Knowing how to play the game at school and university allows you to achieve exam success while having more fun than you might have imagined possible.
Drawing on the experience of twenty Oxford graduates, Study Skills Essentials gives an extremely useful insight into the study and exam techniques that work in the real world.
With the right tactics it is very possible to get excellent results while still actually having a life.
This book will be amazingly useful for students at university and in the later years of school.
