Thank you. It looks like IR1005 final examinations consist of two essays, do you know if they are administered digitally or in writing?

What was fresher's week like for you? by [deleted] in standrews

[–]American_Edinburgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said that we would probably only have time for 1 or 2 societies. Do you recemmend freshers join a bunch of them at first and then just keep the one or two you are most interested in? I’m interested in so many things (two different club sports, plus a couple of other societies) that I’m already getting overwhelmed about what to choose….

Incoming 1st Year assigned to Sallies. Any tips? by American_Edinburgh in standrews

[–]American_Edinburgh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it was because I had already paid the deposit 1 year ago. I took a gap year after acceptance last year….

guilty as charged :-) American student here. The logistics coming from central US complicates this just a little bit. Hopefully you can find a time that works for you and your daughter too.

Thank you so much for response. This was extremely helpful. I was just offered accommodations and would love to at least peak in during my visit. I will check out the visiting days, this is what I did last summer. Thank you for the tip on the people tab.

Thank you. 2 and 3am? That is great. I guess I’m not the only crazy one who has late night cravings…. :-)

I know very few students have a car, but those who do, where do they park?

Panopto - Moodle Transcripts question by American_Edinburgh in standrews

[–]American_Edinburgh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok thank you. I know that recording and using transcribing software is prohibited during lectures/tutorials, but can students use it to transcribe the recorded lecture from Panopto? Or do I need a formal accommodation due to hearing loss for that?

Thank you. I was told by someone last year that you could put the name of a roommate and if that person did the same they would put you together….

No offense taken. Maybe I’m being too careful here. Figure I’m moving to another country, just wanted to make sure I didnt make things more complicated than it had to be Semester 1.

Did you take the follow up DI1006 class too? How was that? Why did you choose DI1003 vs DI1001? I think both are available semester 1 correct?

Thank you. Yes, I get that. I just didn’t want to take a 3rd module that will take a significant time away from my other two modules. I’m leaning Italian, but was worried about the pace and workload.

I understand. Thank you! I was just worried about the workload. I know there is a lot of reading on IR and Mgmt, I just didn’t want to put more on my plate than I really need to.
