Introduction
A typical day in the life of a student will depend on the subject that you decide to study. For example, if you study a science based subject you are likely to have quite a lot of time working in labs, or in studios if you are studying art. Although you may not have many lectures you should spend time each day doing your own personal study, whether this is reading in the library or working on a essay. Don’t worry, you will still have plenty of time to socialise too.
