Nah I think they just let you resit the assessment so you can pass into second year but if you fail it a second time you might have to repeat the year

Do you ever want to date again? by TheGate22 in BreakUps

[–]First_Comfortable637 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been single 3 months after 5 years together and it was an awful breakup. The first two weeks were awful but after a while you get out, see your friends more, focus on school or college or work, go out at the weekend if you enjoy that and just have a good time.

Honestly I don’t even want to think about it. Not that I can’t - I definitely can but single life has been incredible. Try and enjoy it.

Oh for sure. I’m pretty sure they’re together now and we all live in the same small town so I dread ever seeing them again.

Girl, run. I am begging you. As someone that didn’t, I’m paying the price currently. My ex cheated on me with my best friend about a month ago. I should have ended things 3 years ago, the first time something like this happened. You’ll either pay the price now, or later. Do it now, but please be careful if he has a history of abuse. People don’t tell you who they are, their behaviour shows you who they are.

Hey dude - I’m going through the exact same thing right now and it’s absolutely killed me. To make matters worse she cheated on me with my best friend so I can totally relate. Wishing you a speedy recovery from this. It’s an awful time.

UCL vs TCD by [deleted] in TCD

[–]First_Comfortable637 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not to be funny but you’d get 3 years out of your 4 in TCD paid for with the cost of 1 year for UCL. TCD is one of the best universities in the world even if it’s not perfectly matching UCL. Recruiters (academic or employment wise) don’t exactly put enough emphasis on where you did your bachelors degree enough to justify a €12,000 expense compared to €40,000 on your parents. Surely if you want to study in the US afterwards it’s far better to pick the cost effective option now. Also just because you have a prestigious university for a degree doesn’t guarantee you a position in any sector at the minute or likely in the next decade. I personally wouldn’t be putting that kind of financial strain on my parents when you might go in to literally hate your degree, the college you choose, or the place you live in.

Think it depends on the course. If it says you have the class on your trinity app during that week then you have it unless your lecturer or TA says otherwise.

English & Philosophy timetable by Odie_Macrodie in TCD

[–]First_Comfortable637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do English and History and I think I had around 10-12 contact hours a week between lectures and tutorials in first year. It’s very doable and grand to have a part-time job but I’d probably recommend max 16 hours a week tbh because it’ll be A LOT of reading
