    I guess we'll go with, when you're finished altogether, post-grads and all, if you choose to go down that route.

    21 after a 4-year degree! :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,221 ✭✭✭✭Sangre


    20 after college, 21 after masters, 22 after sitting FE1s and 24 finishing apprenticeship. If I don't take a year out and don't do fe1s this year.

    I'll only be 20. I start work in August and have to go to the states for 2 weeks where i will still be under age. Oh the Shame!!

    24, after starting college at 18 but having a bit of a detour along the way. I don't think I'm going to do a postgrad, maybe 6 years in UCD is enough for anyone!

    My answer to the above poll has changed every two years and very likely will continue to do so:o

    25 or 26 - was 21 when i finished my BA, will be 22 when I finish my MA, and then three or four years to do a PhD...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,487 ✭✭✭boneless


    I will be 41 if I get accepted for the MA... then I might try for the doctor thingy so I can tell the judge I am a real doctor...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,567 ✭✭✭mloc


    22 with a BSc hons.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,016 ✭✭✭Blush_01


    If I don't do the MA next year 21, because I'll probably never get around to going back. God, I could be 50 for all I know. How can you get a conclusive answer from anyone on this? Circumstnaces are in constant flux.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,033 ✭✭✭Chakar


    I will probably be 23 when I finish my education because after my degree in Arts I'm going to have to do another course whether it be a Masters or a diploma or degree.I don't know at this stage.
