viva and collections

Hi,

I had my project viva today - a 5 min presentation and then 10 min of questioning by a couple of examiners. It went pretty well - the questions they asked were all directly relevent to my project and therefore not to hard to answer since I've been researching and working on it for nearly a year.

My paper 3 (critical analysis) collection on Friday was also ok - I ran out of time a bit but the whole point of the collection was to work out how long the questions take so that's not a problem. I'll get the results for that tomorrow and I'm hoping to do another practice paper 3 each week until the exams, which will give plenty of chances to perfect the timing. The complexity of the article we're given to analyse makes all the difference on how hard that paper is.

The paper 1 collection I had on Saturday wasn't so useful becuase my tutor left out half the question paper by mistake so I could only answer one question. I'm going to do the rest of it tomorrow morning!

Now that the viva is over I just have revision to do. As well as meeting a tutor to get collection results back tomorrow I'm also seeing another one to arrange paper 2 (synoptic) revision tutorials as revising for that paper is more difficult and different to anything we've done before.
