Just letting you all know that I got my exam results today, and they were really good.

Thank goodness!!

Next semester starts next week, and the first week has 28 contact hours, and supposedly it only goes up from there. Yikes!

I’ll post again soon, bye!

    ouch 28 contact hours thats ugly

    maybe it’s a consequence of compressing a 6 year course into 5?

    and come on, what else were you going to get in exams? pass? your notes are like super pretty and super detailed from what I gather haha

    I have 19 contact hours in week one and 27 in week two argh. It usually is 18-20 in odd weeks and 26-28 in even weeks sigh. My engineering friends get it much better

    Haha well my notes might be good but whether they imprinted themselves into my head was what I was worried about… hehe.

    Yeah I’m sure they have to squash it down a little to get it all into five years hey.

    It’s not fair! Lucky engi students!

    When do you start back up again? I’m back into it on Monday.

    Well done with your exams! As for the hours, enjoy the light load while you can. Once you hit the clinical years you can expect 40-50 hours/week.

    You’re probably right Dave, I should be happy with what I have at the moment…

    Anyway are you at UTAS as well? I know of a couple of Daves I think… Or is this DaveL from MSO?

    Congratulations on your survival thus far!

    Thanks again Adrian!

    I must say survival in second semester is a whole lot more difficult than the first. I’ll post an update soon, I’ve been pretty busy though.

    But expect to hear from me soon!
