    Evening all!

    So I’m working my way through the BT module now, I wanted to pick everyones brain about the most optimal study method — i’m in my early 30’s so time isn’t really on my side so I want to make sure I’m doing everything the best possible way the first time round.

    At the moment I’m watching the Opentuition lectures whilst simulaneously reading the corresponding chapter in the lecture notes. Whilst I’m doing this I’m writing down breif summaries of the most important parts in a separate pad of paper. I’ve also ordered the BPP practice and revision kit which I’ll integrate into my process as soon as it’s delivered.

    One thing I’ve also noticed in the most recent chapter (Chapter 5 — Corporate governance and ethical considerations) is that the Opentuition lecture doesn’t match whats in the lecture notes and misses quite a bit of info out. Is it worth continuing watching the lectures or should I just read through the lecture notes and use the revision kits?

    It would be great to hear everyones feedback and how they do things differently/more optimally.

    Thanks!

    We always advise to both read the notes and listen to the lectures. They are rarely carbon copies of one another. For example, some details are best presented in the notes than in a lecture. Alternatively, sometimes notes are amplified by examples given in lectures.
