Default Re: Is there really a lot of paperwork??

Hi,

I am almost 6 months into my first year, and yes, I have been given an awful lot of paper work from lectures, clinical skills sessions etc. I am trying to get it all in some sort of order and filed away for future reference at the moment ( should have done that from the start really)

The longest essay I have had so far is 2000 words, which sounds an awful lot, well, it did to me lol, but once you get started it isn't too bad.

There is usually a dissertation to do in your final year, and from what I have read and heard, that can vary between 6000 and 10.000 words.

Hope that helps.
