    To be honest it's impossible to predict. Course places are decided by demand and given the current economic situation there will be more people appying for college places than ever before so the likelihood is that the points requirement for arts will rise. By how much is just guesswork

    It will probably return to the 380 -400 mark I should think.

    I think if it's set to the 400 mark the people just putting down as a consolation place will be on their way to CIT.:pac:

    The system is worked out on percentages; unless the quality of leaving certs go up, you shouldn't have too much to worry about.
