I have decided to stay at uni for the moment. I spoke to my tutor for about an hour on thursday and he has give me some advice, which I have took on and nearly done my essay. I just need to shove another 400 words in tomorrow and it will be done
Cheers for the advice everyone

Well done. Don't forget to talk to others on the course. You'll all be feeling vulnerable at the moment so soon into the course.
Don't forget the marking system used. If you get the referencing at the end spot on you get 10% straight away. If it is the Harvard system (check some unis are different) this 'ready reckoner' will help produce references.

Good luck.

im doing history ... at !!!!!!! manchester lol ... the people at man met are more fun though !!!
I want to attend Man Met next year. just completed my Personal Statement and here it is:
I have always had a great passion for computing in general, as a child I remember being amazed when my primary school first installed computers, I was astounded by the intelligence of such a machine that I had never came across before I have been amazed at the progress of new technology and I believe this has enhanced my studies throughout my school days. ; Finding out how businesses were using computers to make their company more efficient was enthralling to me. I have been fascinated by how far businesses and computing has come in such a short space of time. I want to be a part of the future of business and computing and I feel that this course could provide me with the education I need to follow my aspirations. It would also allow me to get a wider and broader knowledge of business in computing. My career aims are to work as hard as possible to become a successful and accomplished businessman.
My current course (BTEC National Diploma in Computing) has allowed me to develop my skills in problem solving, research, analysis and programming to name a few. Throughout my studies I also had to work in teams with other students on a range of projects, but also work individually this provided me with tasks where I had to research and make advanced calculations as well as presentations in front of my fellow students. These activities have helped me to develop my communication skills and strengthened my ability to work with people. I am particularly looking forward to my first year while at university because I will be able to look at how to develop skills in using and building IT applications and applying them in supporting business functions which is part of the module. I am excited to do this because it is something I have never experienced before and I feel it is another reason why I want to be apart of the course.
In my spare time I work part time in a local supermarket which has helped me to develop my skills of dealing with people, categorising and displaying stock and working with others as a team.
At school I was awarded the JSLA (Junior Sports Leader Award) which was voluntary work and provided sports activities for younger children in the community. In my younger years I represented Tameside Borough Council at table tennis for over 2 years where I took part in many tournaments against different councils in England. I also like to watch my local football team where I have been a committed supporter for over 8 years. I am a keen sportsman participating in football, squash, snooker and going to the gym. I enjoy going out, socialising with different people and find it easy to make friends. I am an active, self motivated and enthusiastic student who is keen to take up the challenge of further education.
In conclusion I would like to reiterate my desire to join the degree course and feel confident in my ability to pursue any studies at a higher level.
Thoughts please.
