    Hey well done. 1st Year Comp Sci's a breeze.
    You can "teleconference" from one of the college bars for the year.

    Jelvon, isn't QUB generally considered to be better than Trinity anyway?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 398 ✭✭Jelvon


    umm , i don't know about qub beening better than trinity , can you compare universities like that? hannah i was thinking about staying in derryvolgie halls, the halls of residence look cool enough and a chance to meet other ppl.

    Here in the US, graduate school programs are ranked by a few organizations.

    Is there such a thing as graduate school University or program rankings in Europe or Ireland? If so, where could I find these. Thanks.

    Got computer applications in dcu. don't know anyone going there thou frown.gif

    when are we supposed to get the stuff from the colleges themselves?

    If you've accepted your place in DCU mate you should of gotten your handbook and list of places to kip, if you haven't i strongly advise you to ring the college and see what the hell is going on like

    Got my first choice, Computer systems in UL also got a spot on campus. I'm not too far from home either so I'll be able to get the washing done and some food in the odd time smile.gif. I was worried about the results but in the end i had 125 points to spare goes to show you never can tell smile.gif


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭Farls

    The college itself should send out the student handbook and list of accomodation as soon as you accept the CAO offer even before you accept the offer sometimes information is sent out, a friend of mine is going into second year computers in DCU very hard course he says.
