MU123 TMA 04 Returned!
I haven’t posted much on here recently as I’ve had nothing that interesting to say (not saying that I say any interesting in the first place!)
I’m pleased with the score I got for TMA 04 – 85%. I found this TMA easier than TMA 03 and so I zoomed through it, to be honest, I wasn’t expecting a result like this.
I know that no one reads this blog and it’s not really intended for anyone to read, however, if you are reading this and thinking of doing an Open University degree, and you are concerned that you are not smart enough, then look at me. I did dreadfully in school and failed all of my exams because I never applied myself. Don’t get me wrong I have to work hard to understand the concepts, especially in MU123 but I can do it, also I’m now paying for it so if you’re like me then you will force your self to concentrate and do well.
Even now, when I am nearly at the end of stage one, I still think whether I am making the right decision and moving forward onto stage two, as this is when it gets much harder. I still have to do two modules concurrently which makes it hard to juggle things around and to hand in TMA’s on time, I stop and really think whether I should move on to doing the degree. I soon snap myself out of it and tell myself that I can do it. when I start my new modules in October I will soon let you know how I’m getting on! What this space.
“I know that no one reads this blog”, that’s not true, I’m reading it as I’m doing the same course, although I started later than you. Still on the first two modules. Best of luck with your studies. It’s interesting reading someone else’s experience of this course. Sounds like you’re doing well and making very good progress!
Hi Tom, thanks for the comment, I have now finished MU123 I handed my EMA in a couple of weeks ago.
Good luck with the rest your module and further studies
I’ve also been reading your blog over the last year or so!
Doing MU123 in February 2021. Really nervous about it, but you’ve given me the confidence to actually register!
I was nervous about doing MU123 as well before doing it I stayed away from mathematics, we were not the best of friends. However, the material was well written, had good examples and anything I couldn’t get my head around luckily my tutor was always on hand and helped me a lot. I did mu123 in 2017/18 and so we were having face to face tutorials – I made my tutor aware of my concerns he understood that he may have to go slow for me.
Good luck and I’m sure you’ll do great 👍
