Bucknall�� (Student; later a Software engineer and Linux/Unix system administrator) "This book is obviously for someone planning to study or already studying at university. Some of the chapters deal with preparing for university life but the majority will be of interest to every one...this book is easy to read, to the point and easy to dip into." (Sheffield Hallam University) HOW TO SUCCEED AS A STUDENT "Written by Kevin Bucknall, really interesting ...take a look." (Dr Clive Buckley, North East Wales Institute) ��Kevin Bucknall's How to Succeed as a Student is very helpful for college life, though not as helpful as its unpublished counterpart ��How to Succeed as a Student With as Little Vivarin, Aspirin, Vomiting, and Stress-Related Blindness as Possible.���� (GettingReal.com) "Excellent book by Kevin Bucknall". (Dr. Donald Simanek, Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania) "Written for students. One of my personal favorites!"
