Anybody doing PCAM TR076?

    Just curious to find out who's doing it and also what impressions people who have done/are doing the course have of it. I'm pretty confident I'll get into it, I got considerably more points than last years requirement.

    For me it was the only course that stuck out for me, if I was doing Science, I would have picked all the PCAM modules anyway, so I just went for this.

    What does everyone have to say?

    It's my number 2.

    I had kinda convinced myself I'd never get Common Entry, so I was fairly sat on this.

    If you go off the idea of PCAM, you can transfer into Chemistry or any of the Physics courses in third year. It's exactly the same as taking Physics, Chemistry, Maths in Natural Science except PCAMs get one extra tutorial a week or something. I think some project work might differ as well.

    Well, hopefully I won't go off the idea of PCAM, but I was considering Theoretical Physics as well, in case I don't like it. I'll just have to wait and see.
    Maybe I'll see you there Fad.

    Whoa, PCAM went up 60 points.

    Oh dear, the points change this year was shocking though. Was it tight enough you might get it on the second round?

    5 points for Common Entry, so with any luck :)

    Slightly annoying

    I'm really not bothered enough about this whole thing, at least it didn have the meteoric rise like science in UCD.
