On Wednesday afternoon I received my tutor details. This was about a week earlier in the study calendar than details were released for the module I did last year, SM123. Having looked up the tutor on LinkedIn, I must admit they're not quite what I was hoping for, but I can't complain. I'm not prejudging and they might turn out to be really good. The fact that they are active on the module forums is a positive sign. I used the dummy TMA00 as a vehicle to send them an introductory letter, so I've made contact but yet to receive a reply.
I intended to go on the Open University SXR207 Physics By Experiment residential course in July 2011 but then I didn't and ended up here instead.
