George's Experience Of University

Martina:

Oh hi George, how’s it going?

George:

Hi Martina, it's going well. How about you? How's university life?

Martina:

Well it's great - apart from the studying of course.

George:

Yeah - me too! What are you studying? I seem to remember that you were going to do Art. That was your best subject, wasn't it?

Martina:

No - not really - I just liked the teacher. He was French and had an amazing accent. My favourite subject was History but I couldn't see what career that would give me.

George:

Ah, right. So what did you choose?

Martina:

Well I found it really difficult to decide. I was really good at Science but I must admit I never really enjoyed studying it. So, in the end I decided to opt for English which was my second favourite subject and I thought it would be more useful to me than studying anything else. So - that's what I'm doing. Um - how are you finding university?

George:

Well – it's a bit of a challenge I suppose.

Martina:

Are you finding it difficult?

George:

Well, some of it. I'm doing Mechanical Engineering which is really interesting but it covers quite a lot of areas like materials science, machine design, physics and of course mechanics - and they're all fine. But it's maths that I'm struggling with. It's a lot harder than it was at school.

Martina:

I can believe it. It all sounds very difficult to me. But then I never was very good at mechanical things. I suppose it must involve some practical work?

George:

Well - not at the moment. Currently, it's nearly all theory, so it's a bit heavy-going.

Martina:

I guess you need to start with that so that you can get a grasp of the concepts and learn a few facts before you start putting it into practice. It must be a lot different to the course that I'm taking.

George:

Yes - but in a few weeks we'll be having a lot more practical experience. In fact, I've got a great assignment this term working on jet engines which means I'll be going on a few field trips to a nearby airport.

Martina:

Oh - that's great. It sounds like you're going to be very busy.

George:

Yes Im’m not sure how I’m going to cope with the work. We have a lot of lectures - and that’s fine. The lecturers are very knowledgeable and I learn a lot from them. But we also have a lot of seminars and I find with so many people expressing their views it can get quite frustrating. It would be better if we didn’t have so many of those.

Martina:

Yes - It's the same for me.

Martina:

Um - how are the students at your place?

George:

Well I haven't really met anyone yet. They all seem a bit quiet.

Martina:

Perhaps they're working hard - they don't appear to be very studious here, but they are very friendly. I must say I've been doing a lot of sitting around and chatting over the last week or so.

George:

Well, that's good. The only person I've spoken to really is my tutor. He's very approachable and seems to understand how difficult it can be starting university.

Martina:

It's good to have someone you can talk to. And he may help you meet other students.

George:

Actually that doesn't bother me. I'm bound to get to know some people sooner or later. It's more a question of finding out what I need to do, where to go and so on. I hope he can help me with that.

Martina:

Oh I would have thought so. Well we certainly have a lot of work ahead of us. It seems like a long time, doesn't it - studying for three years.

George:

Yes it does - but I'm sure it'll go quickly. You know I'm really dreading the first assessments.

Martina:

Yes – for the course I'm doing we have to hand our first one in at the end of next month.

George:

Really - so have you got the topic yet?

Martina:

No - but we'll get it soon. I'm not sure how much we have to write yet – not too much, I hope!

George:

I know what you mean. And it's hard to study especially where I am now.

Martina:

Oh - where are you living?

George:

I'm living in a hall of residence. I thought that would be a good idea as there'd be a lot of people around but I'm finding it a bit noisy. I can see that I'm going to have problems when I really need to get down to some work.

Martina:

So I guess you need to be somewhere on your own then?

George:

Yes - well I do like to have some people around me, so I’d prefer to live with a family somewhere in a house not too far from the university.

Martina:

Well good luck with that.

George:

Yes thanks - and good luck to you as well. I have to dash now. I’ve another lecture in ten minutes. Buy for now.

Martina:

Bye.
