    I think that I had 14 hours in first year for law, history and sociology if that helps? Law hours were about 4 - 6 including a nasty triple on Fridays. I think business had a double before that too...

    Can't wait for the timetables to come out!




    /nerd.


  • Registered Users Posts: 699 ✭✭✭Boeing777


    It is true that Science is 23 hours+ in First year yeah? :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 356 ✭✭Bobsammy


    Pretty much, depending how many labs you do! The upside is there's nowhere near as much reading or assignments as the Arts courses


  • Registered Users Posts: 699 ✭✭✭Boeing777


    Ok I'll be prepared for a busy timetable so!

    Do you have to attend all the lectures or can you skip one or two? ;):pac: I know attendance for tutorials will go towards continuous assessment so I won't be avoiding them. I presume the labs are mandatory?

    GO TO ALL YOUR LECTURES.

    I'm sorry, but that can't be emphasised enough, especially in first year science. Labs are mandatory too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 699 ✭✭✭Boeing777


    Oh I do plan on going to them all I just wondered would it be the end of the world if you couldn't attend one or two of them!

    I'm not going to college for the spin every day! :pac:

    Ah one or two missed isn't the end of the world once you catch up and don't make a habit of it! Labs and tutorials are very important though.

    One or two lectures missed isn't a big deal, but do your best to get to them all. I'd you do miss some, read up on the notes and keep up to date.

    The link in my sig isnt there for show :P

    I have nearly 16,000 tweets. But I'm still on not very many posts on here.
    Is that better, or worse?

    I don't want college to come back, because I'm not coming back. You guys can't continue without me?!

    Haha I'm the total opposite - have loads of posts on here, but only like 700 tweets. I go through phases of using it loads, and then not using it for a few weeks.

    I refuse to join twitter....


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,764 ✭✭✭mickstupp


    I use Twitter as a news feed. Have never posted there though.

    I'm getting excited. I love the going back to college part of the year. The weather hasn't gotten cold and people are so full of enthusiasm and not all stressed like in March/April/May. And I love seeing people I haven't seen for four months. And I love the bit where you've started classes but haven't yet been hit with essay deadlines.
