    Got an offer which I accepted into science.Can someone explain to me how the module choice works.As in which biology degrees I can choose in first year.Because in my CAO I indicated that I want to do Biological sciences DN200 BBB.But on my CAO offer I had just DN200??Does that still mean Im getting BBB?Any tips I should know before getting there-like how fast do I have to make my module choice?
    Thanks

    I am going with Science no preference but I have looked at all the modules. The module selection opens next week. During orientation week there are advisory sessions about choosing modules. There is lots of stuff on the website already.

    Don't worry, you still have BBB, it just doesn't say that on the CAO thing because thats not a code given to the course by the CAO, its just so that people who know what they want to do can register that with UCD in advance. If you want to change from this though you still can.
    Even though you know that its biology you want to do, you'll still have to take 1 or two chem modules, 2 maths ones and possibly a physics module depending on what you want to do in second year. You wont make any decisions about what actual degree you're doing til next summer. Theres no need to rush with making module choices really :). Good Luck :)

    You take 12 modules in the year, including 2 electives

    You can read about the science modules here

    when choosing modules how come it auto-assigns all labs/tutorials etc even though some of the modules have more than 1 offering for some of them?
