    Congrats, gd luck with U116, are you going to do the level 2 version of DB123, I did it its a really good course, you concentrate more on the business side of the financies, and no exams! xx

    Thank you. I would love to do the level 2 version however it's not on the module option list for my degree and I have to keep to that path at the moment as I am getting funding from the OU!

    Are you still studying?

    Dreading the thought of level 2 and exams as it is so long since I did one!

    This may sound mad but its like marmite you either hate or love it, its quite heavy going, but a good course, as you get to scratch below the surface of things and what goes on, they recommend about 12-16hrs a week, I'm finding that I'm spending about 10-12hrs a week, theres a good mix of books, cds and a dvd which you delve into through different parts of the course, I'm 2 tmas in and hitting 70+, xx

    Did you pass? I have my exam in June, our tutor haven't released a past paper as yet, so don't know what to expect!

    I Have just completed third essay for DD101. It was data, quantitative and qualitative, I found it really hard going, thought I'd be lucky to scrape a pass and got my best mark yet!

    Pressures on now though, I need to up my game to keep getting good results, I'm such a lazy student, I need a kick up the bum.
    I ave a dodgy H, so sometimes I will sound dead common, on occasion dead stupid and rarely, pig ignorant. Sometimes I may be these things, but I will always blame it on my dodgy H.

    Sorry, I'm a bit of a grumble weed today, no offence intended ... well it might be, but I'll be sorry.
