Most people would have gotton an assessment task by now, or at least heard of what is coming up...

So what is everyone in for? Are they all impossibly hard, or are they OK?

I was pleasantly surprised when I began hearing about mine...So far, all of the ones I've been told about are just short essays, and all seem pretty straightforward. The hardest one I know of so far is to go to a clinic for 2 hours, observe what goes on, and write a 1000 word report on it. Finding a clinic that will let me come might be a bit tricky-but the actual assignment sounds like a piece of cake!:D A lot easier than many of the assignments I got at high school...

So far ive had a fair few.. one essay already and a group performance. Next week i have a field trip report (we've already had an excursion!) due and a piece of crafted writing for my professional writing subject... Its a lot of work for 4 weeks of uni but they havent been too hard.. just time consuming!

I have a law essay due this monday, its alright I suppose (now that I kinda get what I have to do), and its going okay, but thats cause Im fairly alright with essays.

I have already had TWO math exams! I passed so yay! (damn things only counted for something like 8% each - but if we fail one we fail the whole unit regardless of how we do in the others) then I told a guy from my class, exactly what all the questions were and how to do them and then he beat me dammit! but its all good, Ill beat him next time anyway.

Um what else do I have coming up? a few bits and pieces for business and an ongoing tut assessment. and the other assignments I haven't even bothered looking at yet, but I will once I get my first law essay out of the way.

I have shit assignments.. like re-designing the UTS architecture building and making models of it and doing site plans blah blah.. and 15 minute talks on stones in prehistoric Britain.... I'd rather be doing a course like you guys where you just have to read a bunch of crap and write an essay once in a while... okay okay that's over-simplfying it just a bit...

matrices are annoying
I cant imagine doing the harder ones in an exam...they'd take me the whole exam to do!
