In 2nd year it gets so much better.... I'm enjoying it so much more this year, there were quite a few negetives about the first year subjects. This year is better because it is graded so you actually have something to motivate you, secondly because you can pick your subjects, and thirdly because in the subjects (at least what subjects I am studying) you actually feel that you are learning stuff instead of just everyone rabbiting on with their own opinions all the time. This year is heaps better, except for the increased work load!
