    I'm trying to gain access to this course through a FETAC level 5 course is there anyone who has gotten into the course through the same route and if so what grades did you achieve in your modules.

    Also, does anyone know around how many FETAC students they take into this course?

    They don't publish this stuff online and everything is pretty vague and uncertain.

    The only way onto the course is through CAO. There are no places reserved for students in FETAC courses but the pharmacy assistant course gives a very solid foundation in the practical pharmacy subjects. FETAC students tend to do well in OTC medicines, pharmacy administration and dispensing.
    The grades they get tend to depend on how hard they worked and their level of interest in subject so that information is not something that would be collated and published.

    It says on their website that you can gain access through a FETAC?

    That just means that having a FETAC course makes you eligible to get in and will improve your chances of admission, it doesn't gaurantee you a place. You should contact the admissions office and get the details for what will be required for 2016.
