Hey just wanted to know how is Durham University for MSc in Business Analytics for Sept Intake 2024 and what are the advantages compared to other universities
Hey, I'm not too sure as I study anthropology. I would look at rankings, employment rates post-grad, and student satisfaction. One caveat to this is remembering that last year, there were lots of prof strikes, and some of the retribution by students was to leave really bad reviews, so I would take a lot of the low reviews with a grain of salt.
hey, congratulations! I mean sucks you didn't get into your first choice, but you got into the second! I'm starting my masters in September in Edinburgh, so I'll be a little up north from Durham! Have a great week, Syd, and good luck with your dissertation!
thanks so much! so excited for you!
Durham natsci offer holder here!! I think I'm going to insure durham as I got a really good contextual offer :) Do you know how balanced the workload is across subjects at durham? Sort of weird question but I know at places like warwick the maths students end up having a lot more work than the humanities students and as someone wanting to do maths and philosophy through natural sciences I don't know if there would be any difference between workloads. Sort of a long winded question but I hope it makes sense, I'm glad to hear you have more free time this term!!
ooooh i love this question! i’ve been talking a lot about this with my more STEM friends lately
OMGG I LOVED UR RANKINGS AND CAN U PLS DO A RANKING ON THE NIGHT CIRCUS BY ERIN MORGENSTERN IFU HAVENT DONE IT ALR ! ALSO U LOOK SO PRETTY OMG 💗🎀
omg you’re so sweet!!! i’ll definitely check it out xoxoxo
U sooo pretty Syd!!! also you should read the Poppy War if you haven't already also very much enjoyed le vid and your rankings, can't wait for le next 🫶🏼
miss you so much omg <3333 i listened to the audiobook in the summer of 2021 and have wanted to get back to the series tbh! i so glad you enjoyed, cant wait to see you this summer for our annual boston pizza gossip session!
Hiya, I have an offer for the anthropology bsc at durham and I was just wondering how much biology is involved/ how sciency the course is? I was struggling to pick between bio and anth so was hoping there is some bio in the course haha
hey!! it’s fairly scientific without being bogged down in too many details if that makes sense. like you’ll learn a lot about evolution, human reproduction, skeletal morphology, but not at the cellular level of that makes sense? 🫶🏻
@@sydewing Perfect, thank you so much 🫶🫶
you are a god send for this video
oh hahaha thanks! i’m thinking of doing another video answering people’s questions abt durham, do you have any you’d like me to do?
@@sydewing amazing! can you talk a bit about what public transport is like/ how accessible durham is for people that don’t drive
@alicedunne6419 oooooh love those! defo will answer
I love these kinds of videos! I find them very useful. I'm going back to uni after several years of working and not doing academic work and I feel a bit rusty and anxious about not being able to keep up, so these tips on how to approach your course work are very much appreciated. Thank you! Oh and the sandcastle analogy totally made sense!
aw yay! i’m so glad these help. you’re gonna smash it in uni!
hahah and i’m glad the analogy made sense lol
why didn't you just open the bottle in the sink lollll you opened it like it was new yearssss
…that would’ve been smarter yes
your sandcastle analogy absolutely made sense syd! love your video as ever :))

Heya, South student here! the ensuites are flats on top of each other like you said, but townhouses are a whole like column of building per flat. Each floor has 4 rooms and 2 bathrooms and the kitchen on the bottom floor which you share with all 12 people in your building. Hope this made sense!
ohhhh ok, so all the ensuites are organized into townhouses? or are they two separate ways that people live?
Hi syd. good video. how are you? xxx

Hii. Weird question but I'm gonna hopefully be moving into Durham in a few weeks and had a qs about the exam structure for courses. I've heard of formative & summative assignments and know that the latter contribute to your grade while the former don't, but I'm wondering where the end of year exams come into the picture then? Do the exams in the summer combine with summative assignments to make your grade in each module, or is there some other system? I just can't get my head around the assessment system so was hoping for some clarity if possible? Thanks!
hey, it's totally not a weird question. exams are a form summatives can take. it depends on the module, but some will have essay-style summatives, while others will have exams. i've even had a few classes where we've had exams and summatives to make up our final mark! hope that makes sense xx
@@sydewing Thank youu! That explains it. So just one last qs, if you're in a course with summatives and/or a mix of exams and summatives, would the summatives be done throughout the year and then the exams during the summer, or are all summatives, exams etc usually conducted during the 'summer exam period'?
you're so welcome! for undergrad students, exams usually fall in the spring-summer (like april-june) so you have grades back to know whether you're progressing to the next year/graduating. in my experience, essay summatives are usually handed in in january and april (but this really depends on the course as well). you can also do resits for exams and rewrite assignments if you've really not done well, and these are usually done in july/august.
@@sydewing thank youu! You’re a lifesaver :))
i gotchu, no worries xx
Hey! I had to defer my masters for a year, so this is getting bookmarked for when a do start packing. I didn't get where you bought the cable thing, where was it? Take care x.
