AS and degree courses in uk

Post Reply New Topic

would be interested to know how people with AS have felt their BA degree courses have been.


i've just finished my degree (s***ing myself about what comes next!). personally i've battled mine out and mostly done my assignments on my own initiative (as i could see the support people weren't really pushing me to excel as such - rather making sure i didn't have a "meltdown" from being too stressed by everything)

specifically i'd like to know what kind of support they've been offered (if any) and whether this has been useful or not-quite-so-useful.

would be very grateful for any answers
tada

All I have heard is that the UK is quite excellent at providing support for people on the spectrum compared to other countries in Europe where this is not the standard at all.

I did a BSc. My university gave me a student advisor person who helped me organise myself, and set me extra incremental deadlines for my assignments to keep me on top of my work. I got a 2:1 in the end, and I have no doubt that if I'd not had that help I would have done significantly worse because I am a chronic procrastinator and defeatist perfectionist.
