Hiya,

I started this course in September and I'm loving it so far! The course is structured well. They hold optional lecture days approx once a month and all the course notes are put onto the online 'moodle' every week. The tutors are really nice and have been really helpful. I've found the library staff to be really helpful as well. They will post books/photocopies of articles out to you at no extra cost.

You can choose how quickly you do the course. Most people on my course are doing 2 modules at a time, which I find hard work but manageable, although some people have extended the final coursework deadline on one of the modules. To give you an idea, I had an oral exam at the beginning of November where I had to give a presentation on a topic that I had researched and i've just handed in mny assignment for that module. I an working on an assignment for my second module now which is due in a few weeks.

Hope that helps

Hey,

I did my BSc (Hons) Veterinary Nursing and Practice Management at Harper Adams. I found the lecturers helpful when required but they do prefer you to try an resolve problems yourself before seeking help - apparently shows motivation and ability to think around problems is what I was told.

The resources there are very good, the library is well stocked and has a wide variety of resources. I would advice going to an open day to look around or arrange to look round with the head of the course (not sure who that is)

Good luck.

Bex
