    What is that like? - the work I mean...[/quote]

    Usually a couple of hour long lectures in the morning. 6 hours of lab time a week (two 3 hour sessions), 3 hours of tutorials in which you get grilled on the lecture stuff, 1 hour philosophy lectures (I chose to do it), 1.5 hours maths lab a week.

    Tomorrow I've got a 10am lecture on "chemical equilibria and thermodynamics" then 11am "atomic structure" which is basically quantum theory. Then I'll spend my afternoon writing a lab report from last friday....

    I like it :) especially the labs. In my fourth year I'll be doing my own research. philosophy keeps me on my toes mentally as well, you have to think in a different way. I did it at A level so I've got an advantage over everyone else :)[/quote]

    I'm a fourth year chemistry student. It's good. Intelectually stimulating etc. but It'd definitely not what I want to do as a career. Currently on a 1 year work placement and have decided to go back to uni when I graduate to study medicine.

    Hope chemistry's working out for you eeehhhh[/quote]

    Hmm that's interesting, there seems to be a lot of freshers on my course who want to do medicine as well, but they're not allowed to transfer - only biochemists are. They say they'll just stick it out for the next 3 years (no way could I do that).
