The Experience

This revision weekend offers a full programme of nine talks, running from Friday evening (registration from 3pm; evening lecture 8pm) until Sunday tea time (3.30pm). As well as covering revision of course materials and key issues and themes, the sessions also give advice on revision techniques and how to tackle the exam, as well as providing a comprehensive set of handouts to support your own revision sessions. If you have a specific problem you would like to discuss there is also the opportunity of a one-to-one session with a ‘floating’ tutor. In addition it is a chance to meet up with other students studying your course.

Tutors on the course are all highly experienced and have included course writers and exam markers.
