New Year = New Opportunities

By Swansea University Modified on January 04, 2017

Ensure a methodical and balanced approach to succeed in your final year of high school.

As you enter a new year, think of it as a blank page in a new diary?

To enable you to get out it as much as you can, budget your time to ensure you achieve both the things you need to do and also, the things you want to do.

Apportion your time into:

  • Study time - ensure you have your exams dates as final goals and don't leave your study until last minute. Set aside time for each subject on a regular basis, always reviewing what you learned the week before so it's fresh in your mind and then build upon it with additional information.
  • Leisure time - it is important that you undertake leisure activities, so when you are studying, you have something to look forward to!
  • If you are graduating from high school this year, you may wish to seriously commence looking at university options. It will be a good idea to include international opportunities when making this decision as more and more employers are looking for potential employees with a global outlook.
  • Many UK higher education courses are shorter than in other countries. Typically, Bachelor's degrees are of a three year duration and most Master's degrees take just one year. This means you can start your career sooner, getting a head start with real professional experience.
