There's nothing on the exams website. Your best bet would be to contact the Exams office though they're usually not out til a few weeks before the exams...

sorry to bump this but kinda need to know!! anyone got an idea of when they out

Vorsprung

Did you ring the exams office?

From their site:

Examinations take place in Summer, Autumn and/or at the end of each Semester. Examinations may be held outside this period but you should be notified of this by your Course Director. Provisional timetables are posted on the website two to four weeks before the commencement of examinations. Candidates should notify the Registrar's Office (Registration) immediately of any change of address. Examinations are scheduled morning, afternoon and evening (Modular Arts), Monday to Saturday.

I suppose you are in Arts? That's awful to give you so many exams.

Chinafoot

Hmm, not too bad really.

Tuesday 9th at 2pm (History 1)
Thursday 11th at 9:30am (English 1)
Friday 12th at 9:30am (History 2)
Tuesday 16th at 2pm (History 4)
Saturday 20th at 2pm (History 3)
Monday 22nd at 9:30am (English 2)

Don't mind the Saturday since its in the afternoon and thank Christ I have no double days.

rainbow kirby

Quite well spread out for me
Friday 12th May - Unix Operating System - 11am
Monday 22nd May - Data Structures and Algorithms 2 - 9am :eek:
Wednesday 24th May - Maths for Computer Science - 2pm.

I'm happy enough, I don't have any Saturdays and I don't have any consecutive days. Looks like I may be able to get away without studying until the study week again.

Blush_01

9.30-12.30 Thursday May 11th RDS (18th)
9.30-12.30 Monday May 22nd RDS (19th)
2.00- 5.00 Monday May 29th Blackrock (English Medieval Texts)
9.30-12.30 Wednesday May 31st Blackrock (Gender and Sexuality in Shakespeare)
2.00- 5.00 Wednesday May 31st Blackrock (Language in Ireland)
9.30-12.30 Friday June 2nd Blackrock (Irish Theatre Controversies)


So mine stretch from the 11th of May to the 2nd of June, and STILL they have two on the same day. Poo? I think so. Plus, the chairs in Blackrock are horrible rickety wooden things that leave splinters in your arse.

Ah well, at least I only have to do my finals once, right? *laughs nervously*

beanyb

Mine arent too bad I suppose, no Saturday exams or two in one day like I had last year! And I finish nice and early on the 23rd.

Mon 8th May 9.30-12.30 (History 1)
Tues 9th May 9.30-12.30 (Politics 1)
Thurs 11th May 2.00-4.00 (Pol 2)
Mon 15th May 2.00-5.00 (Hist 2)
Tues 16th May 2.00 - 5.00 (Hist 3)
Wed 17th May 2.00 - 4.00 (Politics 3)
Mon 22nd May 9.30 - 12.30 (Politics 4)
Tues 23rd May 2.00-5.00(Hist 4)

The consecutive days are a bit of a bitch... but meh I had all my leaving cert exams one after the other with no breaks til I finished and got through it so I think I'll survive.

Hermione*

Does anybody else not finish til June? :eek: I don't which of the seven politics papers have my courses yet (I only need to sit four), but even if I'm lucky I'm not finished til the 24th ... or else the 2nd/7th June, what joy!

Thu 11th May - Politics 5 (what?)
Fri 12th May - History 2
Tue 16th May - History 4 (seriously... what?)

Wed 24th May - Politics 7

WTF?!!!!! Have just been to the politics dept (or dept of evil, as I'll now be calling it); I'll have sat all four history and three of my four politics exams by the 22nd May, and my last exam is the 7th June ! That's four weeks to sit eight exams! :eek:

besty

Good god, I checked mine earlier and it's not good.

Start on the 9th of May - International Business Law
11th May - MER
12th May - Commercial Law
13th May - Land law.

Seriously, WTF. 4 finals in 5 days.

TheVan

Besty I'm with you on this one! Look at mine...

8 - Corporate Finance Law
9 - International Business Law
11 - Managing Employee Relations
13 May - Land Law

That's disgraceful considering they're finals....I'll be glad to be off early but not happy about my finals being affected cos of some inconsiderate git in the examinations office!

Font22
