    Hi,
    I am interested to join UCD Sociology's Health and Illeness masters course. My graduation is in a science subject and I completed MA and Mphil in a sociology related subject. It's read from the UCD website that "Applicants should normally have a primary degree in sociology or a closely cognate discipline" to apply for this course. If I apply what would normally consider, my primary degree or my post-graduate degree? Any advice would be helpful.

    Well, that line in the spec is about the minimum requirements for new applicants. Having a postgrad qualification in sociology means that you exceed those requirements. If you apply they'd look at everything you have, and judge your application on its merits. I don't know more you can find out here, and it would be better to talk to the department in question.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.
