc

I need 300 in me leaving. Got 245 in mocks and did **** all. I do 3 pass subjects so I hope I'll be alright.

randomfella

got 455 mocks
need 485 based on 2004 points

so need to pull up by 30 points, difficult enough when i seen some papers night before. Biggest regret doing that now, cos i'm not sure where i stand.


Scraped a pass with no study in higher maths, but ever since i've been practicing a lot but i'm not sure it makes a difference. Kind of regret not dropping down to Ordinary to spend more time on other subjects. Completed paper 1 with an hour and a half to go. Round the same for paper 2. I still hope to get C1 possibly B3. But thats hoping. Just to have it as a fall back subject, in case of a dodgy paper on history or even geography.

baby*cham*bell

history is sooooooooo going to be dodgy, i have a bad feeling.
still hopin for an A in geography though, but i'd settle for the B!

Got 470, need 360, want 530

May i ask what course you need 360 for?

Waltons

Wow, it's gone down. Comp Sci through arts in UCD. It's 340 now but might fluctuate a bit (downwards probably given recent trends). Scholarship was 530 last year so hopefully it'll stay the same or just change a bit.

You're kinda on the same boat as me.

I'll be doing Science in UCD and I need 530 too for the same reason.
