The 1st week into the 2nd semester had generally been quite demanding as I've now got 3 practical classes per week as opposed to 2 last semester. I'm pleased however that I have the opportunity to make the most out of them and hopefully learn from my mistakes from before. I've also found it very useful to print out the lecture notes to take with me to each lecture for annotation as this is something which I didn't do very well last term, I'm pleased that this helps my personal learning and helps me to keep better organized. I felt quite lost in the #BS1009 lecture on Friday without a copy for annotation and hope that this can in future be avoided. The tutorials have been very interesting and helpful for #BS1005 and #BS1013, helping consolidate the material taught in lectures, even though they both consist of essays as part of assessment I'm hoping to get the most out of them and to not leave any work to the last minute. - Ahmed Syed
