Anna Mafia: Yes, more or less, but I'm not sure whether to do biological sciences or German. Tutor: Well, that's quite a difference. You want to do computer studies, don't you? Anna Maria: Mmmmm, yeh. Tutor: Well, let's see-you elected to do physical sciences, basic electronics, art and design CAD-that computers and design-isn't it? Anna Maria: Computer-aided design actually, "CAD", but... Tutor: Oh, right-anyway, CAD and..., and English. That's quite a range. Don't you want to do maths-or computer programming, for example? Why don't you choose to do art and design? Anna Maria: Well, I'm interested in electronics-in computer-especially in writing computer games. I'd like to produce educational software, educational games, eventually. I've taught myself a lot of programming- I... I don't think I'd benefit much from a foundation level course.

Tutor: And the art and design? Anna Maria: That will be good for my graphics-I need that to produce games-CAD too-I've never done CAD before. Tutor: No-right-they've got some powerful packages in the computer graphics and CAD offices-you'll enjoy that. So... that leaves English. It's mostly English lit. I know your English is very good, but did you know you can take English as a foreign language as one of the modules in the foundation year? Anna Maria: No... no, I didn't. That's great - if they've got classes at my level. I don't have any problem speaking-but my writing is terrible. Tutor: Oh, I'm sure they have-go and talk to them in the EAP department-oh, and I suggest you join the study-skill classes, too. They will have sessions on report and so on.

I gave up biology at school to do physical-but I much prefer biology -I'd like to study some more While I can but German is very important in technical subjects, so I want to do that too. Tutor: Well, you could do it as an option next year-you do know that? Anna Maria: No, I don't-I mean, I didn't cheek. Tutor: Yes... yes, I think that's the thing to do-concentrate on your English this year you could take Cambridge proficiency-and you'll need LELTS for the first year of the degree -start the German next year. Anna Maria: Right-that sounds good. Tutor: Good. Well, if you have any problems academic or otherwise, just come and see me. Anna Maria: OK, thanks. Tutor: I am on extension 7549. Anna Maria: 7549.
