I’ve read lots of things about UoP, so here’s my first notion I hear:
“There is no exams or tests”.

Would you consider a 50 multiple choice exam a test?

I’ve just had to take a test,  which tests for  inclusive language, and I will be graded on it.
I’m not going to fudge it just to test it for people like uopsucks.com, but it is a test!

Point for Phoenix, -1 for people who say there is none.

If i give up smoking will my personality change?

I hate to tell you this, but yes it will. It’s not a bad thing really, as I’ve come to find out.

Your personality will be one that is productive, and not driven by a reward that has nothing to do with what you are trying to accomplish.  You’ll have more concentration than you did before, leading to that very same productiveness.

Your new self will face adversity, instead of running from it, and you’ll be more respected by people around you that do not smoke. You’ll have more self esteem, which leads to more self worth. You’ll stop forcing yourself to always be one step away from being able to smoke.

Smokers will say you are a jerk now, mainly because you are not on the same bus to death that they are. You’ll be hated because you are no longer a smoker, and ‘better’ than they are. You’ll also have a change in behavior and you won’t want to ‘hang out’ with those that won’t return the favor of understanding you don’t want to smoke any longer.

In all, you will change when you stop smoking. Anyone who says you’ve changed for the worst are obviously not looking at the big picture, and just wish you’d start smoking again.
