Just an update for those hoping for a spot, the reserve list moved 2 more places, a total of 4 places used up as of last Monday!
Also, I was talking to the course director and as of next year (subject to approval) there will be a totally different format for applying! We will have to take a version of the HPAT designed for the course. It includes an Written English essay style exam layout also. (hpat-ireland.acer.edu.au/university-admission)

Thanks Mimikins89. These fingers are still crossed! Please post on here if you get anymore updates. Did you get any hints of what the course director thinks will happen over the next few weeks when you had her on the phone?
Not really sure what you mean by hints? She just started talking to me about it being a new format for applying next year and told me to keep watching the space on the website for changes to the application process next year. Will call in a week or 2 again and check .

Sorry, that's just me trying to gauge what's going to happen in terms of this list moving, though I know it's impossible to predict!
Oh, well she didn't seem to know how it had gone in previous years, I had just been directed to ask her as the person who looks after it is on holidays and the director has access the the list. She didn't seem to hold out hope that it would necessarily move though as it's so late and that's when she mentioned about next year's applying process.
must just have been everyone's first choice this year! 0 -

Oh well, thanks for the update, who knows what will happen but here's hoping there's still a chance for us!0 -

In terms of the course itself I'm not sure which is better but as someone that is currently doing a masters in the UK, the exchange rate for euro to pound makes it very expensive to live over here, particularly if you're living off of euro savings. It depends on how much of a factor it is for you personally, but I just wanted to provide a slight warning 0

Thanks for getting back to me 😊 I was originally No. 10 on the list! What about you? So I'm wondering is it a person that's already been offered a place, or the 9th person on the reserve list they're waiting on an answer from?! I can't believe there's finally a bit of movement ðŸ˜
Especially good news for you so! You must be the next after the person that was offered the place! starts on Monday though so tomorrow will be the last day this year I think?? 0 -

Thanks mimikins89 for the update! I'm going to get in touch tomorrow and find out for myself, but just wanted anyone's opinions first- do you think they will continue to offer to the reserve once the course starts if people drop out? I've a number of friends who've undertaken a masters and have all said that a few people dropped out in the first 2/3 weeks. I know I'm properly clutching at straws here but still holding out some hope!
Hey pvlondon, I know a girl that has just completed the course, and apparently somebody started 2 weeks into the programme the year she started! So no, it is feasible... I'm hoping on that too tbh 0 -

I rang just now and confirmed I'm 3rd now. She said it's unlikely they'd continue to take places off the reserve past today as it's such an intensive course, and that unless on Monday 4 or 5 people don't show up in which case they would be under pressure to fill the course and would go through the reserve, it's likely today would be the final day.
Ceecee- you're the next to be offered now I'm pretty sure! As in the 1st reserve! (and I think pvLondon you are 6th at the minute?) 0 -

Sorry for the delay with the update... I rang on Friday, and was speaking to Christine Langan as well. From what I could gather they called the person before me on the reserve list and were waiting on an answer from them - that was just before lunchtime. She said she was going to check it out with admissions and get back to me in the afternoon. I never got a call, so I'm assuming that person took the place.... So close but yet so far I'm still half hoping that I still could get a call next week, but it's probably a long stretch at this stage! 0
