FINAL-YEAR STUDENT: Study advice to new students

This video clip is for prospective and new students - produced by The Study Advice Service at The University of Hull [www.hull.ac.uk/studyadvice]. It forms part of a series included on a PowerPoint presentation entitled: STUDY TOOLBOX: Do you Know How to Study at University Level? [this work is still in progress]. Peter Thompson is a final-year Politics student who is keen to share his vitality and experience of adapting to life as a student. He urges new students to strike the right balance between social and academic life with an emphasis on the latter.

Dear Aaron,

As you say, it is your future. The only non-academic advice I can give you is: follow your heart. Then you will be highly motivated tpo succeed, even when you might feel down.

Enjoy life and life will be good to you.

Alec Gill.
