Law & Business?

stainluss

To anybody who is doing this:

How is the course?
Hours-Wise?
Difficulty-Wise?
Do you think that you will get a good career out of it?

I was thinking about this or Business and Law (UCD), but i would love to work (or get a Masters) in a different country and I believe TCD is better known in the UK/USA. I think that in these areas, employers and HEI's still rely on a bit of prestige (or at least recognisability) in a degree. Is this true?

Not doing it, but trinity is generally seen as better than our other dublin people. And law usually has very little hours, and so do business-in comparison to what you're used to in school all courses do. But you should really spend all that time reading and studying. Theres no such thing as an "easy" course-except arts

I know, i was just wondering about class hours.
I heard law takes a good few hours out of class in the library and whatnot (I heard Trinity's library is unreal - never seen it, though)

This says nothing about the course hours.

I tried to google timetable in tcd but got nothing

I obviously posted the wrong link there, my bad.

Law is about 8 hours, and that course is 6 modules, so id guess at 12 hours a week odd?

Everything takes a good while outside of course hours, if its artsy, youll have a lot of reading to do outside of course hours, sciencey, you could spend 3-4 hours on a single lab report, possibly more sometimes (ive spent overnights on a few...) Which library would you be talking about, theres a few

Your own house/room is as good a place to study as any (for me anyway) especially around now cos its so much hassle trying to get a place in the library at any time during the day, they're always packed.
