Love to hear that!! I’m organising a first year meet-up as a way to chat with you guys about any questions you may have and just hang out and get to know other people! DM me on Instagram if you’re interested and I’ll add you to the group chat : )

Thank you so much! Wow!! It’s amazing to hear! You definitely miss the challenge of university and experiencing the journey! Best of luck! Never stop learning! 😄

Thanks man!!! I think that you’re going to love it! Grande jefe 😃🫡

Thank you, Daniela! Same! Fun always has to go first! 😃

That’s so cool!! You’re an OG then! Where are you looking for applying?

@@MarioFabelo The AL result in s23 was staggering, so firstly I need to retake my CS next month. I predicted there would be two A* but there will only be at most 1 today. My interests are on Phy and Cs and my tutor advices me to apply for engineering in Manchester or University of Edinburgh, which the requirements are 3As

@@chrisli2309 That sounds like you’re going to smash those A Levels!! Manchester or Edinburgh seem really good unis! I had always wanted to apply to Edinburgh or St Andrews but then Brexit happened and now I’m luckily in Dublin 😃

No worries, Van! Thank you for reaching out! You made my day! I love when someone reassures me that there’s actual people watching my videos 😂🫶

That’s so cool! Hope to see you around campus! What are you going to be studying?! Thank you for watching 😃

​@@MarioFabeloMathematics! Hope to see you too!

@@ivanesc1598 oh cool!!! Do you want to come to a casual meet-up that I’m organising at Trinity on the 18th? If so DM on Instagram and I’ll add you to the groupchat : )

@MarioFabelo OK I just sent it!

Thank you, Udita! This took ages to edit 😓😂

@@MarioFabelo ya the effort is indeed evident!! 👍

That’s a mirror lol. Thanks my g 😎

Thank you! I’ll probably see you around! 😄

Wow, thanks Future Doctor!! 😉 I remember your comments on previous videos! Go and crush it!! Uni is really cool! You’ll see!

@@MarioFabelo Thank you sm n u too ! ❤

You’ll be fine! If I ended up entering… also, CAO points are decreasing from now on after the inflation caused by the pandemic. This year I would have got in first round but yeah. It’s fine! Just focus on smashing those A Level exams 👊🏻😄

Thank you, Chiara!

The difficulty of A Levels probably depends on the subjects and quantity chosen. I chose all 3 STEM subjects (Chem, Phys, Maths) along with Spanish 1st Language and forced myself to choose Further Maths and sit the exams even if we had just one class per week and I didn’t go hardcore into it, which I should have done to achieve B, A or A*. I was unlucky in some aspects. First, it was just out of the pandemic; grade inflation in Ireland was astronomical compared to A Levels that had forced general decrease in grades to counteract the inflation. Therefore, with the points I got from 4A’s (531). As an EU student that has to apply through CAO which is based on grades only, I had a big disadvantage that year. Just a year later, the points for the First CAO Round were below my 531. If I had applied the later year I would have been accepted straight away. Then, there was also a part of my own exam performance. I did well but the fact that we had a new Physics teacher in Y13 probably influenced in me not reaching the A* and then I was just very unlucky with Spanish, getting an 88% instead of a 90% and not even getting a 90% on the remark. But well, two years later I can’t even imagine how I went through all that and still made it.

I applied as an EU student so I had to do it through the CAO for Irish and EU students. If you are international then you apply directly to Trinity through their website I think. Here is the website for all the possible scholarships: www.tcd.ie/study/international/scholarships/undergraduate/ You should try to reach out to Trinity Global to ask about this! They will know way more than I do!

You’ll be joining 3rd year you mean?!

yes sir as a Computer engineer @@MarioFabelo

@@MarioFabelo btw i find your video really helpful 😄

@@Nani-nr8dw How come? are you switching courses or transferring?

@@MarioFabelo yup something like that

Thank you, Nakul! Also wish you the best for this upcoming year 😄

Ojo, nunca sabes amigo! Qué vas a estudiar en Galway?!

@@MarioFabelo Voy a estudiar Biotecnologia en Galway, pero me hubiera gustado hacer biological and biomedical sciences en trinity y luego especializarme en microbiologia al tercer año. Aunque bueno, voy a intentar hacer alguna transferencia si es posible a alguna universidad de Dublin, porque es que me encantan muchisimo la ciudad

Cómo, Víctor?! 😂

YEEEESSSS SIRRRR!!! 🇮🇪🇪🇸

As an EU student you can apply at CAO up to 10 Level 8 and 10 Level 6/7 courses. I only applied to 2 Level 8 but I could have applied to 10 Level 8

@@MarioFabelo ok ! So I can apply at CAO to, for example, 2 courses at the trinity and at 2 courses at the UCD, right? I’m from Italy so I’m an UE student, too.

@@michelazardini8432 yeah! You can definitely have as many courses as you want (up to 10) from the same uni on your CAO list. But be aware that the order of preference is important. The first and highest offer on the list will be the only one that you receive on first round (if you receive one) and you’ll be somewhat forced to take that one

@@MarioFabelo okay thank you very much!! You’re such an angel giving people this informations and being so kind. Best regards

@@michelazardini8432 no worries!!! Love to do it! Let me know any other question that you may have!!
