For MSE students-join in if you are studying

Options
From my daily wanderings around MSE I’ve noticed that lots of people are studying so instead of dragging other threads off topic with exam chat I’d thought I’d start a diary for students so that we can support one another with study and exam related issues.

Part time or full time, doesn’t matter, everyone welcome :)

    I’m 32 and studying law part time while working full time, no children so in theory it should be a bit easier for me but I’m struggling to organize my time. I seem to spend a lot of time on other MSE activities like mystery shopping and surveys but I need to so that I can pay for the exams. Vicious circle that but familiar to many people on here.

    I’d really appreciate if anybody has a study timetable they could share. I’m looking for some inspiration as to where and when other people study and how they fit it around their day to day lives.

    Now off to recruit some friends from other threads ;) Back soon :)

    Hi!

    Well Im your first recruit.....

    Im 20 (youngest in year, boohoo) and am doing a joint Hons in Criminal and Community Justice and Youth Justice. Im in my final year, infact Ive pretty much finished now, just have my dissertation hand in next week and 2 exams in May. Then thats it, Im done.

    I am the most easily distracted person ever and you will always find me sat in front of a computer, normally on MSE instead of actually doing any work :o By some miricale Ive managed to do well enough in my studies to pass everything and I should leave uni with a 2.1.

    Certainly couldn't give any study advice though :p however I have become somewhat the expert in managing to live of less than £4k a year...7

    Also for extra cash during your studies sign up to https://www.gradeguru.com - upload your study notes etc and get paid for it...So far Ive made £25 out of it

    Bit late getting back to this but I have 4 chapters picked out that I'm going to get notes written for this week. Cheating slightly in that they aren't exactly the longest chapters in the book but I need a few small targets to start with.
