Retype your choices without gaps in the list; i.e. don't have something in 1st, 2nd ,4th, but not 3rd place.

firms worldwide are cutting their marketing and advertising departments cos thats the first thing to go in a recession. recession may be over in 4 years but there will be a lot of experienced marketing guys in line for the jobs before graduates.

do the business one and your gfs brother can do a 1 year postgrad in advertising if he is still interestd in 3-4 years

Because the points are lower in rcsi and my preference is either Cork or Galway... So I figure if I dont get the points for them I'd hardly get to Trinity or ucd.

Plus I needed to save some slots on the cao form !

but the new hpat thing may mix up the points this year no?

slots do need to be saved though!

So I like my Level 7/6 Choices but they're all in other Counties.....I really haven't prepared to move. Assuming I get the points and an offer from one of them I'll either have to get used to the idea of moving, or doing another year in school so I can get another Higher Level subject done on my Leaving Cert and do what I really, really want to do on my Level 8 choices and not have to move.

dont go there!! its really boring and full of nuns!!!!!!!

Thanks for the tip! I don't want to go there either (Which is why my other 9 Level 8 choices are all UL, which I would love to go to) but that was my favourite choice of subject and my Guidance Counsellor recommended it. Anyway, can't go this year because I only hid one HL on my Leaving Cert. I just have it all filled in anyway.

Worst comes to worse.. when they send out the confirmation of the courses and are like "Please let us know within 7 days if everything is right"..

.. change? "I'm sorry, no - this is not right at all AT ALL!"

:P

Will the CAO be publishing a final overview of first choice preferences by people?

My final 4 choices. It's pretty much been like that for the last 6 months, though.

A lot of people are putting down Theoretical Physics; damn ye, don't go driving the points up to extremely high levels.

I will see you there, hopefully!

I'm sure the points won't go too mad.. they rarely do.. right?

RIGHT?

No they don't seem to be going too mad lately. I was talking to a lecturer in Theoretical Physics a few months ago, and when he did it in Trinity in 1998 the first round points were 570 (final points 530).

Hopefully it'll never hit that again, anyway.

I'm lucky in that, having done the leaving cert a couple of years back, I already know what points I have - it's just a matter of hoping it meets requirements. I *think* I'm safe, but you never do know! What are you hoping to get if you don't mind me asking?

Ah right, you should be ok so. I can't imagine it going any higher than 520, really; if you have that - or more - you should be pretty confident. I'm hoping to get around the 530 mark, so hopefully that'll get my in. But, if I don't get the points, I'm just as happy doing maths (my second choice); I'm pretty much 50/50 between the two, really. How many points do you have, if you don't mind my asking?
