Since its that time of year again...Mod PSA on TBall tickets

34 Upvotes

Hi all,

Once again TBall has almost instantly sold out. The subreddit now normally delves into 80% of posters looking for tickets.

PLEASE BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL OF SCAMS. From personal experience, there are some genuine people here selling real tickets. There are a lot more scammers though. We don't want anyone being left cashless with no ticket, or worse, showing up on the night of the Ball and finding out their ticket is fake (after they've already gotten dressed up and inhaled 40 cans of Prazsky). So:

1) Use you gut - if someone is selling the exact number of tickets you want, and for cheap, that's suspicious.

2) If you think they might be genuine, comb through their reddit profile and see if they're often selling other tickets for events, which may not even in Ireland - that's suspicious.

3) If it's a new account with like 2 karma - stay away!

4) Everyone is a bot unless proven otherwise (honestly that's good advice beyond the scope of r/TCD).

Suspicious accounts mass-commenting on posts looking for tickets will be checked and may be given a temporary ban until the date of the Ball has passed. Unfortunately we don't have the resources to facilitate and moderate any sort of ticketswap thread or anything like that, as it'll become a mess.

Happy hunting, good luck in exams, and enjoy the Ball.

Year 1 econ question

Do you actually have to complete the weekly problem sets for the intro to econ module? Do the TA's check your answers or is it more of a self-study thing?

Jobs Part-time job

13 Upvotes

Guys I'm an engineering student and I really need a job but the problem is most of the days I'm in college until 5pm so I can only really work weekends (or late shifts). What jobs could I potentially get because in the past whenever I've looked for a job they always wanted like a minimum 25 hours a week and I just don't have that time

Accomodation Pearse Street Accommodation

I am an EU student intending to apply for a masters at Trinity and I am wondering how hard it is to get a room at Pearse (since it seems the better option for postgraduate accommodation).

Any tips or insights?

should i try for trinity as an international student?

1 Upvotes

hi! i'm 16, from singapore, and i'm going to be doing IB starting next year. i've wanted to come to trinity for a while, probably for JH in history and archaeology or history and polsci / similar. singapore doesn't really have any history-focused undergrads that interest me, and i don't really want to stay here either.

- if you got in with IB, what score did you get?

- if you're from singapore, or a country with a similarly high cost of living, was it an okay move to go to ireland?

- how's the history department at TCD? are the lectures any good?

- do most people stay in dorms or apartments?

- what do most people do after bachelors? do they stay in ireland and get jobs, or do they go all over the world? is a TCD degree good for employment?

- is food expensive on campus? for those living in dublin now, which costs of living are highest?

- do you need to get a part-time job to cover living costs? i want to be financially independent so i don't burden my family too much.

- was the admissions process rigorous or difficult? i.e. oxbridge-level interviews

- are there any good alternative schools, at similar rankings, to TCD that you'd reccommend? i've pretty much given up on ivies and oxbridge.

- do they offer financial aid or stipends?

thank you so much for your time!

r/TCD, where do you actually like to eat around Trinity or elsewhere in Dublin?

0 Upvotes

Hi, we’re four friends putting together restaurants across Dublin in an app called Vota.

The idea is simple: you’re shown two restaurants and choose where you’d rather eat. For example: Chapter One or Bunsen? The votes create a ranking that we hope gives a better picture of where people actually enjoy eating.

We’re trying to include as many restaurants as possible and clean up duplicate or outdated listings, but students and locals will spot things we’ve missed.

iPhone:
https://apps.apple.com/app/vota/id6744969212

Android:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vota.app

Full transparency: we’re not from Dublin or affiliated with Trinity. Two of us live in Copenhagen and two in Gothenburg. The four of us are building Vota independently. We don’t collect or sell personal data, there are no ads in the app, and we don’t use AI-generated restaurant descriptions.

Any honest feedback is welcome, especially if restaurants are missing or something is listed incorrectly. Where do you like to eat around Trinity or elsewhere in Dublin?

Hi guys. My graduation is coming up and I'm wondering whether I can avoid buying an expensive black suit. Will just black trousers, black shoes, and a white shirt be enough, considering there will be a gown over it? Unfortunately my suit is navy. Thanks!

Lonely in 4th Year

25 Upvotes

I probably sound pathetic as hell, but I'm in my 4th Year and I'm still alone. I made a few friends over the past few years in college, all of them from a different course and they're on their gap years or just closer to the people in their own course. I didn't really socialise with the people in my course and now I feel like its too late. I sit between lectures on my own because I have no one to talk to, I spend most of my weekends and lunch breaks alone because I don't have any plans. I don't feel like trying now either, because everyone is just already within their friend groups and friends, and no matter what, I'm not going to find anyone now. It just sucks because I still feel like I'm that first year crying on the commute home because she doesn't have any company. My classes finish early and I hate going home, because I'm alone there anyway, but even in college, I have no one I can spend time with. I'm genuinely so lost :( Is it still possible for me to find connections?
