Who else is feeling the workload squeeze (assignments/dissertation etc)?

I know I am!

I've just knocked an 8.5K work Planning and Scheduling assignment on the head, which was based on planning the production sequence/facilities/layout, estimating and applying costs etc for the manufacture of table saws (of all things).

Two weeks hammering away every free evening for several hours and all the free weekend time I had.

It's not over though, I've got 8 weeks to do another 3 assignments. All of similar length.

I knew I should've got higher education out the way sooner!

So, who else is going to be shacked up in their office for the next X weeks?

Sounds nightmarish!

We'll be out the other side soon though. I can't wait for the first BBQ of the summer, relaxing with a beer, and not having to think about assignments!

I'm 75% done on my second of my 4 main assignments this year (6.5K words in so far). I've then got next week to do as much damage as I can on an advanced CAD assignment, and a month to polish off a big Project Management assignment. There's now a (dim) light at the end of the tunnel!

Plugged away for 7 hours today on a management assignment, and got another 4K words down (just past 10k now). I kept hitting the wall after about 4 hours, and couldn't concentrate no matter what I did, so came here for a few minutes at a time to clear my head.

Very nearly finished that assignment, another half an hour and I'm done. It'll all be over soon...

Aghagagh my brain's melting.

Just finished a 100 page advanced CAD assignment (printed off yesterday), and have the conclusion, progress log, referencing and appendices to complete for my (so far) 15K word project management assignment (to hand in by 5pm Friday, so should finish tomorrow/Thurs after work). Zzzzzzzzzzz.....

All finished for the year on Friday though (bar a meeting), so I'll be able to clean my cars at last! \o/
