I as a law student feel that it is extremely detremental to my chances of obtaining a good degree with the exam timetable as it currently is.
Please reconsider the spacing of exams to allow students to have at least one day off in between exams. This is because in second year there are two compulsory modules on the day after each other and in final year some students will be doing all of their finals in one week and this will unfairly prejudice those students. - If this cannot be done at the very least students should be able to expect from their university no morning exams on the day after an afternoon exam. This is because it leaves less then 24 hours for a student to relax after an exam, eat, sleep and refresh their memory. This problem is compounded for those students that have to commute to and from University.
Yours faithfully,
Concerned law student.

The momentum is clear and the university cannot ignore this volume of voices. We are officially putting this on their radar.

Just give us a day in between. Simple as that.
honestly so burnt out right now. the university really just does not care about our mental health or our degree grades
PLEASE listen to us. finals are stressful enough without being set up to fail by an awful timetable
it is actually impossible to retain info with no break between papers. swansea needs to wake up
The current schedule is a joke. How are we meant to revise for two major modules back to back? Not fair on us at all.

Commuting an hour each way just adds to the stress. Trying to cram in a coffee shop before an exam the next morning is not okay.
