Just some brief feedback and thoughts about the Science Experience that Garry and I attended.
The Science Experience was definitely interesting and there were challenging parts. The course was set up to be a bit of an introduction to the university experience. Each day we would engage in a series of practicals and lectures, ranging from determining the blood type of different individuals to a lecture on the mathematics behind the flight of a bullet. I would have to say my favourite parts of the course was the lecture given by Dr Helen Paterson on Forensic Psychology and a lecture presented by Dr Kendall Bailey on Forensic pathology. All the practical activities were very enjoyable including the activities run by YSA. However, some of the other lectures given, did not generate near as much interest. I believed the course was well suited to my age, there were younger participants present who handled it well. Overall I would give the course a 9.5 out of 10 only slightly brought down by the slightly more dull lectures. I would defiantly recommend it as a course to undergo.
