I myself will be doing Science and the subjects I will be doing will most likely be Computer Science, Maths, Engineering Science and possibly Mathematical Physics. Is there anyone else doing Science? Are you going into the course knowing what you want to do or are you completely open minded?

The last subject I will be doing is between Chemistry and Experimental Physics. I liked chemistry to an extent in the leaving cert and I found some parts of it relatively enjoyable but only got a C1 and that was my disappointing grade. I liked physics as well but I always preferred the mathematical side. I got an A2 in physics and a B1 in Applied Maths. I got 490 altogether so I was also 5 points off Computational thinking, my second choice

Samurai12 wrote: » Yeah I guess we would just have to wait to see what the courses when we get to go to different lectures. I will most likely be taking maths and computer to the degree level. But things could change for me. What about you guys?
Simpson2 wrote: » Definitely taking comp.sci+maths up to degree level. If I end up doing (exp/math)physics together with chemistry, it'll be difficult for me to decide which to drop in second year because I loved the two subjects equally in LC despite me not getting the A which I was aiming for in both of them. However the LC is now in the past and second year is well into the future so for now I'm just really looking forward to first year

Simpson2 wrote: » Was about to say. Buzzing to start the degree already! Looking forward to joining some of the clubs and socs too.
Samurai12 wrote: » Yeah all the Clubs and Socs look grand but they didn't have a Film or Computers club in the Student guide. I truly hope they have both of those.
Simpson2 wrote: » Not sure about the Film society but there is indeed a computer science society - it's called Minds. It's under the Social & Games section I think. I might definitely give it a go.
