skills are lacking, that is, without trying to
micro-manage the process. First of all I would

alternating periods of large inflows targeted at

Post-Modern Victorian: A. S. Byatt's Possession If
I had read A. S. Byatt's novel Possession without

big reference back to something weve learned or
read this May term. The first few lines of chapter
one are poetry attributed to Randolph Henry Ash,

compulsory. Sports training and PE take up time
that could be better spent learning other
subjects, and PE and Sport are not as important as
other subjects like maths, science etc. It is also
