You'll have a personal tutor – don't be afraid to ask for help. Get advice on how much time you should be spending studying.
You're in charge of your time outside lectures. There isn’t anyone to motivate you or direct your learning. You may not have as many essays as students on other courses, so there is no pressure to do private study. But be disciplined! It will pay off!
Your timetable may change regularly (every week for medics, often each term for other courses)
Try and get into a routine of writing up and reading your lecture notes straight away, rather than filing them away until the end of year exams. This way, you learn more as you go and won't be as panicked when you get to the exams!
See if you can look at previous exam papers so you can practice.
Try out different revision styles to see what suits you – group revision can break the boredom, flash cards and post-it notes could help you remember the key points. Your style may be different to what you did at school.
You won't be able to make as many notes as you did at school – there is so much content, it's best to annotate lecture notes.
Don't leave essays until the last minute!
