1st year Computer Science, typical time-table?

I was wondering whether any Bham students studying CS has their timetable for the first year hanging about still they could share with me.

Thanks very much!

Here are the first year timetables from last year:
Term 1: http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/internal/timetables/2012/TT-Yr1-S1.pdf
Term 2: http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/internal/timetables/2012/TT-Yr1-S2.pdf

They look a bit fuller than they actually are though, due to the MOMD/maths, as well as modules for CSBM only and the Software Workshop tutorial groups.

In term 1 I had the whole of Thursday off for something like 8/11 weeks, only having to come in for a (non timetabled) marking session on 3 weeks.

You'd have most of the lectures on Monday and Friday, about 3 hours on Tuesday and on Wednesday (sports day) and Thursday, a few lectures or none (but there will be some compulsory tutorial classes). Obviously, this depends on your course.
CS with Business Management (CSBM) have business classes early in the morning but they don't do AI, Intro to Math (required if you don't have A level Math) and Robot Programming. The other 3 combinations, CS with AI/SE and straight CS have the same timetable for their first year and you can switch to any other at the end of the year but NOT CSBM. You must decide if you want CSBM within the first week of the term because you can't miss out AI and Robot Programming to do the other 3.
