I'm going to university in October, and I think a couple other Matazonians are too. So, if I may, I'd like to draw on the wisdom of the British 'Zonians who are at or have been to university here.
First question: how easy is it to take individual modules that aren't a part of your course? I'm doing Philosophy; say I wanted to learn Mandarin in my free time. Could I? -------------------- Every sort of expert knowledge and every inquiry, and similarly every action and undertaking, seems to seek some good. Because of that, people are right to affirm that the good is 'that which all things seek'...

I have to take all of the available modules for my main subjects (English Lit. and Philosophy) and then two other half courses - this year I did History and Film+Media Studies. Each course is work 20 points and you need 120 to get through - like Faerieryn said - but I had freedom as long as I chose two valid degree pathways (1. English Lit. 2. Philosophy)
Dunno how it'll work at your chosen Uni but I couldn't take subjects from a different faculty unless it was set-up right - I know you could take English and Maths at my uni but you couldn't take Art and English or Environmental Sciences and Philosophy... There may be faculty restrictions. Hope that helps - or at least makes sense... Ps. What Uni are you going to? Out of curiosity.
