I try to adopt different ways of learning depending on the type of material that has to be learnt. I try to develop a greater understanding of what it is i'm being taught by making extra notes if required. For exams I have to summarise the notes from lectures into a more conscise format thats easier to follow. I do have to admit however that most times I do have to resort to rote learning if I find myself running short of time!!!
Today was our first day, i've found it really interesting, a bit overwhelming, but really informative. I have met lots of nice people & think im really gonna enjoy the next 4 years!!
