    They have a list of places that take students and you pick from that, or if you know some where that might take you, you can try there.

    Pharamaceutical companies, EPA, environmental testing places, Government food testing lab, forensics lab, places like that.
    It's not until 3rd year any way, don't worry about it!

    Im in second year, just doing exams. Its grand, first year is a mix of different modules if you might not have done chemistry, physics or bioloigy before.
    Second year is all about the chemistry, can be hard enough going at times. But all the lecturers are sound and willing to help you out if you ask.

    Ah the maths is grand, I used the leaving cert books to help me through it, and there is a maths learning centre in the library to help with any problems you may have.
