    It's best just to check with the institution when you arrive. My first year was 6.8% of my degree - personally I wouldn't be worrying about this now!
    Just because the first year is generally 'worth less' it doesn't mean it should be treated as such. Later years build on this and have the potential to bite you on the 'you know what' later.
    Above all don't forget to enjoy yourself though! You only get your first year at uni once...;) I'm very jealous!

    A mate of mine got a prize in his second year for beinge the "most improved student" - we used to refer to it as the "prize for being carp in your first year" :D
