Finally up and ready to start revision/essay reading for the day. The plan is read through last EU article, make notes on immigration and then make notes on Progressivism (American History again)

Been up helping my mum with various things for 6 hours, came to finally do work, thought I'd just lay down for a few minutes. Dozed off now I feel awful

NEED TO FINISH POSTER AND START WITNESS STATEMENT OMG

[areyouthere?]

More DPS.

Discovered there are in fact 23 lectures I need to cover. Through 17, missing 18 as it's god awful and if it does come up I can probably skip it (and it hardly comes up anyway). So, 5 to do and it's 3.30pm. I'm not going anywhere today so I'll decide if I want to finish it today or not later.

I have been working almost solidly since 11am and only got through 3 lectures, so doing another 5 when brain powers dying is wishful thinking.

Time goes way too quickly, I really wish my sleeping pattern wasn't so messed so I could get up before 12 but I dont work well when sleepy.

needsome advice, got a lab report due in tommorow and I'm worried about the wordcount

currently I'm just short of 700 words, I could possibly squeeze another 100 out, but I'm nopt sure if that enough.

However the experiment I'm writing it on is far shorter compared to the others I've done time wise and content wise, the first two were 3-6 hours lab time this one only took two hours

Depends on your year and course I think.
For example: for one lab session of 3 hours our reports (Forensics, 2nd year) are expected to be roughly 2,500 to 4,000 words long.

first year, there isn't really much to write about though the experiment was literary load a program, setup the initial conditions, run the program, record some values do a handful of calculations

How is it structured? For example, standard lab report is: abstract (not always present), intro, method, results, discussion, references, appendices

Which would tend to bring up the word count to at least 1,500-2,000

If yours is question structured and not a standard report then it'd be less

Had a day on the boat today (I'm now feeling a bit seasick as I can't get used to being on normal land!)... also, I went to print my lecture notes off - 5 minute job turned into a 30 minute job after waiting for slow faffy girls to stop photocopying and then stopping the massive repeat of pages that some idiot had printed out because they clearly don't know how to use a printer system and sent it through about 8 times.

I suppose if it's mainly calculations (and they're not in the word count) then 700-900 is fine. But you could probably bump it up a bit with the analysis (sounds like discussion) and conclusion. Aim is aim, can't change that, procedure you could swing (so word count up or down depending on what you need) and results would probably be another load of graphs and calculations (so not many words). Don't really know....not trying to sound condescending but I've never written something below 1,000 words (simply because I'm not allowed to. God I wish I could).

Passed my 2nd semester coursework! Yippee! 62% & 67%. Now I need to keep that grade up for the May exams and get at least a 60% in my dissertation and I'll get a 2:1overall - that makes it sound so easy lol.

So tonight I'm working on the disse and the weekend is going to consist of some major revision & disse writing. Hope everyone is doing well and not stressing too much.

[Antifazian]

need some opinions...i'm at the point where I can recall 6 topics for each module from memory, enough to write essay answers on them in an exam - should I just continue going over these each day, or try to learn more, as in additional references/case studies for each topic etc? My first exam is on the 16th of May so quite a way to go yet.

[Kim-x]

Not entirely sure on this as a title page, bearing in mind that the module involved cars. Yay or nay?
