I thought it'd mean I'd do 3 modules in 3rd year and 1 in fourth, but since I'm doing an extended essay dissertation in Eng Lit I won't be taking any next year. Still, it means I can go back to see all the Victorian / Modernism lectures again, I don't really trust myself to remember lectures from more than a year before the exams!

Children's Lit sounds fun but I don't think I'd have chosen a Topic Course anyway, I quite fancied the popular Victorian one but I reckon with no exams they'd be looking for a really high standard of coursework.
Thought about post-grad, but decided to go out into the big bad world instead - I miss being a student but I do think that seven years is enough...

The TCs do require quite a high standard of writing, but they are honestly much more fun than regular modules - plus they reduce the number of exams which was a godsend for me. Seven finals in 13 days was enough!

What's your dissertation topic?
