The Final Coursework

Well, well! It has come to this. I can vividly remember during the orientation process the Head of school and employment law LLM course director Gareth Thomas telling us that we had no exams but rather would proceed through assessed coursework. We had to undertake 3 courses during the year and write 6 pieces of coursework, with a 5,000 word limit on each over a 10 month period (2 for each course). I was happy to a point about this because I am not a great fan of exams. But as time went on I realised that maybe exams were not so bad after all. When you have to do papers there is so much more that is expected and the research aspect is very rigorous; hours and hours of reading and distilling thoughts. You may read a 30 page article and only get 1 point... but alas, that is the way it goes. For me, submission of the final coursework was delayed as I was afforded an extension since I trekked home. So it had to go in on the 16th July by 3p.m. Can I tell you that it seems this was the hardest one? But then again each one seemed harder than the previous one. I was up all night... and even until 10 am on the day I was still not done. But I finally got it! I know that the hand of God was there typing away with me because of my own strength I would have most surely failed. Thanks especially to Paul and Timmy for thier prayers and support. All that is now over and the great challenge is firmly on the path before me... the 15,000 word dissertation then it will be all over. That is due for submission in September. Will keep you posted!!!
