Should I attend Lectures?

YES! Definitely, attending a lecture will benefit you somehow, although the extent of benefit varies according to lecturer, subject, your will to concentrate, etc.

Rules to follow :

Attend all Physiology lectures.

If you plan to drop a lecture, make sure you keep updated about the content of it. We used to make a nice procedure : each lecture that our group doesn't attend, we would send a different embassador to sit, write and concentrate in the lecture to tell us what happened.

If you want to concentrate, sit away from your friends.

Do not attend with your girl/boyfriend.

Do not enter a lecture late, as you won't follow easily

If you don't want to attend a lecture : what about sitting in the lecture-room and, say, draw that delayed histology diagrams in your histology copybook?

Do not write a lot.

If you bring your walkman with you, don't take cassettes of songs, etc.

You can sleep if you're bored, but don't go out.

Don't take private lessons, or you won't have time to attend lectures.

Try making a relationship with your lecturer by writing some questions on a piece of paper and giving it to him before the lecture. You'll concentrate to hear the answers.

CONCENTRATE!
