    Current English Lit students?
    Hello.

    I am just wondering if anyone who is going/attends KCL reading English Literature:

    How many times a week are you in for lectures?

    What are the hours? Is it mostly in the morning, late evening or can you choose what time best suits you?

    Many thanks in advance.

    There are basically: 4 modules a semester and one lecture and one seminar per module, each an hour long. So - 8 hours a week. Of course, outside this time you are expected to get all of your reading done plus any extra research on the topic (which would definitely be necessary if you choose to write about a particular text because you can't exactly use the lecturer's ideas, which is what is usually discussed/told in the lecture).

    Timetables change year on year so I can't really say what your timetable would be like. You don't get to choose your own hours though.
