So what do your answers mean?!

Mostly As

The Distinction Dawg

You're here to nail those top of the class grades. You are goal focussed and looking forward to your career ahead when you graduate. But did you know that employers love to hire people with more than just top grades on their CV's? While you're at University, make the most of opportunities to gain all kinds of life experiences, from volunteering, to living independently, to joining sports and social clubs. This will also look great on your CV.

Mostly Bs

The All-Rounder

You want to do well at uni but you know how important it is to look after yourself, and this means time to relax, unwind and enjoy the uni lifestyle too. You get your work done on time (just about…) but you also want to make friends. For you, it’s all about finding a work-life balance to make sure your social life doesn't get in the way of study, but compliments it.

Mostly Cs

The Party Animal

You're here to have a great time, and you'll get around to studying... eventually! While you'll have a lot of great stories and life experiences to shape your future, it might be time to get real with yourself and ask some big questions. When it comes to exam time, are you going to end up being a bundle of stress trying to cram a semester worth of study into a week? If that rings some honesty bells, think about how you can cram in a little more study now, to save you a whole lot of stress later. Put in 2 hours on a Saturday afternoon, and you'll feel a whole lot better when you're out with your mates on Saturday night - you earned it! 

Mostly Ds

The Athlete

You're kicking goals (literally) and you’re super healthy. Good for you! Just remember to balance your commitment to exercise with studying and some healthy socialising. Life is there to be enjoyed!

A mix of As, Bs, Cs and Ds…

Congratulations! You’ve somehow managed to be a hard-working, extra-curricular smashing and extremely sociable student whilst also staying healthy in mind and body to keep up with it all. You are the holy grail of humans, and you probably lied in some of your answers…
