1 exam in week 12 ( no study time) , 5 essays to submit before 14th. Only 2 exams in the exam period, one if those on the second day of exams. Only 1 exam left after Easter- compromising the quality of work submitted and causing unnecessary pressure. Essays in place if exams should be classed as exams.

Final year Arts student studying Soc and Pol and Geography. Soc and Pol exams the 15th and 16th of April with a thesis for Geography Due a week later on the 24th. Extremely unhappy and feel its unfair to a final year student to have exams in the middle of a thesis considering there is ample time for exams after thesis due. Also the Library is closed for two days in the middle this hectic time.

I'm tired of getting my fifth English essay submitted two days before my first exam...how are students expected to be prepared for exams with so many essays due the week before. Ridiculous.

It's ridiculous. Not only do I have 2 exams in Week 12, but I also have to hand two essays (2500 and 3000 words respectively).
