TOP TIPS FROM ELSOC

Here’s a refresher on some tips for the start of the new term!

1. Don’t wait until week 4 to lock in. We’ve all had the experience of having to cram for midterms because we slacked off in the first month of the term. Make your life easier by focusing up from the start!

2. Turn up to classes in person if you can. This makes you much less prone to distraction and makes it easier to get the ball rolling in the first few weeks!

3. Take some time to reflect on T1. Consider which aspects of your study and lifestyle were helpful or unhelpful to you. Try to identify a few ways you can change things to make T2 better for yourself!

4. Get involved in activities outside of your classes! Whether this be showing up to society events, working out or even picking up a new sport. Uni life is better when it isn’t totally overshadowed by study. Activities which benefit your overall health will also make studying easier, too!

OK BYE GUYS LOVE YOU

That’s all from us for this week! But stay tuned because ELSOC has a suite of great events in the works for you guys. A sneak peek of what’s to come: our annual Industry Night and Alumni Night, a cocktail party with CEVSOC and WIESOC, more Beer and Pizza Nights and frequent BBQs! Take care everyone and best wishes for the new term!
