    Study buddies!

    A lot of courses don't have prerequisites anymore - and even if they do - you can always take a bridging course. Anyway, so is anyone actually going to meet up? I wouldn't mind going but I live in the south west, so most of you guys are too far.

    hai guyz do u think we should tattoo DFEE on fee payin students foreheads?

    Yeah, its pretty unfair - especially overseas students - they really piss me off. Anyway I dont think it would really matter if they got stamped - they're still doing the course and still will have the degree and probably will get the job they want - so even if we tattoo them it'll make no...
