yup definitely, i went to the library armed with a listful of books to get (which i had seen in the catalogue as being available only the previous night!!!) and only managed to get two. the others were all gone. and this was at like 11am the next day. so resources are in high demand :uhhuh:

I didn't raid the library the day beforehand of everything in the research library that i could get my hand on. actually, i only found about four or so books in the reserve section out of about twenty, so i guess it's not an isolated thing.
how was the speech?

It's not bad. Credit is dandy. Plus if your tutor is a hard marker (or another tutor is an easy marker) then your marks tend to get pulled up.
1018 is on the same day as my english exam, but it will take priority because it's just more important. But I'll probably spend more time studying english because I barely know anything. 1018 seems quite straightforward.

That it does. Plus the lectures have been pretty interesting, so a lot of stuff is stuck in my head. Say what you want about Lesley's apparent bitchiness (the people sitting behind me in a lecture being told that they'll go crappy in the exam or something), but she gets her points across quite well. Plus they're interesting too!
I'm not sure if the hard marker/low marker thing will matter anyway. Like, they have to mark a certain percentage of papers as HD's, D's, C's and P's regardless of whether they're a hard marker or not. That's what Margarita told us anyway. I was cut at being 1 mark under distinction though.
What I found most interesting, and I'll talk to my tutor about this, is that I was told to not rely on literature so much and instead form my own opinion. It's quite hard to strike a balance I reckon.
