law year 2 questions

1 Upvotes

how is lw253 constitutional law yr2 with seth tillman or claire mcgovern,

i looked at the exam papers and tillmans look genuinely scary.

also is lw259 contract law with dr sibo rough? i know its 40% assessment so would anyone be able to tell me if its mcq or project or something different?

company law is 30% assessment and 70% exam, what is the assessment and when? how does a year long module operate?

and finally lw291w eu law and policy 1, is it manageable?

do any lecturers say whats on the exam?

im an arts student going for law in second year but i have to do contract and constitutional.

any advice on these?

Incoming international postgraduate student looking for accommodation in/near Maynooth – any leads appreciated!

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
My brother is an incoming international postgraduate student at Maynooth University and we’re urgently looking for accommodation for the upcoming academic year.
We’re open to anywhere with good transport links to Maynooth, including Maynooth, Leixlip, Celbridge, Kilcock, or nearby areas.
He’s 26, quiet, tidy, a non-smoker, and will be focused on his studies. His rent is guaranteed, and he’s happy to move in before the semester starts.
If anyone knows of a room, a house share, a lease takeover, or has any recommendations or leads, I’d really appreciate it. Please feel free to comment or send me a message.

Thank you so much.

Renting location

1 Upvotes

Im an international student coming into MU for exchange for the sept to jan semester, was looking around the subreddit and other platforms and noticed that students are staying not just in maynooth itself, but dublin and other close by locations as well. Just wanna know how close to Dublin is Maynooth, and it is really a sensible spot to stay in as a future student of MU. I have extra incentives to stay in dublin as well as i am planning on travelling around and exploring europe whenever i am free as this is my first time coming to europe. If you have any advice on where to stay, or travelling tips, or even want to travel together, you can leave a comment or just DM me, thanks!

Looking for a few Maynooth students to help us out! 😊

Hi!

We've just wrapped up our final year and are hoping to get some opinions from students on an idea we came up with.

It's all about student accommodation, and we're trying to see if it's something people would actually use before putting any more time into it.

The survey is completely anonymous and only takes 2–3 minutes.

Survey: https://forms.gle/P1iWkm3CxK4yxmTp8

We'd really appreciate any responses. Thanks a million! ☺️

Has anyone tried ADHD clinics in Kildare after being referred by the university clinic?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I recently visited the Maynooth University clinic, and they mentioned that they can refer students to an ADHD assessment team/clinic in the Kildare area.

Has anyone here gone through this referral route? I’d love to hear about your experience — waiting times, the assessment process, whether you found it helpful, and what happened afterwards (e.g., medication/support if diagnosed).

Any advice or recommendations would be really appreciated. Thank you!

Froebel modules starting earlier

1 Upvotes

Hiyas, my nephew is doing an Erasmus year in Maynooth and has enrolled in a few Froebel modules. He’s received an email saying that those modules start earlier than the rest and that if he misses the first day (Aug 31st), he won’t be able to take them.
Bad news is he did not know this and he won’t be in Dublin that day. He’s been trying to get in touch with whoever is in charge but so far hasn’t heard anything back.
Question, is it THAT strict? Is someone at risk of loosing a year just because they could not attend one day?

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Failing Resits?

1 Upvotes

I'm a 2nd year Science Education student and due to a real bad year personally, I just wasn't able to give it my all and I'm failing most modules. I've been studying this summer but I still feel like I won't pass. I really want to be a teacher, but I just don't know what to do. I can't repeat because then I'll lose SUSI and I can't afford it.

Any advice?

I'm a canadian exchange student for fall 2026 at Maynooth University. I found an accomodation that I need to secure with a deposit, but I just need someone to quickly verify the key and appartment in person to make sure it's not a scam.

Of course I'm happy to offer a monetary compensation for anyone willing to help me today, or really soon!

CS616 Practical Cryptography resit help

I need to resit for the exam (masters). Can anyone guide me on how to study for it? I wasn’t able to attend the lectures due to family reasons and I need help with studying for it. If there are videos that someone can recommend or some notes that anyone has, would be of great help. I’ve tried going through the lecture presentations but they are very bad. If someone can recommend me some YouTube videos to watch to learn everything about the module or help in any other way, it would be greatly appreciated.

Student sharing Appartment

4 Upvotes

Hey,

I‘m visiting Maynooth from Sep-Dec as student abroad. Is there something like students living in shared appartment together? And is there some spot online to find these?

All the other housing situations offer occupied housing with families etc. It‘s nice, but i would rather live together with other students, since the student dorms are not available for international students.

Thank you guys:)

I am still looking for another 20 participants to make my research meaningful!

The link will stay open until tomorrow, midnight on Tuesday the 30th of June, I am grateful for any assistance I can get to make my quota!

My research project for my MSc in Applied Psychology is titled Loneliness, Social Support, and Generational Differences in AI Companion Use in Ireland.
Whether you are interested in AI companions or have experience interacting with AI companions, this research would greatly benefit from your input!

🗣 Participation is completely anonymous.
If you would like to participate, you must;
✅Be over 18 and under 65 years of age and ordinarily resident in Ireland.
✅Be confident and willing to participate with the right to withdraw at any stage.
✅Consent to participate.
✅Not currently facing mental health difficulties or using AI companions for therapeutic purposes.

If you would like to know more, please contact me on [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]).

“AI companions” are like digital friends or characters you can text or talk with whenever you want. Unlike regular AI assistants that mainly answer questions or do tasks, these companions are designed to have conversations that feel personal and meaningful.

I would like to also express my sincerest gratitude to everyone who has participated in, and supported, my research thus far!

Study abroad students finding accommodation - help!!

2 Upvotes

Hi! My friend and I are Australian students doing a semester study abroad/erasmus at Maynooth from September - December.

We ideally would like to live together for the duration of our studies in Ireland, but are having a really tough time finding suitable accommodation. I’ve reached out to 30+ landlords through a combination of Studentpad, draft.ie and various Facebook groups, but have only heard back with rejections from 2 and nothing from the rest.

Is this normal the normal experience of trying to find accommodation around Maynooth? When should we start to panic if we haven’t found anything? I was told by a Maynooth staff member that applying in pairs/groups often gives you a competitive advantage because it guarantees the landlord more rent, but so far I don’t think us applying together has given us any leverage.

If anyone has any other suggestions of where we should look or useful property resources we would be extremely grateful!! Thank you in advance! :)

Graduation

2 Upvotes

I just received my results today from my final year of business (bachelors) and am now wondering about graduation. Has anyone any experience on the graduation days at Maynooth? I'm wondering things like

- when the university gives you information on it such as a time/place etc?

- is it an all day affair like how long do you stay and how long is the ceremony?

- where I will buy the gown and hat or is it borrowed?

- how many family members can come into the ceremony with me?

Any additional info is also appreciated thanks!

Students learning to drive, I built an Irish theory-test app and I am giving free Premium slots

1 Upvotes

Hi all. John here, founder of L-Plate.

I built an Irish theory-test practice app because a lot of students are trying to get the learner permit sorted between college, work, buses, lifts, and general life admin.

It has:

  • timed 40-question mocks
  • road signs
  • weak-area tracking
  • Brendan, an AI instructor, explaining wrong answers in plain English

Main site: https://l-plate.ie

Free Premium founder slots while I am looking for feedback: https://l-plate.ie/free-test/?ref=REDDITFOUNDER25&utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=student_founder_slots

Backup one-month slots: https://l-plate.ie/free-test/?ref=REDDITMONTH100&utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=student_month_slots

If it helps, great. If it is confusing or Brendan is too much of a dose, tell me and I will fix it.
