Re: You know you're a student when...I find the best lecturers are those that expand on the stuff that is said in powerpoints.(Original post by tillytots)
You complain when your lecturers just read off their powerpoints.
But you also complain when they don't have them,so you actually have to pay attention

It's only when they speak too fast for you to put the extra stuff down that it's a problem, and then only put the slides up online (and not their notes)...
