Actually, it is. I'll be extremely glad to leave it behind after I turn in my masters thesis.

With grammar like that I'd be surprised if you aren't surprised.

I just finished 1st year Arts and my results are up now! Happy Days!

Alkers

Doing Engineering and mine are up now too, any chance they will go up, I passed everything but did a lot worse in a good few subjects than I felt I had done in the exam.:(

Guys, didnt want to start a new thread about this but I'm baffled as to what happened.

Just got my results, passed everything except for one module which I failed. Now, I understand failing but this module I did excellent in.....well I thought I did. The breakdown of my mark is not available unfortunately.

Basically, the module was split 80% for final exam, 20% for tutorial problem sheets. I reckon I got at minimum half of the continuous assessment and really felt I aced the final exam, I still do. Just looking at the paper now and was expecting at least a B (its my best and easiest module). Any chance there was a mistake with the result??

Quite possibly, that's why these were only the provisional results. you have a chance to appeal your grade and view your exam script.

I really suggest you do this as in second year I got an NG in a 70% CA part of a module. When I appealed it it turned out they just never included the grade, which I got an A in, so my grade swung by like 65% or something.

SmashingPilot

Thanks, I'll get on to it tomorrow. Still in shock to be honest. I knew I should have waited until the morning to look. haha!!

How does one go about viewing scripts etc?

Well I'm going away to America early Friday morning. I refuse to leave with this hanging over my head.

Very ****ing relieved!!

Just been reading that appeals page. It says I can get the result checked informally and that is free of charge. If they spot any problems, will they update it. Or would I then have to go through the formal route, i.e. paying??

You'd then have to go the formal route and pay. I thinkj the informal free route is jsut so joo can check if its worth your while appealing

Good old UCD, paying for their mistakes. Thanks so much for the help, greatly appreciated. Now where's my gun!!!!!

I didn't think you could appeal until the final results are out....

I know, I knew something was wrong straight away though as I knew I'd done awesome in the CA component of the course.

Nope you have to appeal before the final grades are released afaik so if your grade does change, it can be changed from the provisional mark to the final mark.

I had to appeal within 30 days of the final results during Semester 1, I believe. Maybe they've different rules across disciplines.

Maybe I'm mistaken then, tbh I haven't really looked at it in the last year so it's probably changed to what you said.

Finally done with UCD!! Its sort of bittersweet though. I'll miss the memories and some of my lecturers.

I can't help thinking if i'd actually given a damn in first year, I'd have managed a first, but it was only UCD arts so I don't think I'd be at any particular advantage if I had.

What have you other graduates got ahead of you?

I wish I had kept up my second year performance into final year:O Still got a very high 2.2, so happy with that, and have now found a masters course in sociology in ucd that I want to do. Won't be able to do it till 2011 though, so knowing my luck, it'll be gone.

Finishing my masters thesis and then looking for a job. There is not a hope in hell of me doing a PhD.
