    Pat's
    Mary I (don't really want to go there though)
    Marino

    Don't care which one I get as long as I get one tbh :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,115 ✭✭✭magicianz


    Going for electrical and electronics engineering in UCC with biomedical in 2nd choice.

    Electrical and electronics engineering was 305 points in 2008, 365 in 2009 and 405 in 2010 >.> I should be fine even if it goes up by 50 again but I would prefer to have a safety margin as I think all the engineering courses in UCC are going up =/

    I was thinking about Mary I but for some reason I really don't want to go there either.... I'd love if I did get the course in either Pat's or Marino but have arts in NUIM down as a back up ( I'd do a post grad then which by the time it comes around froebel will be in NUIM so I'd still be there ..post grad is 18 months)..

    What have you down for other options?

    I think its cause some people call it "Mary Dry" :P (no offence Mary I peeps)

    I have Business in DCU also with the idea of a postgrad too, I heard a post grad is very expensive though? :eek:

    Chin up! Keep positive and do your best for the rest of the exams and who knows :D

    Me, I haven't a clue! Maybe medicine (did the auld HPAT), primary teaching, human nutrition, languages, law, psychology.. Not a notion! Scary much :/

    BMus in NUIM, can't wait for it :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 244 ✭✭njd2010


    Law, UCC is my first choice but if I got into UL I wouldn't complain. No idea why I'm doing Law, just seemed like the most impressive course I could do without having to decide what career I want. Some bits do seem interesting though.

    "Who" you want to do would be more suitable. Best of luck in Paper 2 I suppose.

    Hey...aww it's good you have an idea of what you want to do...it makes subject choices so much easier ... like if there is any specific subject you may need for an entry requirement... I always knew that I either wanted to do teaching or be a vet..(big difference I know).. but I decided that teaching is more for me ...:D:D

    Good thing is though, you don't even need any specific subjects (not that I know of) not even a third language. :D It's just the points (450). If H English for the LC goes the way it did today for my JC then I am fooooooked. :eek: :D We've both higher papers on the same day, stupid government. -_-

    English is very unpredictable in the way it is marked..you might feel you done really bad and get a great result or visa versa...wait til you get your results you might be surprised..:D LC is better spaced out like we had English paper 1 today and paper 2 tomorrow... Just wait and see :)
