'You’ll do a lot of work at uni and get very little out of it.' There’s no limit to the amount of hours you could spend honing and perfecting an essay or revising for an exam. Academic work could eat up all of your time at university – how do you know when you’ve done enough? I did my degree differently. I deprioritised and reprioritised. I planned and plotted. I put my life before my books. I tried and tested every method I could for efficient reading, writing and studying. And I’m here to help you do the same.

We’ll cover: -Working out your goals and priorities -How to focus your efforts on the things that really matter -Planning your work -Reading and writing more efficiently -The importance of looking after your body and brain This book gives you the advice I wish I had known when I was starting uni.
