For the first time a Bachelor Degree graduate with a First Class Honours
pass shares knowledge and experience with the student community in an
effort to help more students graduate with First Class Honours, and raise
the awareness of degree education. This book examines the mindset of a
First Class student and highlights the strategies and techniques the author
used to gain his First Class Honours degree. It will also inspire you to
reach for new highs in your degree course and beyond.
The student is guided in the process of producing outstanding coursework
assessments using real assessment examples (many of which were marked
in excess of 70%) which are accessed via the 1stAcademy website. All
aspects are covered: essays, reports, preparing presentations, final projects,
and exam revision techniques that work, even under exam pressure.
The focus is to maintain consistency of marks throughout the degree
course. Consistency in marks allows for a 'balance out' effect allowing the
student latitude with weaker subjects. As the author says: "It is not ability
alone that determines your graduation grade, organisation and applied
effort are of equal importance.
