I need to write a Sociology essay for Wednesday but I have no idea about the question I've to answer.

I took out books which I now have a £15 fine for, this sucks.

er sheepy, you are in the first year of uni. Whats the pass mark 40%? just throw together some lame attempt at an essay and youll still get enough marks.

Seems at uni a crap essay gets 52% a good one gets 59%. You have to be pretty crap to fail the first year, especially in an essay based subject (with the obvious exceptions medcine and law)

What Ashley said really...

I done two essays in the first year and didnt spend more than a day on either.

Although i got one to do over christmas that is worth 25% of a module which goes through semester A+B. Only 1500 words though, which would have scared me a few years ago but laughable considering i done a 4000 word report a few weeks back.

i had 6000 words of essay in last week! i spent more time researching and writing them than all last years essays, most of which i did the day before. This year started working on them a fair bit before, cos they actually count.

40% is so easy to acheive it takes the pisss, really they should raise it to 50% just to encourage us to work more in the first year and set us up for later, but hey, i'm not complaining, good old first year, second year isn't to bad either. 3rd year is is blatently going to be trez-a-gay on the work front.

It's like you described my course in one lowly sentence :(
