    Language For Int'l Communication - Japanese.

    2nd year, hopefully.

    Ditto, first year. w00t.

    What's with all the CAers? Is it a 100-person course or what?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,761 ✭✭✭✭Winters


    I think it was about 160 at the start of last year. But dropped to about 120 or 140 by the end.

    Tis the largest course afaik, so meet any male who goes to DCU and you can guess CA, 1/2 the time you would be correct. Ive been in nightclubs and been tapped on the shoulder by fellow drunks saying "You do CA in DCU!" and I go "Yeah!!!" .... Ah, I miss drink, its been over 12 hours.

    That's a fairly prestigious course. Hard to get into aswell.

    it's a four year course and there's about 50 of us in total lol

    CA will probably drop below that soon. We started with around 160, and there's just over 80 people on the passlist. (After repeats)

    Yikes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,216 ✭✭✭phreak


    wheres the list phaxx?


  • Registered Users Posts: 309 ✭✭spoon


    i think our year was was pretty much the same numbers. But you'll get a few repeating 2nd years that bring up the numbers too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 274 ✭✭adjodlo


    This year I'd say there'll be far less in the course, as I personally know one person who couldn't get in (for the second year running - god loves a tryer :D) because of the 300 point drop off.

    Then again all us smelly repeats will be there to make up numbers as spoon said.
