    Ah, yeah, results. Such a happy time ahead of us...


    Anyway, there is no real set time for the results. Over the last few years they have varied from 2am to 6am, to 12pm or 1, to 5pm. If your awake, take a look, but don't force yourself to sit up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,416 ✭✭✭Maldesu


    Got an email - no later than 2pm they say.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,103 ✭✭✭misslt


    It was late enough at Christmas, around 7.20.

    I have a bottle of wine open so if they're not there when I'm going to sleep at least I will sleep :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53 ✭✭DANCE111


    I'm in work at 08:30 so they better be out before then!!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,416 ✭✭✭Maldesu


    At least 2 hrs to go. Don't think they have ever been earlier than 2am unless someone has seen different?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35 Pandalaura


    Don't think I can stay up that late!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,103 ✭✭✭misslt


    2am was the earliest I've seen them. That was the only time I saw them before going to sleep.

    I just want them over and done with so I can get on with my life :p

    Anyone else up?

    Been watching a movie, now thinking fu*k it, might hang around for a while to see if they come up.

    Pretty nervous about them, so sleeping might be difficult anyway!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,805 ✭✭✭Rothmans


    Just up, and still no results. I am disappoint :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,193 ✭✭✭[Jackass]


    Results are up now..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 775 ✭✭✭Musefan


    Hey, I have yet to hand in a thesis at the end of August, but if I get an A in my thesis, my GPA would be 3.925 approx. I was just wondering if they round up or round down GPAs? i.e. would it be 3.93 or 3.92.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,193 ✭✭✭[Jackass]


    In the case of 3.925 they would round up. i.e 3.93 (3.924 they would round down)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,287 ✭✭✭crisco10


    No semester 2 results up for me...what did I do wrong?!! Lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,969 ✭✭✭antomorro-sei


    Hey, quick question. Wondering if anyone can help. I'm in my final year of my Arts degree. Is my "STAGE GPA" the figure that will tell me whether I get a 2.1 or 2.2, or do I have to wait for the final results for my Final GPA or something? Or is there a way to calculate now, what degree I got?

    Cheers. Best of luck to everyone :)

    It'll be in the final results but if you take your gpa's for the stages that go toward your degree you can average them out, I don't know what it is for arts!

    Nice one. I think Arts just counts Stage 2 for the degree, as Stage 1 is 1st year, which doesn't count, and Stage 2 is Years 2 and 3. Hope the Stage GPA counts for my final stage gpa :)

    Your stage GPA would be your final one from what I can tell. :)

    Hope everyone's happy! :D

    What other criteria does Ad Astra take into account besides a minimum GPA of 3.68?

    Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1 sleepy12345


    Can anyone help me here.
    I have 50 out of 60 credits earned.
    But I have 2 F grades and 1 Pass by Compensation grade.
    Can I still progress into the next stage?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26 greens


    Is 3.68 A- or B+ ?

    3.97 GPA for this semester! Delighted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,076 ✭✭✭Eathrin


    I got one F.
    Can anyone tell me what the process is for taking a repeat/resit and which of these is the norm?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10 Conor775


    Hi everyone and congrats on the results. I was just wondering if anyone could help me out. I got an E grade on one of my modules and was wondering about compensation.

    It says in the regulations that 'Some modules are designated as "not passable by compensation", such as, for example, foundation modules that are pre-requisites for further study in some languages. Where this is the case, the E grades remain and still retain the value of 1.6'.

    Is there any way to know whether a particular module is one of these modules that is "not passable by compensation"?

    Cheers for any help.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,805 ✭✭✭Rothmans


    Just got my results on my phone at 5.50 this morning just before I walked into work. Happy with them. Did alot better than I thought!

    Afraid you're wrong on that one [Jackass], they won't round at all. If it works out at 3.925, it'll be left at that (Although it'll read 3.92 as your final GPA ( and not 3.93)

    An A- is 3.8 and a B is 3.6. 3.68 is therefore between the two grades.

    I was trying to find that out myself when I was afraid that I had failed. But very very fewmodules (in my course at least) are not passable by compensation.
    What course are you doing? What subject? Is it a core module?

    I'm doing the Bachelor of Music degree. The module is Seminar in Ethnomusicology. It's an option module.

    Also, does the grade show up as just 'E', or does it show if it's up for compensation? (Like E(C) or something)

    Are you sure? I had two rounded down in this terms results, but I suppose that would still fit in to what you're saying.

    On a separate note, ugh, have my first ever repeat, bad timing going in to 3rd year (I suppose there's never a good time though). Not surprised though and at least all my other results went reasonably well (still on course for a 2:1).

    So, how does this repeat lark work, if I want to repeat the course work and not just final exam, do I need to re-register for the whole module (i.e. lectures and pay extra bit) or can I just pay to re-sit the module exams and still re-submit course work as the year goes through too?

    I don't need the lectures again, mainly because they were awful, but also because I just messed up the whole module from start to finish, but feel like I would be able to sort it out myself by just re-sitting the stuff.

    Well, then its passable by compensation (99.9999% sure of that).
    I think it will convert to P(C) on the release of final results;

    'E grades are failing grades, which have a grade point value of 1.6. These E grades may convert to P(C) (pass with compensation) only where you have completed and obtained passing grades in modules accounting for 75% or more of the total credit required to successfully complete the stage (usually 9 modules) and the compensation GPA for the attempt at the stage is 2.00or greater.
    Provisional E grades are then considered compensated and final grades of P(C) are awarded.

    P(C) Grade (Pass by Compensation)

    P(C) grades (pass with compensation) are awarded where E grades have
    been compensated. E grades are then converted to P(C) grades and carry
    the same grade point value of 1.6.
    For compensation, a student must:

    Have completed and obtained passing grades in modules accounting for
    75% or more of the total credit required to successfully complete the stage (usually 45 credits or 9 modules).

    Have a Compensation GPA for the attempt at the stage that is 2.00 or
    greater.'

    Lol, I got burnt by the non-rounding in second or third year. I got 3.675 iirc, and it was left at that :mad: so I remember it well!

    I'm afraid I don't know much about repeats, but I think depending on the course, you may be able to opt for a remediation assignment, but I'm not certain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 105 ✭✭majo


    I got a N.G. result in one of my modules today. Doesn't make sense as I did the exam and reckon I got on OK, attended lectures and handed in all assignments. I contacted the Programme Office today and they said to email/phone the lecturer. Did both but no reply from him. What do I do next????


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,193 ✭✭✭[Jackass]


    Lecturer might only be in for his / her assigned office hours, so maybe look up what the office hours are or wait for a reply.

    As long as you have an email waiting for them and a message on their answer machine, I'd wait a few days to give them a chance to reply. Also bare in mind they may have a fair few queries following results.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 Notagenius


    Hey guys and gals. I got my final results today and managed to get an F in one module. I know repeats are in dec but since it is final year does anybody know if there is a different procedure for this? The thought of having to wait another year to graduate is so depressing!!

    If anyone has any experience with this and would share their info i would be extremely thankful!:D

    Is it true you can't do an Erasmus unless you have a GPA of over 3.0 in first year?
    If I had've known that I'm fairly sure mine would have been higher :(

    Depends where you are going. If it was to UCLA, they require you to have one of 3.08 and they application has to be in before the December exams. Others take your 1st year and the next semester into consideration when assessing for an applicant, so if you think you can get the GPA up during the next semester, go for it.
