The Incomplete Guide to PPE Finals was born out of my friend Felix and my own Finals experience. We were frustrated that there was no comprehensive, structured knowledge base, despite ~200 students revising the same topics every year, so we set out to organize our collective notes and publish them properly.
With around 900 pages, the guide covers 50+ modules across 13 subjects with detailed summaries. It's grounded in a couple of hundred of the academic papers from the reading lists. We've included an exemplary revision timetable as well as practical tips and strategies on how to revise effectively, manage your time and approach exam questions. Initially set up as a gitbook, it is currently hosted at https://rebrand.ly/finals.
We hope this gives future students the information we couldn't find and wish we had at the time.
The guide is structured by subject and then by modules within each subject. Each module section includes:
- Summary Notes: Key points, important thinkers, and essential theories.
- Critical Papers: Summaries and key takeaways from important academic papers.
- Revision Tips: Subject-specific strategies and advice.
- Read the Overview: Start with the subject overviews to gain a broad understanding.
- Deep Dive into Modules: Focus on individual modules using the summary notes and paper insights.
- Implement the Revision Schedule: Follow the proposed schedule to cover all topics efficiently.
