I'm also going for the TP route. I don't really plan on going to UCD if I don't get the others. I only put them down so it didn't seem like I loved TCD. I'm hoping to get 550 points which should cover me.

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?

If you do end up in TheoPhys and decide you'd prefer to do Maths, you can apparently transfer up to and including third year.. madness! Was a very tough decision here - TP won because it has physics aswell as maths and also because of the reasoning behind the transfer to Maths in the worst case scenario! I got 570 back in 2007.

Yay! Another one!.. Now to find both of you when we hopefully start.. >_> (am not a stalker, oh no.. :P)

I didn't care if it looked like I loved TCD - I do! And any lecturers I spoke to about the maths courses there were really enthusiastic/helpful so I'm looking forward to getting the benefit of that!

Yah, that's one of the great things about the course, and one of the main reasons in my chosing to do it. I'm not entirely sure that I want to just do TP, as there are some maths topics which I'm interested in that you don't cover, so I might change to maths at some stage (if I get in, that is).

You have more than enough points, anyway!

Apparently it's a very much male dominated course, so you won't be too hard to spot.:P

You're exactly the same as myself so.. There's a lot of the Maths course that I'd like to do that I know we won't get to do in TP - TP seems very set, as opposed to all the options in maths. But hopefully it'll work out one way or another!

I'm not counting my chickens before they hatch as regards the points though.. I'll be nervous come CAO offers day!

Haha, true - small course aswell but I imagine we'd be mixed in with maths or physics classes for a large chunk of it. Oh crap.. just realised, I'm going to be stuck with a load of nerdy boys for 4 years.. ;_;

:pac:

Pretty sure it's dentists.


I wouldnt normally doubt TopGear, but this time........

degausserxo

Yep, it's dentists!

I've always heard that it's air-traffic controllers who have the highest suicide rate.

Poor dentists.

I can kinda understand it though, generally if you're a dentist you probably don't get to give good news, and children would be afraid of you and stuff... plus there's probably long hours and little intelligent conversation.

I havent seen anyone on the Internet wanting to do my first choice course... so I hope the points go down. Though I've got this image of myself sitting alone in a lecture theatre at the back, with the lecturer echoing their words across the room.

Yeahhh....I think right now,I'll just accept whatever I'm offered rather than repeat. Science looks weird there,but I've always loved science. I'd love to see the look on some of my teachers' faces if they could see this :P

And the fact that you spend your day poking around peoples mouths* and one of those people smoke, dont brush their teeth too often, etc that'll make your job even more unpleasant.

Perhaps. But, it must be a horribly stressful job: imagine having up to 20,000 people's lives in your hands each day.
