My advice for making the most of university open days

University open days can be overwhelming, stressful and exciting. As soon as I started year 12, I remember ordering a bunch of university prospectuses and immediately looking up their open day dates.

But where do you begin? And how do you maximise your time while there? Here’s my guide to making the most of a university open day.
