Come on, one and all to the TSR Brunel University Students thread!

I know there wasn't Brunel students thread before, so I set on up since, well us freshers won't stay freshers for long, and if there is any questions, feel free to ask!

[Norfolkadam]

Oh hello, new thread new world.

I no longer have flu! Yay. I mean I am still expelling snot at an amazing rate (where does it come from, 150 tissues I've used in 2 days).

I need to do some reading today. I can't believe I stayed in bed until midday. Shocking.

Wow, what halls are you in? Such a lengthy sleep is impossible in most of the halls. Well it depends on how heavy a sleeper you are.

Kilmorey. My flatmates are fairly quiet it's just the noise outside my window that drives me nuts. The next person who shouts either;

"FCC! FCC! FCC!"
"We are Bishop's Barmy Army"
"Oggy, oggy, oggy"
"Oy oy oy"

or

"West London is wonderful it's wonderful it's wonderful it's wonderful"

Is going to get a copy of "Social Research Methods" by Bryman implanted into the back of their skull at 3am.

Haha, I love it when students beg west London when we've got a 'UB' postcode, Although we're in Hillingdon. It's a tough one.

Go you!

I'm studying Law (4 year thin sandwich). In my 3rd year but it's Level 2.

Thin sandwich is so, awkward.

Oh dear you're such a long way from anything. I got the U5 bus back from West Drayton the other day and got off down by Brian Winstanley and Syd Urry halls (couldn't they have just called them Winstanley and Urry?) and it's suuuch a long walk to the Lecture Centre.

I'm here in Kilmorey (Bishop Complex) and I think it's a long walk.

Well we started applying for placements towards the end of the second term and started having interviews etc around late May/June time, although it was later for some people. It's awkward because you do your complete first year in year one (makes sense) but then for the first term of year two you're on placement while the others are starting level 2 modules in their second year. You'll start level 2 modules in the second term of year two, you'll only complete 3 out of the 6 as you can't cram all 6 into one term. So you'll continue with the other three level 2 modules in year 3 for the first term (the stage I'm at now), then go on placement for the second year and then finally return for your final year.

That probably seemed very confusing.

They've gotten rid of the thin sandwich programme for law now, if you want to do a placement course for law you'll do the thick sandwich (one full year placement instead of two 6 month placements like the thin).

I thought they'd change all course to thick sandwich, but obviously not for your course.
