    Other than the guys who are going to gigs around that time, I really don't get why you're all getting so worked up about it. Who cares exactly when they are or what order they're in, you know you have 4-5 weeks so why don't you stop moaning and start studying and you'll find out when you find out...

    Gig stuff aside, I've always found it a little comforting to know when exactly I'll be facing each exam. At the moment it's just a frightening blob of time called 'exams', having the timetable kind of unmasks it all and takes away some of the worry.

    While its a quaint ideal to assume everybody should just get their head into their books and study for the exam period ahead, the fact of the matter is there are plenty of students who will be using periods between exams etc to do most of their last-minute cramming.

    Of course I'm studying, but it would be nice to know if two of my most difficult papers are on the same day or a couple of weeks apart. And asides from gigs, theres a 4-month summer ahead which could be better planned if I knew what dates I was finishing on.

    Anyway, they're out on Monday now so I'm not too bothered. But would it be really too much to ask to have them out a little earlier next year?

    Better than I expected too. A bit of crapness but then I did choose to do a broad curriculum course.

    Got away with not having any in the RDS last year, but this year I have 4 out of 5 there :( Besides that, it's a good timetable. Nice and spread out, worst exam last, and they're all on from 2 til 5!

    The School of Medicine is always so annoyingly disorganised. My timetable's not up yet, and now I'm dying to know when I'm done. Gah.

    Science timetable's pretty fair if you ask me. Seems better spread out from what I've heard about previous years.

    Immensely frustrating how subject choice for a single course can mean some people have all their exams over the space of a week and a bit and others have nearly the full four weeks over which to complete them.

    Ah well; at least I know when I'm finished now.

    Also beware caching when trying to check your timetable; for reasons I don't quite understand I had to switch browsers to view my timetable as Adobe Reader (or Chrome) was caching an older version of the timetable from within Chrome.

    6 exams in two weeks, least I've ever had by far. And getting 40 is the same as getting 100. Yeah baby.

    SO...I have an exam in something which we were told we would not be examined in...i hope it's a mistake. It was meant to be an assignment which counted for 100% of the module and was told that in writing by the lecturer (the module was completed at christmas) and now this shock!
