    4. Who would want to go to Dublin anyway? The price of a pint is ridiculous.

    What's the price of a pint got to do with getting an education?

    /didn't go to a Dublin college.

    Did you actually read what his teacher said ? ->That university is for Dublin elite and IT's for everyone else. I make no apologies for saying that is both elitist shite and tripe all at once

    S/he was joking about your use of "you're" instead of your.

    Indeed. All I was commenting on was the use of "you're" instead of "your".

    There's no such thing as a prestigious secondary school in this country.

    "Prestigious secondary school" - horse shit, it's just a dumping ground for doing the leaving cert.

    Nah my sarcasm was self-evident and didn't need a smiley. I was looking for a "this person joke does not inspire any facial reactions in me" smiley. A blank features smiley.

    Don't be silly, we need scientists. BAs should be cut first, if anything.

    Ok but could we make an exception for people like me who were given a BA in science :D

    I'm in school atm however; Our teachers pushes the idea that universty is for the educated of Dublin society, where an IT is a place to put rest.

    Contacts can be made in TCD/UCD, that lead to a big house, a big car and a big pay cheque

    :pac:

    As a UCD student I can safely say 'contacts? my ar$e'
