    Hi Pablo,

    I didn't study for L8, will complete L7 in Sligo next year.

    Lectures were good, if a bit fast, and needed to be watched and rewatched to be understood. Not as good as classroom lectures where you ask questions. For me more stays in the head after a classroom lecture and it's good to have live classmates to ask questions of and discuss assignments etc. The handy thing about online lectures is you watch them in your own time later, which suits me working shifts. Just 2 labs per semester, not too bad and a chance to meet the classmates you only hear from in Whatsapp. Definitely sign up for a Whatsapp group, very helpful. You might spend a bit of time on YouTube looking for info if lecturers are difficult to understand and/or get hold of. All the info you get they understand, you may not straightaway but you'll get there. Try Udemy for some cheap intro courses including Arduino and Labview.

    best of luck with whatever you decide to do.
