    I have Arts, Applied Languages and European Studies down, I'm leaning towards the latter because it combines a bit of european study, law, sociology and then the languages. Plus the points are relatively low (375) compared to Applied languages and Arts (around 440)

    all i know is accomadation is refundable! and it could cost either 90 in a house on campus or 130 per week in apartments in the student block - with the apartment you have your own room and own bathroom asweel, a speaker came to our school and said to book aroujnd end of feb/mar

    Can I ask why you guys have Dromroe first? Still trying to decide between them but gearing towards Kilmury because of the price/closeness to gym and campus.

    I went for Dromroe because its so close to the kemmy business school, plus its close to campus, and ill have my own bathroom and a double bed. I know its pricey, but ill literally know nobody there, so its the safest option i think! :)

    i can see your point about the gym tho, dromroe is a fair walk to the arena. I put thomond second, kinda regretting it now! :)

    Because dromroe is closest to the main lectures and you get your own bathroom

    I have applied languages and european studies down too :) I really want applied langauges but yea 440 is very high for me. Hoping that some chance it may come down.

    Yea I like thats there's lots of options for european studies but I'm struggling between Languages and Literature or it to go second. I researched both a lot but i just cannot decide. I would choose law and sociology, would be interesting but then at same time unsure if law would be a bit heavy going while having 2 languages.

    exactly what I'd choose to :) Do you know what qualifications you could get out of sociology or law after the four years? Like if you could get some career out of it if you understand me..

    I don't think you are qualified in any career, it's a Bachelor of Arts. I presume you could work in linguistics or something, but you'd need to do a masters.

    You will get accommodation down there easily after you get your results. Its in no shortage down there. Unless you are looking for campus I'd be applying as soon as possible!
