  7. Be conscientious – keep your resources in a central place, including assignments briefs, notes, and make sure that you proof read your work. Be punctual – attend your lessons on time and any other relevant guest speakers/trips, etc. a few minutes lost could be the difference between a Pass, Merit or a Distinction.
