Exam Timetable

Goldshlager

Hey,

I know they re-issued the exam timetables last Friday.
However the venues aren't included.

Just wondering when do they normally tell us this?:pac:

Ask in student services , if you haven't already !

Apparently, the venues should be confirmed by next Monday.

Lots of students do Arts so you need a big area to fit them all in! The Neptune and the Mardyke Arena tend to be the most common places for exams.
Last year I had 3 in the Neptune, 3 in the Mardyke and one upstairs in the Student Centre.

Ah it's not that far out the way. I usually walk there: just start at the bottom of Shandon Street and keep walking until you reach the turning.
And of course there's the bus that the SU organise. Details of that will be sent in an email sometime in April.

Any time i've been up there i've got the bus alrite...bit too much of a walk for me:D:D

It is pretty far outta d way in comparison with the mardyke or having an exam on campus tho...

I'm out there for two, but they're both at two o'clock so it could be worse...

sleepyescapade

Like last year, I am in Neptune for my first exam and Mardyke for my last.

How reliable is the bus to Neptune? Heard stories of people being too late for exams cos the bus left too late...I've a few 9.30am exams there.

What bus goes to Neptune? How long does it take to get up there? Don't have a clue...

It's organised by the SU so they'll send an email at some point explaining where to get the bus, what times etc.

Fortunately, I have no exams in the Neptune this year. I have one in the Mardyke and the rest are all on campus (Student Centre, Kampus Kitchen and Aula Maxima)

Any time I got it it was grand, but I did hear some stories of people being stranded last year and stuff.

Tbh, it's nearly worthwhile sharing a taxi with three classmates for convenience as it would only work out a euro or so more expensive at most...

That's a good idea if the buses are not dependable.

I've got my exams on campus. I feel lucky. :cool:

college run buses to there during the exams. If not just walk down by the gate and up shandon if all else fails.
