PME 2019

    Hi all,

    I am hoping to get some advice on the PME Post Primary degree. I completed my undergrad degree in NUIG in 2018, but only achieved a 2.2 degree.

    I was planning to apply for the PME beginning in September 2020 but the more research I do the more unrealistic this is looking.

    I’ve used the entry requirement point calculator and I’m falling short by 2/3 points for both of my subjects as their points seem to be amongst some of the higher ones for 2019/20.

    I am open to studying anywhere in Ireland and have also considered the Hibernia route, however ideally I would be doing a NUI PME.

    Additionally, I’m going to enrol and complete an online TEFL course over the next 3/4 weeks in order to have some sort of extra qualification, although I’m not sure this will aid my application in anyway, I’m sure it won’t hurt it either.

    Does anyone have experience of being offered a place even after falling short of the “entry requirement points”?
    Or would you think applying is a waste of time given these circumstances?

    Any advice you could offer would be greatly appreciated as time is running out and I’m hoping to make a decision sooner rather than later.

    Thank you in advance
