Both were horrible

Coursework was just a rush job the night before it was in, horrible

Wish i'd done things differently

Coursework because you could go back and improve over time rather than writing in a rush.

Coursework. I'm no good at revising as it just feels like I'm doing absolutely nothing, but with coursework I can take my time to get it right and if it's bad I can improve it.

I feel exactly this, even though I do end up 'learning' a lot rather than actually 'revising' it doesnt feel like Im achieving anything (until my grades come through, if theyre good.....)

Coursework, you can go over it as much as you want and get staff to check it, takes off soo much pressure

If the coursework isn't done in the controlled assessment style then I'd take coursework. If it was controlled assessment style than I'd take an exam instead any day.

I can actually kind of enjoy coursework if we get to choose what we do it on and it's something interesting :laugh: Exams are so much more stressful, and easier to mess up, I'm a pretty slow writer as well which doesn't help
