Does anyone else find university hard?

Also it helps if you're interested in the module you are studying.

I know that there are a couple of modules that I dislike very much and as a result I spend less time on them because the fact that the lecturers for that module are **** combined with a lack of interest for that specific module ultimately makes it harder.

I seriously didn't care about my bachelor's. I nearly dropped out and am glad I didn't, I chose to see the thing through. But I didn't care that much and scraped through by cramming information from one or two textbooks at the last minute.

I'm completely stoked about my master's though. It will be hard work but the most relevant thing I've done academically in my life. My attitude and experience are both very different now, and I really care about the subject matter, as well as the practical applications. Can't wait for Autumn.

I'm currently marking first year undergrad essays (in politics), and I can confirm that you're not the only one who finds university difficult.
