August 2008

Welcome to August Velocity. By now you will have received your results from the May exams and will be turning your thoughts towards November. If you plan to sit, we've made some important changes to the way you enter exams - please read our article explaining these changes in more detail.

Now is also a good time to start writing your study plan. Our article 'How do I study best?' will help you focus on the things that could make all the difference come November ' including some inspiring words on the subject of motivation.

Following that theme, the August interview finds out how one determined South African student has been progressing through her exams despite suffering from arthritis.

Plus we consider how to get the perfect job - by getting into the mind of your potential employer at interview.
