I would recommend to have a beer while you are listening live music in a pub.
you will find folk music, but also many indie bands....and the most are really good.

All the exams are at the end of the year: a period of exams in the middle of the schoolyear, wouldn't do harm.

UCC is an university where you must work very hard to pass your exams and write many essays and projects during the year. Reading many books to do so could be difficult for those students whose english level it is no very fluent.

Ireland is wonderfull!My personal raccomandation is to travel a lot and visit the Country. And, why not take a flight from time to time( you find 10 euros flight from dublin). Don't be afraid of Irish people: they look cold at the beginnig but when you get to know them, they are really nice and friendly.
