Go to UCC...you'll have more of a life there. 3 of my friends did Social Science there. It's tough but they all got their degree and are happy campers now.

Honestly, UCC v NUIM....there's no contest really, go for UCC.

Well a big city versus a little village....Maynooth is fine but you'd have more craic in UCC. Where are you from?

Maynooth seems to be full of cliques though....it's not that easy to make friends. Plus it's something like 6:1 girls to guys....so if you're a guy come here and if you're a girl go to Cork! Simple!

don't agree with the cliques comment, apart from the obvious ones like the drama soc, but they always keep to themselves, any of the big clubs/soc are all very friendly in my opinion.

is the ratio as high as 6:1? i thought it was lower than that but there are def more girls than guys in the place.

and for parity - Cork is deadly too, one of my favourite places in this country.

Yeah I think it really is that high
