:') Start to swot up on the stuff now and get ahead trying to learn mechanisms (they're a massive part of unit 2 and are really hard - to me anyway :/) before you cover them in class

Yep....It's the worst module. Every opportunity to go wrong...rather sit C4.

This unit is a beast. Shame I have to take it on Thursday. It's a retake.
