    Sorry, when I said yesterday that it'd be open I forgot it was a bank holiday and only open to those with keycard access.

    I just want the exams to start already. The Leaving Cert was less stressful than these exams

    When are the exams actually over completely? :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,780 ✭✭✭jamo2oo9

    Is anyone here really good at economics and able to give me grinds for 2 hours? I basically just have a few things I need made clearer.

    From what I can see, not that many. I didn't really look around me though

    Sorry only saw this now! I ran down to the spar cos I needed to get a 2B pencil aswell haha.. They are running low on 2B pencils from what I could see :P

    You're grand :P I don't think that I've ever actually used a 2B pencil for an MCQ exam. I just use whatevers in the pencil case and lean hard on it :P

    As long as you don't use like H5 you should be alright.. :P

    We should really have a "LIBRARY WATCH!" thread tbh. :pac:

    I see what this is... a competitor for my amazing app idea...
    I'm a man who at the moment is very savvy with his business terms so perhaps you'd fancy a merger... That's the only one I can really use but I've a backlog more if things are a go :P

    Can I buy shares in the company? I'll buy ye both a Freddo or sausage rolls. In fact, I'd give ye 1.5 sausage rolls each!

    I'm the same, I can't motivate myself to care about this exam. And even though I'm really bored as I've no essays to do, and there's nothing on FB or boards.ie, I still won't look at my notes. But at the same time I'm convincing myself I can't go anywhere because I have an exam to study for! :pac:

    If I get between 30% and 35% in a module but my QCA is over 2 can I compensatory pass the module?


  • Registered Users Posts: 619 ✭✭✭iLaura

    Assuming that an F isn't either of those grades, yep!

    If I got an F in the exam but it brought me to over 40% overall when you count assignments can I pass? I hope I was nowhere near an F but I'm just trying to reassure myself I passed :P The lecturer said that you don't have to pass the final exam to pass overall so I'm wondering if I could still pass even if I got an F in the exam?

    Yup, not ideal (especially if this years QCA counts towards co-op), but it'll still be a pass.

    I should have got more than that but I'm keeping my estimates low to avoid disappointment haha :P

    I could really do with that library seat checker app right now! Is there many free seats?
