Graduates and current students have offered their top tips on surviving university – from being open-minded and joining at least one society, to mastering three simple cooking recipes.Six in ten (61%), of those who currently or formerly attended university, encouraged new students to bring along small mementos that remind them of home, to help them adjust to their new lifestyle.And the same percentage admitted they were not prepared for the rigours of university life – with their top tip being to keep a list of deadlines hung up on your wall where you are likely to see it.Other pearls of wisdom included avoiding cheap laptops, buying your own printer, choosing modules you are genuinely interested in – and avoid snogging your housemates.And budgeting carefully was also among the top 10 pieces of advice – as 79%, of the 1,000 18- to 24-year-olds polled, admitted they were shocked at how expensive it was to purchase everything they needed for their studies.To emphasise this, it emerged that more than £1,100 could be spent on textbooks alone during a three-year degree, according to digital textbook platform Kortext, which commissioned the research.But despite the significant expense, two-thirds (67%) of existing or ex-students would encourage others to go to university.A spokesman for the brand said: “Many of those starting their degree this year will be leaving home for the first time – and while undeniably fun, university can be quite overwhelming at first.“We’re seeing some alarming stats, with many students saying they don’t even know how they’re going to afford their course books.“So, we hope sharing the wisdom of those who’ve navigated university life will come in handy for new starters.“They’ve been there and know

Lewis Hamilton’s teammate, it has been claimed.Having won back-to-back F1 titles with Renault in 2005 and 2006, Alonso moved to McLaren, where he thought he would be team leader while young rookie Hamilton would be a dutiful number two. Of course, that is not how it panned as Hamilton produced arguably the greatest debut season in F1 history, winning four races and going agonisingly close to winning the title.As a result, Hamilton and Alonso feuded on and off the track with the atmosphere in the team turning increasingly toxic, to such an extent that the Spaniard left the team and returned to Renault at the end of the season.

Fascinating.
