The book has 30 ways to decode student’s issues with their learning and a step by step guide to them overcome these issues. You will discover inside a ready-made series of study strategies, and engaging tools to help you plan, organize and execute effective learning.

We’ve found that there are a set of tools and strategies that keep coming up when we ask successful students what it is they do. They seem to be in control – they’re balanced, grounded and happy despite the challenges of study. These tricks and tactics are what this book is all about.
