Yeah one of those things where you have to sit in a hall for three hours and write until your hand aches. I have one today at 2:00.
Anyone around who can distract me for an hour or two? Or better still, does anyone know the answers! :P |

This one is a film studies exam. Yeah yeah I know, what can be difficult about studying film lol. But there's a lot of theories, and the history of film etc. Urgh.
Good luck with your Maths exam. Hmm they're never much fun. :s

I'm rubbish at writing a lot. I'd like to think it's quality over quantity. ;) But probably not. |

Oh here we go :P
Well I major in a Media & Cultural Studies degree. It's very academic. We don't watch TV all day lol. It's got similar qualities to English or Sociology courses for instance. Apparently this makes my course creditable and the external course-rating people marked it highly. :P
But really the negative attitude towards media courses is, ironically, hyped by the media. It's 'cos they don't like thinking that what they're doing can be analysed. It makes them uncomfortable. So they dig at it whenever they can and make everyone else think it's a waste of space too.
To be honest though, my course might as well just be called Cultural Studies anyway, we hardly seem to study the media itself much of late. The 'Film Cultures' course I take (or I guess now, took :D) is just an extra module. It's just the way the uni works - you get to choose two modules from other courses that aren't what your majoring in.
Apparently some McDonalds manager positions can make quite a lot mind you, lol. |

Lol. Well I like sociology all the same.
So what subject would you do as a degree? Or do you have one already even? |
