But on the other hand, computer science gets a BA(Mod), as do maths and theoretical physics. Law doesn't.

Whoops, sorry, I think you're right. The B.Sc. (Comp.) seems to be for evening courses only, which would make sense - presumably they're more vocationally oriented than the regular course. I guess computer science, maths and TP don't give you as specific a training for one career as, say, nursing or engineering.

That's correct, the B.Sc one is an evening course. The BA(Mod) one is the normal one.

I spent most of the year in LG12. I found out the morning of one of my exams there was an entire section we'd covered that I thought we didn't. I got the book for another course 3 hours before the exam. All that and I was working in the SU shop instead of studying :P

Kevin_rc_ie

my post wasn't aimed at you directly shov'la. but if you think it applies, you know better than me.

any way it's usually the girls that panic.

You'll find that pinks is not a sport scholarship. The University Colours here are pink (Oxford and Cambridge being blue) and are awarded to those who excel in sport whilst at Trinity, although in recent years pinks have been awarded willy nilly to lots of people who in my opinion are unworthy but this is another debate altogether.
The colour pink arises as it was the racing colour of Queen Elizabeth and has absolutely nothing got to do with gays. Schools such as Abingdon also share Queen Elizabeth's racing colour.
Good explanation of the university colours: http://www.tcd.ie/Clubs/Boat/pinks.php

He never said it did; it was a joke, as I understand it.

Kevin_rc_ie

it t'was. but in fiarness, calling a pink a sports scholarship is hardly a million miles off the mark.

Passed I Guessed?

Chick

Yep!! Shock to both you and me Joe!

We didn't get a breakdown of results which was a bit annoying, just said pass/fail etc. We get feedback when we go back...

Make sure to ask a mate to check up on the timetable when it comes out, cos you won't be able to view it! Or just send me an email after july, I'll go get a quick look and tell you non-bindingly when you're on, if you're on. Most of the repeat exams don't start the 13th anyways.

The PM has been sent.....

wayfarer - fall down on a subject or two in the exams?

wayfarer

Yeah, 2. Im not that suprised but I was still hoping that I could scrape a compensation. It wasnt to be though.
