Exam Results

sAid

Just wondering when the exams results are out? and is it different for each course or are all the results given out at once

rainbow kirby

They're different for every course.

From the Exams Office website

I had a fcekin' dream that I was still doing exams but forgot to go in for them... woke up in a lather!!!


I hate this wait for the results; it's almost as bad as doing the actual exams...

Font22

i havent thought about them tbh. i know i'll do my usual panic crap a couple of days before they come out. too late now, i cant do anything. who needs a good degree anyways??

Blush_01

Ah now lads, what's this about exam results already? Sure we've only just finished the exams! Too soon/too late to worry now!

elmyra

Damn you all I'd completely forgotten about the whole results thing! Gah!

*runs away whimpering*

There, there 'Shinners'... always remember to think happy thoughts

I failed. Two exams. ****. Anyone else just find out they failed? Theres comfort in numbers.

Dave!

InFront

My results were out today. Actually they were out yesterday, I just didnt check them til today cos I kept putting it off. Its really worrying because my course is quite tough and I have been working flat out since Christmas tring to pass one of them, the other one Im just really crap at.

*Edit: have just spotted irony of last sentance

I've spent the last month or so reading about interrailing and getting excited, and if I fail one exam, that's the plan out the windowwwwwww double plus

I just wish they'd hurry up and give us the results. The extern examiner was in for CS this week... so there's no reason why we should have to wait much longer.

Font22

word on the street (i'm so hard) is that B+L results are out monday week!!!!! i thought it wouldnt be until july!!!!

besty

Who told you that Font?

Font22

one of my many contacts. ok if i'm honest............ alison i think!

TheVan

Ah Font22, you did really well, you and I know it!

If its monday week, thats the day I start work....god, could I go drinking and go in hungover on my second day??

Ah I'd say it will be nearer to the 5th as they said, remember christmas and last summer? contacts kept telling us new dates until it reached the date they actually promised us!

Font22

never say never theVan..............
i dont want the results cause i'll be going away the friday after the supposed date and i dont want to ruin my holiday!!

Stepherunie

ask the lecturers when the boards are on if you can, ours was held today and results were posted today - a week early so it's good to check it out.

Red Alert

never harms to check the SIS right throughout the day. if you're at work and you've net access do at least one check in the morning, lunch hour, mid and late afternoon. results can appear on it at very funny times.

Blush_01

I'm honestly starting to feel physically sick at the prospect of getting my results. Why did they have to be brought up so early, talking about them won't make you pass if you've failed or vice versa...

Font22

you didnt have to look at the thread if u didnt want to!!!!

Pythia

I have two of mine. One is as expected, the other is about 10% lower than expected but what most people would still consider good.
Just waiting on three now.

Sangre

Yep I got 45% in the oral I didnt go to. Dont worry about the oral though,most people fail them.Ive only ever passed one that ive been to but I would always reccomend going to them,It doesnt look good if you dont turn up for the oral.I was lucky it worked out for me this time.

Riamfada

are the modularisation results out on the 30th or before. I remember in the exam hall the notice said "results will be out no later that June 30th" which implies that they may be out before then?

I'm just pissed off because mine aren't out for almost a month and I'm starting to worry already, especially because I had so much on my mind at the time of the exams that I didn't care, or concentrate, and now I'm hugely regretting it. Woohoo!!! (Sorry, wrong thread! :rolleyes: )

InFront, get them checked! So many people don't bother, if you feel you should have done better, get your papers checked. If you're wrong, no huge loss. If you're right, no repeats. Ok chick?

InFront

Theres no point the department who teach the failed course is very specialised and small and I reckon theyd just be pissed off having to dig out my paper and go through it again. Anyways they gave me a breakdown and my entire attempt was seemingly brutal. *Load Moan* Ah its not all bad UCD is looking its best during the Summer I suppose:)

Blush_01

Scroo that, I'd try it anyway.

Blatant spamming by the Mod? :eek: (I'll bet he's not even wearing his peachy pants! For shame! )

So, anyone else get results? Why the hell can't they give me my results so I can see if there's any point in wasting the €20 it costs to apply for the masters? That's almost 7 drinks at home!

As regards anonymous marking, why is the Student Number required on the exam paper? Most (if not all) departments and lecturers have a list linking each name and Student No., and so the use of an unlinked exam no. seems pointless when the student no. is also required. Although I am sure that many examiners are paragons of integrity, I have heard of smaller departments that make no secret about the fact that they are biased by each student's personality and mark accordingly. So, why is an exam number not used in isolation when anonymous marking is stressed as such a fundamental requirement?

If a lecturer has some kind of bias towards you, they can find a way to work out who you are, even if you just use exam numbers. Personally I think this anon marking is stupid as I know it's not. I would be happy to have my name on the page when they mark it though.

I've gotten to the stage where I'm checking the SIS student web 3 times a day... I really just want to get my results and be done with things.

I have a manic obsession with SIS at the moment... I want the suffering to end! I saw all the School of History heads going for a session on Tuesday... they had the extern with them so the papers are all ready marked and checked!!

tribulus

im hoping they'll be out by tomorrow, provisional date is the 23rd but usually a week before, come on 50%!!
