manchester foundation year in engineering

Would also be interested as I'm starting in september.

anybody who attended the course????any thing about number of hrs of lectures you got every day. etc

ım starting enginering foundation course in September ) Finally i found someone who is going to study foundation

wow..excellent . have you received any information regarding the course itself,since you have confirmed your place???

i am really,really excited.dunno a tad about what's gonna happen.

Noo ı havent had any information even my confirmed letter.they told me they will send but ım still waiting their letter because ım livin in Turkey so it could take long time.Yes ım an international student.What about you do you have any information ? Im very excided too ı dont know what will happen what ı have to do

Can I start of by saying, going to university you will have one of the best time of your life! The course itself isn't difficult! All you have to do is make sure you keep on top of the coursework and lectures. Physics is actually just some basic thermodynamics. You don't need to prepare much, they will tell you everything you need to know. But if you're really keen then I suggest you brush up on some partial fractions and some maths (as you will be given a small assessment in the first few weeks).

In my opinion the hardest thing is infact settling into the city and once you got that done it'll all fly by. But most of all make sure you don't forget to have fun!!!!
don't hesitate to contact me, always happy to help.

yes ,a few day's ago i emailed an ex-foundation year student and he gave me a little of what we should expect.




hope it helps

Lectures are fine (apart from the 9 o clock ones, grr), and generally the lecturers are good. If you don't like one you'll only have them for a term anyway.

In my halls there were 2 foundation year students, useful for helping with work problems and stuff. I don't think you are absolutely going to have someone on your course in your halls though.

My advice would be to work hard, really hard. Some people I know thought it would be easy, and failed and you don't want to be doing that, trust me.

Try and go over work after lectures so you are 'revising' it straight away, then when you actually need to revise for exams it's a lot easier. The majority of the modules I took had short exams throughout the year before the main exams, revise for these and then it takes the pressure of for the longer exams.

Any other questions, feel free to ask.

thank's a lot.needed exactly this.one question though, like other foundation programmes ,do we need to fill a ucas application again for entry to 1st year or do we progress without that.
