Preparation for College

[nphelps30]

Hi there!

I was just wondering what sort of preparation you all did before you went to college? I am on the Deck (FD) course at Warsash starting in September and as I have a lot of free time at the minute, I was wondering if there was anything I could/should be doing.

Many thanks for any help.

Enjoy being the master of your own destiny for the next 2 months, I think brush up on maths is never a bad thing, but i wouldnt go nuts the lst thing you want is to be miles ahead and find the college stuff boring,

Go through the maths material when you get it and make sure you're 100% confident. If you're happy and proficient with the pre-course maths you'll fly through.

Other than that, read about the industry, about ships, shipping terms. Do some Google research. You can never read enough.

Apart from that, there's a lot that can really only be done at college so it's a case of waiting and enjoying your summer!
