Anyone else revising over christmas?

No, for the second time in 5 years (excluding my university placement) I don't have exams in January...wooooooo!!!! 4 years of revising over xmas (excluding school) got very tiresome.

I'm currently deciding whether to do a PhD or not, edging towards not. I'm in the final year of my MSci and it's not really that exciting to me. But then not much is tbh!

Quite fancy working my way up the ladder finally and earning some dough.

I can see where you're coming from. After my BSc I did wonder about a PhD but now doing my MSc I just want to go out and get a job, no more revising and working all your days, just a standard 9-5 (or specific period of work) where you can go home and just relax afterwards without having to worry about all the work that needs doing.

The idea of finally having money is good too...

I thought this too, but then work throws up some surprises meaning late nights and stress! It is still better than revising, but not better than being a student.

Well this course was introduced as the hardest thing you will do in your life (job being easier...:/) so...

Anyway, finished my exams yesterday thank god! Party party all day yesterday and back normal uni work on Monday. We were hoping to do something big this weekend as it's about the only one we will have off until easter but no one could decide and thingss like activity centres seem to be shut.

Just got to wait for the exams results and hope I pass!

Four exams this month

One Microeconomics exam, one stats, one on international relations and one on demograhics.

Demo and international relations ain't too bad but I'm going to have to do a lot of work on stats over the next coupla weeks

Always hate Jan exams

Can't wait until they're done, roll on the 26th
