    Where do the rds exam buses go from in belfield and how often or is the 'exam bus' just a myth?

    The car park stop over near Glenomena where the 'x' buses run from.

    Don't think they were held at Christmas though so not sure if they're on again this year. Open for correction though.

    They were actually run at Christmas,the SU organised it.Demand was pretty high though.Fingers crossed they run again, they proved very useful for stressed first years like yours truly.:o

    Ah my bad. Thought I remember an email saying they weren't being run.

    And if the exam is in the RDS it's not that bad, only a 15 minute walk. Least you're not a stressed final year ;)

    I think they weren't being run by the college officially due to cutbacks,that's probably why you got that e-mail,but the SU filled the gap.:)

    It's a bit more than 15 minutes from UCD to RDS Simmonscourt - more like 30 minutes, a nice walk that should be no problem for most people. For something this crucial, I say it's better to rely on yourself, than try to rely on services you have no control over.
