    Anybody here for TCD Open day or RCSI Open Day? They'll be really good I think. RCSI's generally are really hands on.

    Engineering... Science... And psychology would be the main departments I'd head for, although I'd probably visit the Immunology aswell because I know a few people and hopefully they remember me :p.

    How about you?

    Medicine, Psychology, Law and maybe pop in to the Computer Sci one too if its free. I want to do the general tours too. They should be fun!

    It's going to be CRAZY though. DCU was packed like crazy... Imagine trinity... Especially since it's smaller!

    I'm going to go there early or whatever for sure.

    You never visited the university before?

    Defininetly! But that's part of the fun I think :P I've been before but it will be different as a prospective student I think.

    I'm stuck between that and biomedical health and life sciences in ucd unless I decide to go for medicine

    What's good about the course in UCD? That place looks so bland to me.

    The modules it covers just look so good. It looks like an amazing course, especially if your going into research science. The same could be said for human genetics but that is specialised to one area where as the ucd course is so open

    Wouldn't you just do general science in TCD instead? It covers practically everything and you can specialise in genetics which contain some human and plant modules.

    I love Trinity. It seems like such a nice place, mind there can be a bit of a snobby aspect to it. But I think you just need to find your own clique

    I don't see the snobby aspect. I don't understand when people say that. I've been there many times and talked to a lot of people, they don't seem snobby or posh.

    I'm not a posh person, just someone getting by in life in an average school and area.

    Science in TCD is my first choice... So is engineering :(

    It was much much stronger during Celtic Tiger era, it has died down considerably since then. Medicine in Trinity will always be my first choice.

    You actually think the whole university seems 'bland'?

    In my opinion, it looks like that because of the modern buildings and so. DCU felt the same way, but I'm sure the societies at both make it a fun place despite the location and structural design. :)

    Anyone in fifth year doing Applied Maths? I'm starting the subject next weekend, a little bit of self-teaching and grinds.

    It seems fairly easy and logical. The type of maths that you could visualise and make sense of because it has practical applications :D.

    Ye I am. Are you doing physics cause It really helps especially the starting topic.
