Exams *before* Christmas

[Orcas]

Sorry, I don't buy the develop as a person, if I knew that I could leave now and go work (but can't since a degree, for reasons I've not yet gotten a clear answer for helps you in the world) I would. I'm already independent, good with money, hard working, yadayada. Sitting in the library and writing essays isn't developing anything for me besides an annoyance at the whole system.

However, as I'm trying to find out what I will get out of my time here, if you have anything you would like to relate, I would be interested and possibly swayed in my views.

But hey, some people like being a student and the life style that comes along with it. Just not me.

(Plus, I'm an American, I have to pay wherever I go:))

Quoting BasilSeal from 18:32, 14th Jan 2007
This was a *great* system, especially if you got three exemptions in your first two years. Then you essentially got the third term off... Which was a lot of fun for all the obvious reasons, plus the fact that you could then just pop into lectures when you liked the subject, whether you were taking the course or not. I recall that the anthropology lectures on gypsies were especially well-attended.

Of course, this also came along with having all your finals (which, in Arts, determined your entire degree) in a week or two at the end of your fourth year, so it wasn't all roses.

Or you could just lounge around in the sun all day and wander down to one of the beach parties by night.

Or start drinking at 11am.

Which actually lost its appeal quite quickly, to my great surprise.
