So far enjoying the course, work load can be a bit shocking for the first year but it’s something you can easily sink into with good routine. I do however sometimes find a lot of the lectures/ seminars arnt important to attend as the information isn’t useful for the portfolio work. Lecturers are always there when you need help and most information is useful and engaging. read more
