  • The secrets of studying smarter (latest research)
  • Overcoming anxiety and stress
  • Getting enough sleep (the best study tool of all)
  • Setting goals
  • Dealing with procrastination
  • Ensuring good exercise and diet regimes
  • Coping with exams

Most importantly, Dr Carr-Gregg offers humorous encouragement to help maintain perspective and keep your sanity intact during this important year. With words of wisdom from parents and past students, Surviving Year 12 is a must-have for your family.
