- We had even more at MSS which is really good.» (very good)
- In my studio we had five small seminars. Much better, it makes for a better and nicer studio culture, less stress and good dialogue. Sitting in groups, working as a group, getting to know each other and each others project. Discussing architecture. Its amazing that the other teachers are so uninterested i the studio- /school culture that they haven"t figured out for themselves that this is the way to go.» (very bad)

- Good tutor, really clear.» (good)
- My supervisors where good but we (the students) got split up and some of us had to change supervisors a good amount of weeks in to the project. There was a possibility to change back but that was something we had to administrate by ourselves. That"s not the responsibility of a student, up to neck in thesis work. This pisses me off immensely and if there was ten steps below very bad on the grading scale, that"s the grade I would prefer to use. Ignorance through administration.» (very bad)

- Don"t care too much. Too little people at the exhibition... it should be in a more public place.» (bad)

20. What should be preserved for the future?

- The Matter Space Structure Studio.»
- Having several mid-crits, working in poster format, good tutors, »
- The strucure of a studio, student sitting and working together following eath others projects. »

21. What should be changed in the future?

- Everything. Especially the exhibition, the catalogue that comes with it and the vernissage. Salta pinnar and päroncider at 9 am on a wednesday morning, come on..»
- Say what is expected at each mid-crit more clearly, a little bit more focus on the report it should be used to present process. Maybe integration of inviting companies because we need to look for jobs. Stressful environment. »
- The exibition, clould it not take place in the Kårhuset and the production of the publication is of very low qualeties. »

22. What is your overall opinion of the master thesis work process?

- Uninspiring and insignificant. If it felt more inspiring and significant, the hard word would feel less hard and more worth it. I can only thank my studio friends/colleagues for making it close to inspiring.»
- Most horrible months during my life. Very stressful. Bad sound/air in working environment. Happy that it is finally over. Always not knowing if it is good enough. But after you start to forget how horrible it was.»
- Good »
