    Hi guys I got my results the other morning and to say the least I'm very upset , I was hardly in school in 6th year due to family and bullying problems in school but I passed my leaving I did foundation maths and ended up with a d2 and needed a b2 for my college offer in DKIT I needed 115 points and got 235 , do you think with the points I got will I get offered it tomorrow and also I failed business but I'm getting it checked did anyone else feel their business grade was unfair ? Thanks

    I definitely felt I was marked unfairly in Business, always been a high B student and my teacher marked pretty rough and ended up with a D in a paper that I thought was fairly nice, definitely getting it checked

    well it says hear student have to reach between 80-90% of the course requirements so she should be safe but im not guaranteeing anything as the points might go up.

    How much do you reckon arts will go up if it does? I'm 25 over but I don't know how safe that is

    Commerce and German- NUIG, I'm 125 points over so I'll be grand. I'm hanging around here to get some points for friends though :p
    I'm taking a year out anyways, going to earn some money and have some stress-free fun in my life.

    So for my friends:
    Medical Science- GMIT
    Veterinary Nursing- Letterkenny
    Biotechnology- NUIG

    And I don't think Arts in NUIG will go up that much if at all, maybe 10 points seeing as there is 1000 places.

    I'm hoping it drops by 10. One of my friends got 290. I doubt it will though. I'd say it will probably stay the same.

    I'm 10 pts over the requirement for my course going by last year's points. However it's law and demand has risen some 11%, according to the IT :( I'm a sourpuss bundle of nerves tonight and I plan on making camp in front of the computer with a book and copious amounts of tea and tayto sandwiches until I find out what's what!

    I should have just gone out and got locked.

    Yeah pretty much everyone I know is going to Limerick! Honestly I think you're better off going to college without your friends so you can make new ones :D

    Hey Everyone, I'm so scared I'm not going to get into the course I want this year. ( Science)
    I got accepted into both the HEAR and the DCU access program.

    P.S to the person who wants to do arts and has the hear scheme I think you need to get a minimum of 300 points.

    #1 tip: When it comes to societies, don't sign up for every single one (like I did). All those emails. :eek::o

    Hey guys, friend of mine is in an awkward situation. He failed to meet the maths requirement for his science course in UL, but will be doing the special maths entrance exam this week.

    What happens tomorrow morning then?
    My guess is he will be offered his next choice, but should he reject in the hope that he passes the special maths exam?
    Or does accepting the next choice course make him exempt from the second round offer should he pass the maths exam?

    Finding it hard to explain, hope you guys can help!

    I have it as my first choice and I reckon it should be around 450 .. Chemical was around 500 mark previous years while other fields were around 400 .. I think they'll go for something in between. 450 should get them the numbers they need for the course. Dont think it will go above 500 anyways and don't think it will go below 400 so there's the range.

    I'm 30 points off the course I want and the points have been the same for the past 4 years (460). I was approved for the hear scheme but could anyone tell me what are the chances I'll get my first choice come 6am?

    Hopefully not that much. I have a friend who has 410. I think demand dropped slightly for science this year so I'd say you're safe.
