A Day In The Life Of A King's College CompSci #93 (ADITLOAKCCS)

As Salamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh World!
 
9-11am Internet Systems lecture

I know, I know. It’s been a while. In my admittedly pathetic defence, I was ill for the past couple of days (still am) and wasn’t really up for doing anything. Anyway, Today is the first day of the week before reading week which means it’s also the busiest week so far this year with all the coursework deadlines.

I actually managed to submit my INS coursework in today’s lecture which is a big weight off my shoulders. INS lectures just give the impression that the content is all memory work that can be easily memorised by rote learning or whatever works for you so there’s simply no point in starting this early.

11am-12pm Internet Systems tutorial

Unlike the lectures, the tutorial gives a completely different impression. There’s actually a numerical side to this module akin to CS1 however, it’s quite simple so there was no need to worry about not understanding the content now.

12-1pm Foundations of Computing 2 tutorial

These are by far the most useful sessions of this year. You actually feel like you’ve learnt something by the end of them. The content is getting a lot more straightforward which is reassuring since I actually thought FC2 was some insane module at the start of the year. Anyway, I guess the moral of the story here is that don’t judge a module before you complete it.

Hope this helps!
