ouch that does not include seminars though just lectures so maybe we will have about 10 
you'll have 1 hour a week with your tutor group, 4 hours major lectures then depending on what minors you do it'll probably get pushed to 8-10. i took french which was 2 sessions a week and media which was one, meaning 8 hours a week for me then twice a term a media seminar. you don't choose your minors until the friday when you have you introductory lecture thing, you give in a form and they sort it all out for you. but i'd get thinking vaguely what you want to do, otherwise you'll get there and be all arrrghhhh! hehe.

yeh neither did i after the first 3 weeks.....crazy german lady as i *affectionately* call my tutor didn't inspire our group to learn really...and seeing as we weren't marked on any of it didn't see the point!

Hehe!
Ours didnt turn up to our first one, so then i didnt turn upto the next two, so then got a stroppy email, forgot again, got a stroppy phonecall, managed to turn up, saw that she was nice, turned up for the second time the next week, then left it at that for the rest of the year really!
Also in our second sermester they managed to cock-up the timetable, such that she had us down for one time (which we where busy at) and we had her down for antoher time, which she was busy at!
- Further invetigation revealed there was no time we where both not busy, so we left it at that!
Shes quite nice tho, if i had to call her anything *affectionate* it would have to be "crasy mac loving goth lady" Lol

the worst thing this year was that we had to go because it was a 10 credit module, research plan thing, and so when I'd been a few times she started recognising me and I saw her everywhere....outside the union, sainos....and every time this manic smile would spread across her face and she'd start shouting hello.....I ran away in shame that this orange haired mad german woman knew who I was ....
