    Rawrs!

    I just received an email from the admin department of my university saying this..

    Thing is though, the day I received that letter the email just talked about, I went to see him first thing on a Thursday when I had him for a tutorial for one of my modules. After that class, I was the first to do it and even my friend remembers that I did it before her and she hasn't got an email about this. WTF like!?

    Not only is this so called progress tutor is useless, he's lazy and selfish. I mean people that asks for help for an assignment, he will not give one to one advice. Also as I'm transferring universities, I had to ask for a reference. I asked him and he said it was "an indemnity to the University" for him to do so. I'm like WTF? Luckily my referee for work experience applications and is also my Contract lecturer was willingly to help me as she knows me for the two years that she has taught me so far in the uni.

    I'm just really hacked off with people like this. These forms I have to do was to ensure me that none of this would happen. Now I have to wait till tomorrow to call up the department to confirm my email so that I don't get kicked off the course. Stupid bastards
     
  2. Maybe he is just tired and fed-up waiting for retirement, it happens at a lot at uni's, tutors just do what they are legally required to do, extra help is their choice. Thats why uni is so different from college where you get help from lecturers.

    I highly doubt he's gonna retire soon!
    All my other lecturers are willing to help, just him!
    Even the lecturers who doesn't teach me still helps.

    Bah, I'm soo happy I'm transferring. But then I have to go through the hassle of phoning the uni tomorrow >.< ARGH!!

    Nah I'm in my 2nd year so I'm gonna do my final year back at home since it's less hassle when I do finish uni and the fact that when I do my PhD it is closer to home since I'm deciding to do that at the uni I'm applying to now or somewhere in LDN

    I'm a 2nd year undergraduate... My course is 3 years and I'm planning to finish this course (i.e. my final year) back at home where the university I want to do my PhD in :p
    coz currently I'm in Wales which is the other side of Britain.. Coz my home is at the east side of England and Wales is at the West of hte British Isle

    The British university basically have foundation courses that can get you to do your undergraduate courses.. then once you are graduated with a degree you can do a PhD
