Is it just me, or is that a bit late? I remember it being at least a couple of weeks earlier than that, I would've been expecting it next week.

I dont think its a bit late. Was it that late in previous years? Last year was mid November iirc

Exams are from the 8th to 19th. What course are you as each course has different amount of exams so that's a factor in timetable as well. I was first arts last year so had 4 exams but science, engineering etc will have more than that

Had a quick search through my emails, last year it was 13th Nov, year before the 14th Nov, according to the SU Weekly emails sent. So it's about on par with previous years.

Just checked there, 13th was when we received word, my bad on that, was almost sure it was a bit sooner. How late it comes in relativity to Christmas is a tad annoying, but as a FY BIS student I suppose it does give me a tad longer to study so **** it. :pac:

Thanks a lot exams office. Exams are scheduled for between 8th and 19th so why the hell do you have to have scheduled 3 of my 4 exams over 2 days in the first week??? :mad:

If there's others in your situation, get together and complain to the lecturers. They may be able to get the exams office to change the timetable.
