    Oh sh...

    Brizzle Uni have done an amazing job allocating my exams.

    They start in just over a month. I have one each day from 22nd - 25th May, then 29th, 31st, 1st June, 5th - 6th. 17 hours in total.

    Naturally, the hard ones are in the middle of them all.

    Just relax, remember not to cheat, remember the stuff you should have learned, and you should be fine!

    I got A-Levels soon, and I'm gonna fail the lot 'cos I can't remember jack. Never mind, eh

    I don't mean to rub it in but my exam timetable is probably the best I've ever had. My exams are on 14th, 18th, 21st and 29th May. The order they are in is pretty good as well. I'm so glad I only have 4 exams this semester, it's been a tough year.

    Everyone else in my house finishes about a week before me. So much for over and done with

    To whoever asked, I do CSE - Computer Systems Engineering (a mix of Computer Science and Electronics & Electrical Engineering). Yeah, it's hard, but it's fun

    Well I was hoping somebody was going to come in and say "don't worry, mine are much worse".

    Guess that's not looking likely

    I did my degree in Electrical Engineering, what a nightmare!

    22 hours a week, 5 days a week, spaced everyday between 9:00am and 6:00pm, 20 miles from where I was living.

    Hated it

    Mine were worse when I had them, if that makes you feel any better? Especially the first year ones which because it's silly cambridge NatSci you have to basically do four subjects each with 'practicals' as well as written.
