    the system/server can't handle it or something. That said, the econ sections are less moderated than other parts... not even sure if there is one actually! *waits*

    For an interview or just in general, would it be more advantageous to read a textbook type of book or something that maybe had a bit more literary value?

    How are you finding them all? If I remember rightly, you already have an A2 module in the bag so there's slightly less pressure!

    Yup, I have M2 done and dusted. I've had to self-teach S2 and S3 because the teacher has been teaching the loony engineers and mathos who want to do M4 and M5. Self-teaching hasn't been too bad and both modules seem to be nice. The FPs are trickier though. There are bits which haven't quite sunk in yet but most of it's ok. How's your exam prep going?

    Ah, if you feel the need to run some S2 by me, go ahead!

    I seem to be revising maths much more than the rest. It's probably because I've already gotten good marks in mocks.

    Which ones? I think it's because they assume people won't be sitting M2 and M3 in the same sitting and likewise for stats (seeing as hardly anyone does S3 and 4)

    You have the weekend until FP3 and it's always like that every year!
