TAP/Liberal Arts Liberties

Hey everyone.
I'm currently a 6th year student, and I have applied for both the TAP and Liberal Arts in Liberties college. I was wondering if anyone here has completed these programmes and if they could share their opinions and mention which college course they got into afterwards? Thanks.

It doesn't take anything special just a little hard work.

Hi,

I did the Liberal Arts Course two years ago and would say it is extremely worth it. I wasn't in TAP but i was in the joint liberal arts class. I got seven distinctions and now attend Maynooth studying arts. There are 4 people from liberties in my class out here also, others went to UCD and Trinity.

Liberties College is a lot of work though also. Just do your bit each week and you'll fly by. It is a shock to the system but DON'T let that phase you. Stick through it and you won't look back, trust me Uni is kick ass

We had a class of 24 and only something like 9 finished it. A lot of people won't see the course through for whatever reason, it takes self belief.

Hope you stick with it.

That's great to hear, I'm glad you got into Maynooth, they have a wonderful arts course.

Yeah when I did my interview they said the work load was heavy enough, but I reckon with consistent work I should be fine. Do you think you have a lot more to do now in uni, or is it about the same?

That's a shocking percentage, I would have thought more people would finish. Oh well, I better just make sure I am one of the ones that does!

Thanks for the response!
