Lousy suggestion of the day:
Do they have room numbers yet? (I forget.) Rock on up to uni one day and time it. >_>;

They recomend doing 3 first and 4 second, but I'm doing 4 first, 4 second. The Vic planning lady that came to SMC said if you work had and tend to get M's or E's you should be fine.
When they say 1-2 the lecturre isn't actually 1 hour it's 50minutes (Oh the bonuses of planning your course with someone who is there and knows this stuff lol)

You can totally handle four in your first trimester.

As for taking back-to-back classes, it's not at all a problem. From 8am-12pm classes at Kelburn start on the hour and finish 50 minutes later, so you have ten minutes to get to your next class. From 1 onwards, they start at 10 minutes past the hour and run for 50 minutes. So, between 12.50-1.10 there in 20 minutes lunch break for the whole campus anyway.

Hope that wasn't too convoluted ... the point is, you'll be fine :).

And thanks for working those Saturdays for me a few weeks ago! :)

Thank you very much, that's brilliant.
Now, if I can only get the scholarships...

No worries. If you want anymore saturdays off, just tell me. More money is always good. And Saturdays are fun!
