oh that sounds hard and interesting
2nd year for me also, somehow im shocked that ive come this far.

A few years ago it would have been incomprehensible.
I went from barely having a HS diploma, lacking a year of qualification for any university in europe, to a entering second year of a quite good uni in literally 2 years.
Finished my second year in May and am going into my third sometime in September. A bit nervous but more sad and nervous of the future and of leaving uni. Although I’m planning to stay on and do a masters so I won’t be leaving just yet.
I was the same when I was going into 3rd year. Finished this year and after 4 years, it’s been difficult. I’m the only one in my class not going on to do a Masters as I can’t get funding - too old.
ME!! I'm absolutely petrified. Everyone else in my course can't wait for the final year to come but I feel like I need a goof 6 months off to be able to face it. I have this sense of impending doom. :/

I'm slightly scared. No idea how I'll choose a research title and even go about doing it for 8months.
I'm going into my third year in September. I'm not feeling nervous yet, but before that I need to do a 5 week mapping project (starting Monday), which I'm a bit apprehensive about since it's a major part of third year assessment. Fingers crossed it'll go well
Definitely more apprehensive about this year than I have been for previous years. Not too concerned about my actual modules - they all look really interesting - but my dissertation terrifies me. We had to submit dissertation proposals on the last day of term and my idea is a little atypical so I’m imagining turning up in September and being told it’s useless. Hopefully I’ll get a good dissertation supervisor who can allay my fears!

Bournemouth was a complete disaster, needed a fresh start really badly and I failed a module quite badly too, so there’s no point in resitting. Hopefully Swansea is nicer to me
First I was afraid. I was petrified. Still scared sh*tless
