Timetable help please derby uni

LMK2020

I have just logged into my Derby uni account for the first time and had a look at my timetable, and I am so confused. There are multiple lectures for the same modules and it's telling me I'm in five days a week. That doesn't sound right to me? The whole thing is just confusing so I'm really hoping we will be given some guidance and support on how all this works. I have childcare to arrange before I start and that timetable does not help at all. It also states I start on the 20th September which also seems incorrect as that is quite early. If anyone has any advice or info regarding this that would be great.
Thank you!

from what i can see this doesn't seem too abnormal - 20th september start is earlier than some but still sounds feasible, and multiple courses have lectures every day and more than one lecture per module per week (especially stem subjects and other especially content/information-heavy courses from what i have observed). the overall message i've had from my uni (i'm going into my second year for context) is that doing a fulltime course is like doing a fulltime job, so therefore the idea of being in five days a week makes sense when looking at it like that.
if you're concerned i recommend getting into contact with someone at the uni to clarify - i'm not familiar with the uni of derby but i imagine the university website might have contact information for you to use? also if derby uni has a forum on here, that may be an easier place to start with. hope this helps, best of luck with everything x
