Let's talk about the elephant in the room
However, the institution keep on increasing the quota of student intake each year without thinking of improving the learning resources. By giving the busy tutors more jobs, meetings and admin stuffs, which is taking away their time and energy for fruitful one-to-one discussion with graduating students and follow up the discussions with further research findings. There is often occasions that tutors favour certain students than others. This is a understandable circumstance: the tutors have to channel their energy to deal with other arduous tasks set by their employer, and they want to avoid other stressful matters that can prevail from students who have 'unique needs'.
The result is totally precedented: a lot of pessimistic view arising from the people in my year about the course and concerns about their future.
This is even more frustrating for myself, which has 'unique needs' for being an international student who wants to stay in the UK after graduating. I have decided that have no faith on the tutors after not getting enough time for discussion and the long overdue pastoral tutorial follow-ups. I have to find my own solution on top of already being pressured by the stakes for me to get a professional job by the end of July.
