This is for me a brilliant book full of useful advice - By: cuchie@dial.pipex.com, 13 Aug 2000 Phil Race seems to cover everythingin great detail at every stage of the educational process from lectures to, using the library, making notes rather than just taking them; the process of how you learn. I found it very useful. The only thing I found unrealistic was his advicein exams to spend 10 mins planning & leave 20mins for editing the answersin order to pick up even greater marks. If I could write the answers to a 2 hour examin an hour & a half I wouldn't need this book. Other than that It's packed with enormous detailin every area of the university leanring process. The opportunity to summarise the best approaches as you work through to the final action plan helps to distil the best strategies for you to get that good degree.
