Undergraduates, what’s the workload like on your course this summer term? Do you have essays, exams and tutorials – or nothing to do at all?

Summer term workloads differ hugely between courses. Some have contact hours closer to a nine-to-five working day on top of research and coursework. Others have just a few hours of study and contact time. A few have absolutely nothing to do at all.

We want to hear about your workload this summer term. How many contact hours do you have each week and how much other work are you expected to complete? How does it differ from the last two terms?
