Exam Results

mabrophy

Does anyone know when the exam results will be published for first year BESS?

Also, when are the repeats taking place?
Thanks

I just tried to find the information on the tcd site but it seems to be quite well hidden: The results for my course are out around the 15th June I think, so I'd imagine BESS will be released in and around the same time.

It's here: http://www.tcd.ie/vpcao/administration/examinations/assets/pdf/publication-of-ug-exam-results.pdf

First year BESS is 20th of June at 10am.

How do we get the exam results?

They'll be up on the department notice boards and online around the same time. The link to the results is on the examinations office website. Results are listed by student number, so everyones are on the same document but are anonymous.

I assumed they'd be out on a Friday, how DARE they contradict my assumption?!

15th is aaaaages way, thank god. I can do without knowing for a while!

And how do we get the subject breakdowns?

For Science, I know that the marks for each module are on the page but for the actual breakdown of the marks, you'd have to email the coordinator or the course office. Not entirely sure tbh!

Results about a week and a half after I finish, not too bad...

In maths/TP your breakdown is automatically emailed to you some time after the proper results come out... last year I got it on the 12th of June, so I'm guessing pretty soon after results.

I'm a bit confused. What do we get on the 15th of June so?

You're told what grade you get eg I, II.I, fail etc. You'll get your breakdown later at some point. Although this year, they're publishing the results really late at 5 for some reason.

Is the grade you get your average?
Like say you get, for example, a I in almost everthing, but fail one and cant pass by compensation. Are you down as the average or are you failed?

You're down as a fail. If you pass the repeats etc then you are down as a 'clear'.

Following remarks applicable to Maths/TP only.

If you pass, the result you get on publication day is I/II.1/II.2/III, as determined by the ECTS-weighted average.

If you cannot compensate, but achieve an average mark at least 40% the result is 'Not Qualified to Proceed' (NQP). Otherwise F1/F2.

For those who don't pass outright at the annual examination, the published results will list modules to be taken at the supplemental examination.

A numerical breakdown of marks by module is emailed out to @tcd.ie email addresses some days later, after the computations have been re-checked and records updated. Priority is given to breakdowns for 4th year students.

Just got my JF BESS results.

Failed 1st year maths&stats and intro to economics. Anyone else in the same boat?:mad:

Anyone know when the SS law results are out this year?

Still no sign of single honours results date? This is getting silly.

They will be realising results on the my.tcd.ie system in the middle of the month - the system isn't ready to go live yet I think.

Some departments are realising results through their own websites and on the examinations website, but this is mostly being done for final years to accomodate for job and postgrad offers.

You will find the dates here when they are ready I think.

lfqnic

That's the page I've been checking, I was beginning to wonder if another one had appeared somewhere! Thanks a lot for the info, that helps. I have absolutely no faith in my.tcd.ie so I hope to God our department does the merciful thing, for SS at least... Time to beg GRMA!

Our Course Director said results should appear on the afternoon of June 21st on My Tcd.

For first years who don't know, every course gets their results separately, there is no one date. Sophisters often get theirs before Freshman too. Usually by now there would be a document loaded with all the dates and times that the results are published, but obviously they're still hell-bent on using the new system which hasn't bloody worked for anything else this year. Trinity logic :mad:

FWIW, I'm SS TSM and we've been given a date. We were originally told that it would be all done on my.tcd., but that the dept were also preparing to put everything up the old way too (with overall results on noticeboards and on the Exams Office website in one big document, and you had to contact the dept for a module breakdown the next day). We got an email a few days ago saying that they're going to do it the old way after all - Sophister TSM results will be on the noticeboard on Monday - but our module breakdown will appear on the portal in July. (Cause that's helpful).

Basically, I think they really want to use the new portal, but, for the fourth time this year, it isn't ready. So some departments and offices have given up and proceeded as normal, and others seem to be hanging on in hope.

WHY DID THEY CHANGE EVERYTHING TO USE A WEB SYSTEM THAT WAS ONLY HALF-BUILT?!!

lfqnic

Thanks for the update, that helps! I wish my dept were as proactive... I'm also an SS and someone said they were going to be provisionally available next Friday but that there were concerns about the new system, etc... arrrgh.

Thanks for the info. What time are TSM results out tomorrow?

6pm.

It's only the Sophister ones (JS and SS), mind, the Freshman ones (JF and SF) are out one week later (June 17th at 6pm).

hello there folks

how much do resits cost?

ride-the-spiral

Resits don't cost anything in Trinity.

Anybody know anything about international students results? It would be a mixture of modules, JS and SS. The examinations office says they'll be available on the international page but there's no mention of any result dates up at all

lfqnic

No idea I'm afraid. Things aren't normally this bad, but (as I'm sure you've been hearing all year), everything went wrong with the new system. If I were you I'd email either your department or the international office - all our department has been able to do is tell us when they aim to put them up....

For those of you who got results today, how did it work? Was it on my.tcd.ie, and did it run smoothly, or did you get emailed by your departments?

PyramidHead

Brilliant thanks a million! Just asking for a friend who is back in the states but I got mine today and we were told they won't be available on my.tcd until the end of June, early July but I was able to get them the usual way by downloading it as a PDF on the exam results office page! Then the usual 'e-mail your department for breakdown'

In true South Park style "Nothing's changed!!!' :rolleyes:
