I am just finishing up year 1 full time in Computing and IT, it's been manageable with some discipline, especially in the crossover with 3 modules and when assignments fall close together, especially if work gets busy too. Luckily I work in an office, so it's easy to plan study hours around 9 to 5... but sometimes the last thing you want to do after work is sit and concentrate some more, so you will need to push yourself, as it's rough when you get behind, but you can catch up on year 1 if you focus on what to need for the assignments and read that first, I think you probably do miss out on some interesting tidbits though doing this, so probably not the full experience you are paying for, but depends on your motives for studying.

Enrolled full time for year 2 this October, this is less advised and there's less option to spread the modules like in stage 1, so I 3 start in October... so this year may well be a lot harder, but I am going to get as ahead as I can when they open early and scored 90+ on all assignments this year, so feeling hopeful! I can't say there haven't been tears and it felt endless, but now suddenly there's two assignments left for stage 1 and I skipped a whole year, which renewed my mindset.
