It didn't factor into my choice Effluo. But then I was (unexpectedly) a trinity reject so not a whole lot about Maynooth factored into my choice. Still glad I'm here though

The amount of 1st's attained may well have been a factor if there were a lot less awarded in a certain college than in other college.

It would imply what the quality of education was, Now that I think about it....

Anyone I know in UCD or Trinner's(roice) seem to be given a shed load more work than people in Maynooth. Has anyone else noticed this?

What are the stats in terms of % of Firsts awarded in each college?

I did a bit of a google search but could find nothing only stuff relating to Arts students

Yeah, that was my thought as well.
Thinking more, it was actually 20%, since I actually still walked out with the A (77%).

I could see their point, since the screenplays were marked at a different standard than every other essay people did for the other seminars. But I agree we should have had another examiner come in and regrade them. I know for a fact there were people who got cut from 70+ down into the 50s who did deserve a higher mark than they walked out with. :/
