    Hey guys, I've managed to fracture my right wrist (I'm right handed), and so may be in a cast over the exams, meaning I can't write, and anyway I can't take notes atm which may seriously mess me up. I've email my tutor, but he hasn't replyed yet, anyone else I should try get in contact with? Thanks

    Dean of undergraduate teaching, Head of the department. Ring these people, don't just email. Make sure you have a medical cert.

    Im sure Hugh will be able to help too. See here
    Again ring, dont email.. You'll get a faster response.

    Try and get a copy of notes from a friend who thinks the way you do also.

    Try ring your tutor. Besides that, I don't know. I wouldn't worry tooooo much though. If you have a med cert already I don't think there's any real immediate rush and they'll just let you do the repeats at the end of the summer. But yeah, you should probably just try sort it all out as soon as possible though.

    Go to the college doc & he will sort it. I had something similar happen and the health centre took care of everything. They know what to do - you are not the first!

    My tutor was away so I was dealing with another guy in the same department... who today was also away. So was the student support officer in the Senior Tutors office... so was the senior tutor. And executive officer and head of my department... Finally got through to the examinations office and they sorted everything in about 5 minutes. If you want something done...
