Anyone have any idea when the academic timetables should be up?

DB21 · 17-08-2012 11:20AM

Sometime between the 5th and 10th of September

I think that I had 14 hours in first year for law, history and sociology if that helps? Law hours were about 4 - 6 including a nasty triple on Fridays. I think business had a double before that too...

Bonkers_xOx · 17-08-2012 02:22PM

Can't wait for the timetables to come out!

/nerd.

Boeing777 · 17-08-2012 03:09PM

It is true that Science is 23 hours+ in First year yeah?

Bobsammy · 17-08-2012 03:12PM

Pretty much, depending how many labs you do! The upside is there's nowhere near as much reading or assignments as the Arts courses

Boeing777 · 17-08-2012 03:23PM

Ok I'll be prepared for a busy timetable so!

Do you have to attend all the lectures or can you skip one or two?

:pac: I know attendance for tutorials will go towards continuous assessment so I won't be avoiding them. I presume the labs are mandatory?

GO TO ALL YOUR LECTURES.

I'm sorry, but that can't be emphasised enough, especially in first year science. Labs are mandatory too.

Boeing777 · 17-08-2012 03:47PM

Oh I do plan on going to them all I just wondered would it be the end of the world if you couldn't attend one or two of them!

I'm not going to college for the spin every day! :pac:

Ah one or two missed isn't the end of the world once you catch up and don't make a habit of it! Labs and tutorials are very important though.

One or two lectures missed isn't a big deal, but do your best to get to them all. I'd you do miss some, read up on the notes and keep up to date.

I have nearly 16,000 tweets. But I'm still on not very many posts on here.
Is that better, or worse?

I don't want college to come back, because I'm not coming back. You guys can't continue without me?!

Seren_ · 17-08-2012 08:21PM

Haha I'm the total opposite - have loads of posts on here, but only like 700 tweets. I go through phases of using it loads, and then not using it for a few weeks.

I refuse to join twitter....

mickstupp · 18-08-2012 10:25PM

I use Twitter as a news feed. Have never posted there though.

I'm getting excited. I love the going back to college part of the year. The weather hasn't gotten cold and people are so full of enthusiasm and not all stressed like in March/April/May. And I love seeing people I haven't seen for four months. And I love the bit where you've started classes but haven't yet been hit with essay deadlines.
