Exam Results

Does anyone know when the exam results for Senior Freshman TSM are out? In typical Trinity fashion I haven't heard a thing and need to know when to check them, as I will be abroad all summer. Also does anyone know the URL to get them? Is it part of that Student Information System bit?

Ron DMC · 12-06-2005 11:36pm

no idea actually!

Probably should have found that out.

There may be something on your noticeboards if you go into campus

Online results:
http://www.tcd.ie/TSM/Results/ (check own result by student number)
http://www.tcd.ie/Examinations/Results/tsm.html (same as what's on the noticeboard - long list of exam numbers and grades)

It tends to vary which one goes up first!

Non-online results:
noticeboards @ Nassau St

Dates:
JS/SS 28th June
JF/SF 4th July

officially 5pm, although past practice has been to try and get them up by the afternoon.

I think that Daithí was just throwing up the TSM result dates only. I wish I was getting my results on the 28th anyways...

Yeah but I still have exams from January that I have to get my results for. And the SF Engineers have exams from December and March. That's a longer wait then even the Junior Cert!

Anyways, what's done is done. I'd much prefer to know then not.

xeduCat · 13-06-2005 4:07pm

Yeah, it was a direct answer to the question from the TSM student...

snorlax · 13-06-2005 4:10pm

we got our results from xmas exams in january...ah the junior cert so long ago...it seems so unimportant now...........

could potentially muck up a summer abroad all the same...and im supposed to know everything backwards for fieldwork placement, its very scarey when you have to apply what you'v learned in the real job world.......and there's not lecture waffling away and you have to deal with real clients..

DrIndy · 13-06-2005 5:29pm

Everyone should follow the medical school tradition....

I finished my clinical exams with 1/3 of the class on thursday at 12o'clock. Our honours and pass/fail Viva lists were up just after 2. All vivas were finished at 4. Department meeting took place until 6pm. Examiners broke for dinner until 7. Final examiners meeting reviewing every candidate took place until 10:20 the night of the last exam and we knew our final results on the day.

Thats the way it should be....... all the other departments are pure and simple lazy ****es for taking such a long time to give you your results.

snorlax · 14-06-2005 4:50pm

if your correcting essays id say itd take more then 2 hours to correct them properly, vivas are a bit more straightforward.....

DrIndy · 14-06-2005 8:22pm

yeah, but they correct 120 scripts in under a week just before the final cases. The principle is that in the medical school, they bust their asses getting everything done as fast and efficient as possible so we know our results on the day of the last exam.

Its a really cool tradition..... and the rest of college are lazy feckers who meander along and publish their results when they feel they can be bothered to......

John · 14-06-2005 9:45pm

The medical school didn't do that with us. We won't have any results from them (even the viva) until July.

cuckoo · 15-06-2005 7:54am

I think the med school have to be pronto with the results as the final years are heading into hospitals on the 1st of july for their intern year. Bad time for anyone to get sick...

DrIndy · 15-06-2005 11:06am

Unless I'm treating you...

snorlax · 15-06-2005 4:00pm

meeh but whats the point in killing yourself in job unless its going to get you somewhere eg a promotion or something, you can work well and not kill yourself and still have a life at the same time....i think doctors have a habit of working too much/ hard...i don;t know about you but i work to live rather then live to work!:) eg i do enough to do well, but don't undergoe a CVA at the same time...!

Sorry, what?! There is something called selfless motives you know? Sure those lads at greenpeace are in it for the craic really...

snorlax · 15-06-2005 4:32pm

i just don;t belive in killing myself unneccessarily, and i have done much voluntary aswell as paid work....the irish wildlife trust (2months), peer support netwerk (*2 years)....i think you missed my point slightly, i work hard but don;t kill myself cos i don;t want an early grave

Gotcha, it did seem a bit hypocritical the way I was seeing it!

Andrew 83 · 15-06-2005 5:46pm

I fully intend to do paid work in order to support myself, not to get to the top.

Voluntary work is for the good it is does and is another matter.

Kevin_rc_ie · 15-06-2005 6:02pm

yeah everyone knows that doctors by definition eat too much, sleep too little, do too many drugs and save people's life and tell them there's nothing wrong with them 50 euro please.

cuckoo · 15-06-2005 6:58pm

I quite like the idea of a few years of hard work, but then time out (hopefully to have a family). If only i could figure out what i want to do....a lot of this will depend on the results, out on July 1st for SF science.

I love the misguided notion of NGO/charity/voluntary sector work being cushy - it's one of the most competitive sectors i know of to get employed in, the contracts are short and if you don't perform well there's hoardes of people snapping at your feet to get your job.

snorlax · 16-06-2005 4:58pm

you can get an awful lot of good experince out of voluntary work also....

True...... but for you m'dear, its €60.

Very true. Despite my pro-hunting stance I've done a lot of conservation work and help with tagging birds to monitor their migration and breeding habits.

cuckoo · 16-06-2005 11:14pm

Volunteering can be very rewarding, my post a while back was about the rose tinted view of employment in the voluntary sector.

snorlax · 17-06-2005 5:38pm

have you ever done dry stone walling John or worked on groundworks conservation workshops, http://www.groundwork.ie/?

i helped the IWT (irish wildlife trust- http://www.iwt.ie ) with illustrations of animals etc fro their book(and many of their pamplets), got the book at home and everything, very rewarding. also, i was secetary, co chair and at one satge PR person for the PSN, now im their webmaster for a website i helped set up for them on yahoogroups http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/peersupport_tcd/ ) hope you like the photo!;)
