Found you in the Radio Caley pic Zander :icon_mrgreen:

 

:smiley-laughing002: Creepy *.

 

Aye if you don't involve yourself then you will struggle. I mean you in the general sense, not actually you.

 

My brother was radio Caley manager a couple years back!

My new year new me plan of going to uni is not going to plan :smiley-laughing002: Just woke up now, * knows what happened to my alarm but the lecture started 50 minutes ago. Cant be arsed with the next two either now.

 

Lazy *.

I haven't had the chance to sleep in past 8 in about 3 weeks.

 

I've seen 8am like once this month.

 

This is now the third week of the new semester and from 12 lectures and 3 seminars, I have attended 0 lectures and 2 seminars.

Can't be * any more.

 

I'm required to have 80% attendence or I get chucked out.

 

Only got two 2 hour lectures per week. Went to three in September (left one halfway through as I was hungover) and haven't been since. :icon_mrgreen:

Gonna have to do a shitload this semester to catch up and hang onto a 2:1 though. Got December's exam results back today, B1 and B2 so happy with that as I thought I properly * up the second one.

 

First day back today. In a 9-11 lecture then home. Lot of *

 

I think it's something to do with me doing a Professional degree. If we dont show professionalism and decent standards then its bye bye

 

Got a ton of work for this Friday. No chance of getting it all done, I'll have to pick the most importaint bits and do those.

 

I have my first presentation tomorrow for college, has anyone got any general tips?

It's with a group and Im only expected to talk for 2 mins or so so it shouldn't be too bad but im not really used to having to do stuff like this and noticed people in here have had to do them a fair bit.

 

Try to have as much eye contact as possible with the class and don't have a completely monotone voice, maybe some hand expressions with being over the top. Nothing worse than sitting listening to someone read from a bit of paper and not looking at you.

I assume you have a powerpoint to go with it, sounds daft but keep the bulletpoints/info short and then go into more detail yourself, I've sat through presentations with people telling me what is on the screen, it's better to expand on this as it makes you look as if you know what you're talking about. Also maybe add in a picture if appropriate

 

Sound lads that's good advice

My part of the presentation is basically just 4 slides with 2/3 bullet points on each, which are about 3/4 sentences and I have about 3 or 4 points that ill be able to expand on myself. I reckon that's enough considering there's four in my group and we have 10 mins to do the presentation?

Slightly nervous for it tbh but at the same time sort of looking forward to getting a bit of experience in doing it, going to need it..
