    We were sent a draft timetable about a month ago, I'm kinda hoping there's been some switches because there's nothing worse than a 9am exam when you live 2 buses away from the RDS...

    I've one Tuesday and then one Friday.

    But then it says I have an exam in a subject where the final exam is only worth 30% and supposed to be in the last class of term... :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,179 ✭✭✭RichTea


    Not overjoyed by my timetable but then again they're my final exams and it's all over after them.

    Never had two exams back to back with an hour gap in between them before. That's going to be nasty, especially seeings as it's the first day of the exams for me :(

    They're pretty spread out for the most part after that. End on Saturday, 15th May.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,571 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    Tuesday, Friday and Saturday and then I'm free.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 305 ✭✭Offside

    Apart from the two 9am exams, that's really not that bad. At least you've none back to back. The way my timetable is I think I'd be better off just sleeping outside the exam hall for 3 nights.

    Are you sure about that? The timetable has no exams on the first Monday (3 May), I believe it's a bank holiday.

    I have an exam at Simmonscourt in the very first session (9am Tuesday 4/5).
    I have an exam at Simmonscourt in the very final session (6pm Saturday 15/5)
    The last one is an unusual elective, so I I suspect I may be unique in this distinction. :cool:

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found.

    Aye I suppose it could be worse, still I'm one of those freaks who just wants to get them over with in the one go!
    Going to cost me the guts of €200 because of shifts I can't work because of it too.

    Yeah, I suppose there are advantages to getting them out of the way quick. Mine were fairly spread out last semester, but I was completely burnt out and couldn't study by the time the last two exams came. I was just siting around staring blankly at books, getting nothing none. It was like waiting on death row. At least this time I can just blame the crappy timetable. lol.

    God, yours is terrible too. Are you 1st year politics & history too? Looks like I'll have to do some revision before the week of the exams now instead of in the days in between them :eek:

    Finished on 8th though - that'll be good when it gets to 8th


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,019 ✭✭✭SexyD4Lady


    Tuesday 4th- two most disgusting exams of all my modules. 12pm and 3pm
    Monday 10th- a repeat. 12pm
    Thursday 13th- MCQ, one hour, no negative marking. 6pm.
    Saturday 15th- 3pm.

    And it's my birthday on Sunday- first birthday since I started secondary school that I won't have an exam/will be preparing for exams. Woohoo!

    Sat 8th - 2 exams
    Wed 12th - 1 exam

    I like how I have over 2 weeks from when college ends until exams start. Easy subjects too despite it being 3rd year. Law really is a doss!

    I now have 1 exam the first week, then 5 the second week, with my last one on Saturday the 15th. Great


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 305 ✭✭Offside


    My last exam has been added.. I've gone from finishing on the 8th to the 15th... Damn!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 188 ✭✭Jack Bracken


    Tuesday at 9, Wednesday at 9, Thursday at 9, Saturday at 12 and then Monday at 3... wtf is up with computer science exams being so early? I don't know if the 45 even gets there that early and cycling from Shankill won't be fun, lol.

    And my repeat for algorithmic problem solving isn't listed and the lecturer apparently hasn't replied to any emails the secretary has sent. [/worried]

    But at least it's spread out a lot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,893 ✭✭✭Davidius


    Jesus, it's already April. Curse my lazy-bastard-ing ways.

    One on each of Tues 4th, Sat 8th, Tues 11th, Wed 12th, Sat 15th. Forgot one of my modules was 100% continuous assessment.

    i heard that the repeat for algorithmic problem solving doesnt exist cause
    nobody has ever failed it :p

    Hey, I did brilliantly on the exam itself. I just thought the CA was 20% total... instead of 20% for each of the 3 pieces of work, which I didn't bother doing. <_<

    Misreading that one line of text cost me €230. :c

    Even if you did misread you ahold have done the assignments that take about 5 mins each to do and you get about a week for each. Plus you could have still passed getting the 40% from the final which I as easy as the assignments. Expensive stupidity lesson but probably good to get while still
    on first year.

    With the closing of registration on SIS, has anyone elses personalised exam timetable gone missing?

    The link is probably looking right at me, I'd appreciate if anyone can link/direct me.

    Saturday 6pm-8pm


    Can't be much better with regards to spreading out and times, bit of a sickener having to come to dub next week just for one exam though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,320 ✭✭✭Chet T16


    Tuesday 4th 9am - blackrock
    Wednesday 5th 12pm - simmonscourt
    Thursday 6th 12pm - simmonscourt
    Friday 7th 12pm - simmonscourt

    Then a week off before the last exam at 6pm on a saturday 15th.

    I think I must be in the very first and last exam slots!

    Ha! That's nice. Every exam in UCD I've done has had me in until the last exam slot. No change this year.

    Thursday 9-11

    You think they'd have a bit more consideration for final years and not put 4 in a row...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,739 ✭✭✭Jello


    Wednesday 3 - 5
    Thursday 3 - 5
    Monday 2:30 - 4
    Tuesday 3 - 4

    Saturday 6 - 8

    Not too bad, no early starts and no days with two exams. Exam at 6pm on the last day is a pain though, parking gonna cost a fair bit too.
