  Feedback isn't as good as I'd like, we don't do mock exams etc. Teaching is great!

  The course has been a bit of a rollercoaster if I'm honest, last year was really good and I felt I was well supported however last semester was quite bad because the department just had so many different organisational and logistical problems leading to a bad experience for that semester. This semester has been fine so far though

  It's such a hassle looking for a suitable house and contacting the landlords and viewing it with my friends.

  It just made me slightly more stressed sometimes so it's not a big issue.
