In this session, we will discuss how best to use the Christmas vacation to consolidate your learning, to prepare for collections, and of course to have a rest!

This session is likely to be most relevant for first-year undergraduates, but all are welcome.

This week's Fridays@2 will be a panel discussion focusing on what it is like to pursue a research degree. The panel will share their thoughts and experiences in a question-and-answer session, discussing some of the practicalities of being a postgraduate student, and where a research degree might lead afterwards.

This session will look at how you can get the most out of your lectures and tutorials. We’ll talk about how to prepare effectively, make lectures more productive, and understand what tutors expect from you during tutorials. You’ll leave with practical tips to help you study more confidently and make your learning time count.

What should you expect in intercollegiate classes?  What can you do to get the most out of them?  In this session, experienced class tutors will share their thoughts, and a current student will offer tips and advice based on their experience.

All undergraduate and masters students welcome, especially Part B and MSc students attending intercollegiate classes. (Students who attended the Part C/OMMS induction event will find significant overlap between the advice offered there and this session!)
