Anyone know how to go about the whole change of course thing on the CAO website?

Is it open yet? I just want to change my Number 2 to number 1 and add another course?

Well I got a letter from the CAO today with a change of level form but it also says I can change it online! And same - just want to change my first two around :P

I can help you with the integration Patchy or just that K^3=16 question, Its fairly short tbh.

You can say that the entire area is 8 or 24/3 for sake of ease
Integrate x^2.dx to get x^3/3 with limits 2 and 0 giving 8/3 as your area outside the curve.
Integrate root y to get (2y^3/2)/3 with limits k and 0 giving (2k^3/2)/3
This equals half the remaining area(we are told this) so 8/3
Use algebra to find that k^3=16

What date do the LC results come out this year? (I know it's a bit early to be thinking about results )

How is the entire area 8? Surely you mean each half, right?

By area outside the curve do you mean above it or below? And where did you get root y?

Thank you guys for your help, yizr my only hopes :P

Well first of all you can neglect the area to the left of the y axis completely so area is 8, not 16 as you're probably thinking
I mean between the curve and the x axis.

x^2=y

Get the square root of both sides
root y= x

Differentiate with respect to x now because we're on the y axis (are between the curve, k and y axis)
So its Integrate y^1/2 .dy. And with limits K and 0. And do it just like any other integration.

Haha I'm lost, I'd ask questions but its making so little sense to me that its probably not even worth it.
Thank you for trying though. :P

anybody able to explain something on this link? It says you take 30ECTS per semester, yet in pattern 1, and in most of the patter, what they say you take would be more than 30ECTS, eg. on patter one each semester has 40?

Yea man it's also really frustrating when you have unproductive study sessions

I'm usually tired , but I took today off to study so it's okay today . It's harder to study after school. I can't wait for the LC to be over but I really don't want it to begin yet.

For pattern one, it says you have to take Maths and Physics (10 + 10) and then one of the other ones per semester. The wording is confusing when it says you can take 2, but it just means 2 different ones for the 2 semesters, but still only 1 x 10 ECTS for each semester. Does that make sense?

I think I know what you're asking but not 100% sure, I'll give it a go though

In pattern 1 (just taking it as an example) you must take maths and physics in semester 1 (10 credits each) and take them again in semester 2 (10 credits each). What it's then saying is that you take two of the rest of the options, but they don't mean two subjects, e.g. Biology and Chemistry. They mean you take one chemistry module (for example) in the first semester for 10 credits, and another chemistry module in the 2nd semester for another 10 credits. So you'd be doing Maths, Physics and Chemistry in both semesters with each module worth 10 credits. If that makes sense Same idea with all the other patterns. I take it you're thinking of doing that course next year too?

EDIT: QueenOfLeon explained it much more concisely than I could!

Nothing. You 'take no action' as they say.

Guys, I'm actualy scared I'm going to get such a bad leaving cert!
Five weeks just isn't enough time!

Christ at this point I hate getting homework unless I am studying that topic.
Otherwise I would rather concentrate on studying what I want

Bitta stoner talk going on here, but does anyone here actually smoke weed? Someone who isn't me smokes it from time to time and is worried that it might affect his lc.

Ya I'm sure this person isn't you But effect his leaving cert in what way? Obviously if your out partying/drinking/high you won't be getting study done and that will effect it.
