I think I'm alone in every single one of these subjects this semester, as far as AN goes. :(

I reckon all my subjects will be substantially easier than yours, but maybe I'm biased because I'm a tree-hugging, nature-loving outlier of a science student.

I looked at the lecture recordings and there's definitely a tutorial. I think they may call the tutorial a lecture because it's recorded and there is only one tutorial time with no other tutorial options, I guess it's more of a lectorial.

Post by: 90+FTW on July 06, 2014, 06:02:23 pm: I slept in when the classes were released - typical me. Thankfully; however, I still managed to secure my subjects. In short, I am continuing with Latin, The Principles of Business Law, Law in Society and Myth Art and Empire.

It should be an interesting semester! Good luck to everyone.

What sort of classes are they? If some of them are lectures you might be better off watching them online later on to allow for a break.
so 2 lectures, 1 2-hour workshop and then one lecture. I don't do well with watching lectures online :/ thanks for the tip though

It really depends on the rest of your schedule and their time slots (assuming they are at different times).

I had a tute on Friday last semester that was three hours long. Long story short: not fun, never doing it again unless I have to.

For most subjects tutes cover the previous weeks' lectures, so I would say Monday so you don't get content mixed up.

Don't you live on campus? Just go home for a nap!

Spoiler
Yes, that is basically my solution to anything

I live 1.1 kms away (not on College Crescent, Medley is too ~*hipster and individual*~ to be part of the mainstream crowd) that involves walking 4.5 kms a day instead of 2.2, NOBODY LIKES EXERCISE.
(I probably will just go home, #perksofcityliving.)

(Napping is my solution to everything, too; I think I slept in every biochemistry lecture this semester :') )

Russ how are you liking the MD?

Is interesting. There are lots of good things and bad things but it's certainly a lot of fun to go through. I'd do it again, even though I'm not sure what I want in the future. Ask me again in three months when i'm busy regretting having done no work for the year and it's exam time though?
If you have specific questions I can answer them, but those are my thoughts on the MD

Yeah, and I generally found the pracs a lot less busy then second year pracs. They can still be pretty hectic, but the fact that they're so long means that they can take a more leisurely pace compared to second (and first) year pracs.

A few weeks you'll only have a couple of hours of actual lab work (although you'll still have worksheets/exercises to do.)

100% first. Early finish on thursday and I think there are too many breaks in the second timetable that you would eventually get sick of.

4 hours is the longest you go without having a break, which in all honestly is not that bad, considering the amount of hours you have. I definitely prefer the first timetable, but maybe that's because I think breaks between classes, besides lunch breaks, are nothing short of boring.

Take the 1st and attend the workshop but ditch the other lectures if you don't feel like it or if you're too tired. (make sure to catch up on them though!) :)
