OU students - do you study one course at a time or.............

[Thunderpants]

have you done two? I'm not sure whether to overlap an October 2007 start with a course starting in Feb 08, or whether to do 2 courses concurrently from Octobe 08. What do you think, or what is your experience? BTW they'd be in English Lit and English language, so not too similar. thanks.

I did two concurrently last year - one 30 points and one 60. That was enough for me. I'm back to 60 points this year. I don't work, but do have a child still at home. My friend did two 60 pointers concurrently and found it tough. I think it depends on how organised you are and how much time you have to devote to it really.

thanks tellus. I think that as I do a bit of work from home that probably 2 60 pointers would be too much in one go. the thought of two lots of revision makes my head spin tbh! think I'll probably overlap them oct/feb.
