Re: Natural Sciences TimetableI don't have a weekly timetable as I'm not doing Natural Sciences but I know a few Nat Sci students - they do seem to have busier than average timetables, with up to 26 hours of contact time some weeks. Your timetable will depend on which modules you choose to do. Seeing as Chemistry'll be one of your majors, you'll probably have labs 2-6 most Tuesdays and Thursdays, and you'll probably have early starts.

Re: Natural Sciences TimetableI don't think I would, sorry! The different departments distribute their timetables in different ways, and again it'll depend on which modules you end up choosing.(Original post by blubber_dushi)
okay thank you for letting me know!
would you be able to find out an actual timetable at all? -

Re: Natural Sciences TimetableI'm a biology/geology NatSci and yep the timetable is pretty packed. I can't access the chem/maths timetables but I have friends doing them, and I think the workload is similar for all of the majors. Though you may end up with a lot of chemistry labs.
A basic week for me is labs (5hrs), tutorials (2hrs) and lectures (lots!). -

Re: Natural Sciences Timetablesorry for a late reply but thanks everyone - it's really useful to know!
is chem labs definitely only once a week? Also how often are there assessed chemistry practicals?
also for the minor subject, what are the choices you have to pick from?
