    returning to third year after a gap year, bit rusty!
    I had to take a year off due to my family's financial circumstances. At first I thought I will study daily after work, but working full time and overtime (when possible) was extremely tiring and I had no energy left to study at all, and now in two months I am going back to my third year of maths, I just resigned from work to revise but I cant even understand my first year notes:eek:, HOw do I revise and prepare for my final year. Some tips and help would be great!!

    There's not a lot can you do but work hard!

    - If you have lecture notes or recordings then go back over them, hopefully it'll ring a few bells.

    - If you're really stuck get a tutor to help refresh your memory. Seeing you've done it all before you shouldn't find it too hard to catch up.

    Good luck
