Talk:Collection (Oxford colleges)

"Undergraduates normally take two courses per term, so sit two Collections." Isn't this a bit too general? Doesn't it depend on college and subject too much to have a sweeping generalisation like this one? Not only the "two courses" bit (most, if not all, scientists don't follow this rule and the few arts students I know certainly don't). Also, I find that the number of topics I study (and others study) is not a fair reflection on how many collections people get. Some have lax tutors, and so get one (or even none!) and some have three and one take-home one (as there are only three sittings at my college). Malrase 16:47, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
