Engineering Student Resources

Post

Many Forum Members attend University. This thread is a series of links to aid them in their studies. Many threads on the Forum concern specific information and subjects. List questions here.

STUDY GUIDES - Why don't they teach a course on how to be a University Student? Is there a book called How to Attend University and Leave With a Degree? The first 2 study guides literally teach you how to be a student :shock:

Thanks guys, these are very interesting. Does anyone have anything on maths? I'm struggling with quadratics at the moment and I'm sure it will only get harder.

The real problem of getting a Degree may be Learning How to go to School. How to be a University Student. I've put a couple of study guides on the opening post above.The first 2 are the best overall. These study guides will help :wink: EDITED

The first one is so good they printed it in 33 Languages :!: :idea: :!:
