Hey guys! I'm a current first year Optometry student at Plymouth, if you have any questions about absolutely anything feel free to pop me a message ( or if there's worried parents with questions!). I've been through all of the stress last year and I know I would have appreciated having someone I could have asked about the course or Plymouth in general, hehe. Good luck for exams! We've got our last 2 next week, then we can party

Hi, was just wondering, what has your timetable been like for your first year and also how many exams have you had and when? Thanks for your help.
Hi, was just wondering, what has your timetable been like for your first year and also how many exams have you had and when? Thanks for your help.
The timetable was busier before christmas. We were in everyday for roughly 3 hours. After christmas we had a Wednesday completely free from lectures.
There are 7 modules in total. 1 is continuous the whole year, 2 before and 3 after Christmas.
The first module EBP is a coursework module where you will need to write a 1500 word essay which will be due to hand in for January. There are 2 exams the 2nd week of January. Human anatomy and Physiology is a multiple choice exam and Geometric and Physical Optics is a short answer exam where you answer 3 from 4 questions. Another module called Clinical Skills will have a post placement reflective essay due in for January as well.
In the Summer there are 3 exams in May. Ocular anatomy and physiology which is split into 3 sections- multiple choice, short answer and diagrams. Visual Optics and Ophthalmic lenses is a short answer exams where you will select 3 out of 4 possible questions to answer. The OSCE which is the other component of clinical skills is a practical exam and you will have a series of 5 stations.
The other module Visual Perception is a coursework module. Various lab activities are carried out throughout the year and based on the results you write a lab report for each one. Our hand in date was late April.
Hope this helps! x
