Student review [#79553] for Dietetics
at University of the Western Cape - UWC

In highschool, I graduated as the class of 2020. The pandemic became a big part of my student life as it impacted everything from classes, graduation, the entire school environment. As a first year student, the university made arrangements for online learning, but then we abruptly switched to in person “normal” learning randomly mid semester after covid rates went down. My entire class failed, only 3 students make it to the next level. I did not like the fact that we didn’t have a chance to be slowly taken back to “normalcy”, they just randomly decided and sent everyone emails that we’re gonna have exams in person, after having the entire semester online?? Everyone panicked. But anyway I bounced back, I was able to make friends and I got to learn more about myself in that period, guess I could say it was a blessing in disguise. I got to redo my second year in a way that I had always imagined it, attending classes, working on group projects with other students, experiencing university as a whole and seeing other students on campus all dressed up, late for class, leaving assignment submissions to the last minute, discovering coffee shops on campus and finding our favourite one. I will always cherish the memories I made and the ones I’m still going to make.
