Sweet revision time

Just found this thread, and I think I can top just about all of you .

This year is my fourth and final at uni, fairly important as if I fail any one module I fail my degree, no resits, no second chances, muck up here and its the last four years down the pan . 

So you will understand that I was a little miffed when half way through last term I was told that was not allowed to do one of my modules (it was mutually exclusive with another module I had done before christmas).  Now normally these things are explained in the documentation handed out at the start of the year but this particular 'clash' had been missed out so I had no way of knowing I was not meant to pick this combination.  The result of this was that I now had to find a new module to do, thing was that there were no other modules left with the same weighting that I could do this semester. 

So now I'm doing one that is worth twice as many credits and my final mark will be averaged from a larger comined score.  This was ok (save for the fact that this was only decided a week before the easter break so I could only phisically go to a third of the lectures),  untill I discovered that the exam for this new module was at the same time as the exam for another of my modules.  And that according to the university computer system I had never been rgistered on either the module I was not allowed to do or the new one I now have to do (which was strange as I have written confirmation of my registration on both modules). 

So I have spent the last week running around after various bits of central university administration trying to sort this out, while also trying to help write a 300 page report on the design of a marine research vessel I've been helping design.  Oh, and I've got to find a job for when I finish here in a month and a half. 

All I can say is that I am soooo glad that the wednesday night series at south shields starts tomorrow and I can get my sailing fix twice a week.  The drinks at the end of all of this will be so sweet, that is the only thing keeping me going at the moment. 

Good luck to everyone in exam hell now, remember, no matter how bad things are, there is always someone worse off than you!

P.S. if anyone is any good at finite element analysis and grillage problems please help, please, I don't have a clue, help me!!!!!!!
