I have been thinking along similar lines Simon, I keep starting units with OUA to fill out my level 1 commitment to completing a philosophy degree, but, they are boring and there is not enough philosophy. I will pick up some expensive units via other universities, so I can participate in further philosophy study, especially at the introductory end, I feel that I need more if I am to continue with post-grad studies later on.

The study patterns are a bit of a hassle, particularly as they focus only upon MQ expected outcomes. While this isn't such a bad thing, for external students interstate (I'm being selfish and thinking of myself here) when we look at Honours and Graduate study we need to take further (expensive) courses from our local institutions to fill the gaps that MQ left.
