Full-time job + 2 Highers
Hi,
I'm looking to go back to university as a mature student, but will need to refresh my Highers to be eligible for the course.
I'm looking to study 2 Highers (Biology and Chemistry) as part of evening courses while working full time (35h/week). It's been a long time since I've studied either of them, so I've not retained much knowledge of either. Does anyone have an idea how how feasible this is, or have any advice?
Thanks!

If you’re willing to spend time in the evenings to learn - yes absolutely - just try to optimise your learning e.g try figure out how you learn the best and memorise things; myself i retain most information with flashcards
