I'm only on a 2-year course, but it could be over and done with in 6 months if it was structured properly and full-time.

For the first year, I paid £3,000 tuition fees, then they realised about halfway through that I'm only on part-time, so they halved it because £3,000 is for full-time. Then, later on, they realised that my course wasn't actually intensive enough for that, so I only had to pay something like £325. It's nice getting a refund of £2,700. :-) Either way, I'm still paying for my education and they ballsed it up.

To get a half-decent job though, you have to pay for half-decent education, so :-P


When my dad took the dog for walks around the UEA, it was the hottest part of the summer, when everyone else was getting flooded. XD And he used to let the dog swim in the UEA Broad, as it's called. Hope she doesn't fall ill now. :-(

Yeah, apparently Trisha Goddard has been spotted jogging around the grounds; and her dog may have died after having a swim in the lake. I've been advised not to, even for a drunken bet (Yes, by a student, when I went to an open day) as I "Will get ringworm".

I'm going for a Joint Honours degree in History and Politics, basically because the two link together quite well, and were the only A-Level subjects I was really any good at!

So what are you studying then? Back when my mum was frequently going to hospital for cancer treatment, my dad used to take her to the hospital, with the dog in the back of the car. He'd drop mum off at the hopsital, then go and park where he didn't have to pay for parking, and whilst he was there, he'd walk the dog around the UEA grounds. It is open to the public. ;-)

So if you ever go outside to have lunch, it's not my fault if you put your food down in ... something ...

UEA, although my mum keeps referring to it as UAE. I don't think there's much sand, oil or camels in Norwich though...

aww, see, i missed out on this side of uni life entirely.
maybe it`s because i went when i was a bit older, maybe it`s because i cared more about getting good results, or maybe i thought the rest of the people there were tools (which was no doubt reciprocated :D )

probably a combination of all 3!

Going in to my second year at Nottingham. Not forward to actually starting to work next year. And moving into a house should be interesting... First year was great though - one of my friends has managed to get a move into a better uni and redo first year there. Jealous.
