    Any B.A International Relations students!???

    to be sent overseas you'd need language skills and so on, which are good backing for diplomacy. Edit: well obviously if you were going o/s for a gap year that would be the case but they like people with experience in relevant fields, there isn't a degree named B Diplomacy or anything like...

    Read my story?

    yeah - and some mentors can be actually counterproductive. I got some kids in my class and friends to read mine....and also guy that topped 4 u last year...and his work is very different from mine, much less personal, and so he made all these comments that sort of negated the personal touch and...

    What are you currently Reading?

    Flaubert's realism is the coolest. I love how he satirizes all the characters, especially Homais, but it's kind of despairing how he projects this...hypocritical and pompous society...that is sort of reflective of our own really. None of Emma's romanticism comes to any good. As for Flaubert...

    Yay more workplace stuff

    why Jago dear, when did you become so polite. ummm funny you should ask that, because I was just on the worksite site reading their lovely worksheet on the AIRC. My assessment was one of those exams where you can take in a sheet of notes and write an essay so I'm afraid I won't be much help...

    What are you currently Reading?

    oh, I'm the opposite, I don't ever want to touch anything written in the 19th century after this year. It's brilliant writing and all, it's just after rolling around in the same old same old concepts, marriage, social class, la di dah di dah di dah, objectification of women and whatnot, you get...

    how long should essays be??

    core takes 20% of time, national 40% and conflict 40% so, 40% of total course time. but if you squeeze things in it'll be alright, don't fret, read ahead and you'll be fine. look at some of the exam questions, the syllabus.
