Modules that I'm interested in (level ranges from vaguely to YES I WANT TO DO THIS)

It's sad that EN3225 isn't being offered this semester. D:

EN3223 - Nineteenth Century Literature & Culture (Although this involves Great Expectations and I frankly hate that book - I never finished it because it broke my 8 year old mind!)
EN3224 - The Twentieth Century
EN3227 - Romanticism

THE BEST THING IS THAT THERE ARE NO EXAMS (minus mid-term tests)!! As I've experience through this semester, I somehow completely fell apart during my exams when a timed response is required. (I did fine in semester one but that was probably a fluke. And yes, I'm still bitter that my wonderful Shakespeare essay @ntony and Cleop@tra's grades were pulled down by the exam grade. :\)

EN3224: I kind of swore of Gilbert Yeoh's classes but fuck, they're planning to do The Waste Land and Beckett and Stoppard!!! STOPPARD AND BECKETT. Oh and his module requires an examination. Which kind of puts me off. But The Waste Land and Beckett and Stoppard!!!! O:!!!!

EN3223: Aside from (gaah!) Great Expectations, we'd be most likely doing (I don't know how much the syllabus changes) Ruskin, Hardy (hurrah!), Shaw (YAY!), Tennyson, Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur (major hurrah) and apparently some Eliot. Eliot is always good. But hm. I don't know.

EN3227: The Romanticism modules mainly consists of a lot of Coleridge, Wordsworth, Shelley (!!:D), Keats, plus Frankenstein, Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights (the latter two make me er, well they give me mixed feelings). I'm looking at the very messy syllabus and I can spot out typical stuff like Ode to a Grecian Urn and Ozymandias (hahaha lulz)

I need to get my ass back in gear and back to scoring lots of As - because I know that I can do it and it makes me feel happy with myself - so any advice? Like, avoid XXXX at all costs because it seems lovely but it isn't. Any classes that I should consider (e.g. EN3266 Irish Poetry, EN3269 SEA Lit)?
