I heard that these courses are very intense but how tough exactly are we talking? Are we talking non-stop study and no social life for 2 years? Any responses from past graduates would be much appreciated :)

Hi,
I actually think that he was asking about the Pre reg MSC for Physio. Weren't you?
I haven't done this programme, but have heard that it is rather intense. You go through all the Physio specific subjects, research teaching, management/ communication/ professional stuff etc. + the 1000 hrs of supervised clinical practice in a short amount of time. You will have a social life though ... probably depends on how intense you will have to study to understand the subjects. :cool:
It's doable while still maintaining your sanity!
Cheers,

Hi guys,
Thanks for your responses. I was talking about the MSc in physio, guess I forgot to mention that :-)

Its intense in that you have a lot to learn yeh, but not to the level you dont have a social life or have any time to yourself. During the university year you always have something to be done really, but sometimes you have a lot of stuff and are in the library all day every day for a few weeks at a time. When you go on placement you're working full time and may or may not have a bit of work to do some nights - depends on your supervisor!
It depends on who you are as well, some people stress about things more than others.
