Great video but I have one question: Were A levels hard? Cause I am also an internatinal student and we don't have A levels in our school and it kind of frightened me when I saw that with almost perfect academic results you still got rejected. That just sounds unjust
@MarioFabeloАй бұрын
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.

Please how did you get into Trinity college?was it through a scholarship? what exams did you write? what procedures did you take?
@MarioFabelo2 ай бұрын
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!
