    Good luck, Mankz! I was only joking that time I said you were the antichrist. We believe in you! :p

    (Though the fact that you're on BiT the same day as an exam speaks volumes of your priorities :D)

    I've got all my first-year exams at the beginning of June: EPR, Philosophy and Criminology (ugh). Looking forward to being done.

    All these tests at the same time! I'm worrying for the brewery people in the UK. Overtime will be needed.

    Luck to all.

    The weekend after it's all over is going to be insane. Campus is going to get torn apart.

    But hey, we're paying 'em 3.6 grand a year each, they can afford to fix it all :D

    FP1 was awesome, it was my favourite unit. I got a D in maths but a B in f. maths AS, the f. maths units own :)

    Another thing to keep in mind is that once you are done - you aren't

    In the IT industry I've been to schools and classes for certifications many times. Companies like to have employees and even contractors knowledgeable about current industry needs.

    Java certification, Headend certification, Fiber network certifications, etc.

    Just think of all the beers you have to look forward too.

    Ah, I like the mechanics topics but I don't like FP1, not at all - it just doesn't seem to make any sense to me

    Alastor - can I ask how you find the civil engineering course, it's something I'm looking at doing for uni? :)

    FP1 is a good module. I remember it not being too difficult if you put some work in. Personally, I'm enjoying a year without exams. [/gloat]

    I love it; if you have a decent grasp of maths (doing further maths at A-Level makes it a lot easier) and physics and have a reasonable interest in structures/geotechnics then it's just about perfect I think.
