Why do people keep taking business/ managment courses? We have enough blasted managers we need more skilled workers!

True, but I don't take anything for granted!

I've already seen one poster who thinks that if you get more than approximately the minimum for the course, you shouldn't be able to do it....so if his infectious ideas spread beyond his own mind he might stir up his own little army and get half of us rejected form our courses:D

I'm actually considering to use it as a back door into business law/economics....Don't really plan on being a manager at all!

That......makes no sense whatsoever!God some people are such morons.

Rozabeez

Arts for myself, hooray. See you all there, and newbies, seriously....lay off the exclamation marks. They're as dangerous as drugs...

Nerfmenow

Been accepted for Politics, pretty stoked.

Hairspray

Heya just accepted biomed at Maynooth.Im over the moon with it,really am except for the fact that i seem to be the only one of my mates going there so im not going to know anyone:o .Is Maynooth an easy place to make friends?I hope so!

r3nu4l

I found Maynooth to be a great place to make friends and had a brilliant time there Just approach people in your first few days there and you'll be grand. Lab practicals can be a good place to make friends as are the various clubs and societies.

geminilady

I just accepted Arts : )

moggins

got no.1 science yeayyyyyyy

mp3guy

CSSE, hurrah

Enemy Of Fate

Well thats that out of the way.Course offered and accepted.Now the only thing left to worry bout is the fate of my on-campus accomodation....which I will tomorrow!Hopefully it'll be good news....Anyways see you all in 29 days people!

Hate that!

I dont see the point in 1st CSSE anyway now becasue they have changed the course. You are just a 1st Science student and then at the end of 1st year you have the choice to go off and do CSSE or general Science.

If you dont know already:
Your Timetable
http://www.cs.nuim.ie/timetables/Sem1/CSSE1.htm

And your modules
http://www.cs.nuim.ie/courses/modlist.php?coursecode=CSSE&year=1


I will be seeing you in Callan Hall for MT101S, tho I have to pass my repeats 1st

Spank

Yeah thats a pain in the ass, left it until april to announce that, but I got a B2 in Higher physics, so I'm just gonna do mathematical and experimental physics for first year, then drop them as soon as I can.

Like they dont even have anything about it on the website(well so that I can see) about the course changing. The only reason I found out about it was on boards. Though tbh you are missing out on great(crap) modules like doing 2nd yr subjects in 1st yr.

2nd yr will be great 16 hours down from 24 :cool:

Extreme-LoopZ

Another Artser here, can't wait

Tula

B.Sc Multimedia here! I'm so excited anybody else get it?

kisaragi

MH106 Psychology

Anyone else gonna join me? I'll probably be taking Spanish and Philosophy in first year too

lemansky

Accepted MH201 science.
Can't wait, and me living in Maynooth makes it all the handier....:D

dango

Living with the parentals? You'll see the error of your ways soon enough! Freedom ftw!

lemansky

Don't worry I have my bases covered! I have places to crash when I need it, plus all the money I don't have to spend on living expenses can be invested elsewhere if you get me....

I don't have to wash my own clothes, cook for myself, I have a whole hous eto wander around, no rent, bills, I'll survive! All of my friends who are already in college seem pretty happy with that arrangement!

High five right back!Thank you!I actually forgot about that it was a very nice surprise. I am of course going to re-invest it in the local economy....the roost etc:D


I went to 'the other school' because my brother went there years before me so my name was down already! I just went with the flow tbh:cool:

Damn I wish i'd gotten 500 points.Then i'd have guaranteed on campus accomodation....and a big pile of free money...and I could do alot of things with a big pile of free money....

*Imagines making money forts out of €10 notes and then jumping through it screaming ''FREE MONEY!!!!''*

...Yeah that would rock.

Enemy Of Fate

Well thats on-campus accomodation got!Yay!Don't actually know where yet....or what type of room i've gotten......but I'l know whenever the form or whatever comes in the post.Ah well as long as its a single room, thats all that matters.Woo!

lemansky

Good news so Enemy of Fate!
I also got some good news.....I got the form that you need to fill out in order to get that 1000 euro grant!It's all filled out and on it's way back to the admissions office right now.

It says that you get the grant officially presented (and the first 500) 'later on in the first semester'->anyone know when roughly that is?It's just that if it's one of the first two Fridays of college I can't go to this presentation they speak of(I'm assuming it's not gonna be on a Saturday either as both those Saturdays are write offs as well.)

Yep.Only 27 days till I can begin to say ''screw that i'm heading back to the pad!''.Mwhahaha.Twill be awesome!!

a bit premature?

Can't wait to get cracking, kind of sad it's not my school I'm returning to, kind of excited for the new surroundings, kind of nervous for college...

Holsten

The bar helps the nerves.

Rozabeez

Ahhh the excitement. Suppose this calls for another shopping spree so.

sugarattack

Congrats to all (not sure if going to Maynooth deserves congratulations but however).

Make sure to keep your dental dam on you at all times as well.

Apologies if you're joking (my humour and sarcasm metres are both reading unsure), but if you're not..........justify

sugarattack

I'm not joking. I went to Maynooth myself and did Science. At 300pts its not much of a big deal getting in. Maybe it is to some people though.

lemansky

Sorry I took you up the wrong way there I thought you meant it in the sense of NUIM being a crap college...some people have the notion that everything bar one particular college(you know the types) is crap!

No no I agree with you there I'm doing science as well, and, shock and horror, it went up to 305 this year I believe.

Apologies.
