It's time to say Goodbye Say goodbye to your social life, your travel plans, or even your relationships. You will literally have no time to even make food, what more to listening to your friend’s endless day-to-day dramas. You will probably only have time to call your mom every 2 or 3 days to tell her you are still alive or that you need more money because you would have spent most of your allowance on takeaways. This is because the amount of workload you will have every single week. Depending which provider, you are studying at, it varies how many subjects that would be running at the same time. On average, you would probably have at least 6 subjects running at the same time. Which means you will get at least six 30 pages briefs every single week to read, prep, understand, and memorise for. As you are aware the maximum number of people per class is 12. This means you can’t hide or slack off. Everyone has to participate all throughout the lesson. Yes, there would be weeks where you would be struggling, weeks where you really can’t be asked or bothered to do required work. It happens to all of us, but just be prepared to be shouted at and humiliated in front of your peers by your tutors. At the end of it, your tutors want what’s best for you. Sometimes they have a funny way of showing it but genuinely they do care.
