Scraping through stuff without really learning. I'm in my final year of a BSc, but I also work full time so I don't have a lot of time to study. I can basically skim read the material and, idk how, but even without really knowing it I can apply it to exams/coursework etc. I will have to do serious revision in the future once I'm not working on exams, but I'm confident I'll get 85-95% without actually knowing what the hell I'm doing. Part of it is I'm able to very very quicky read and apply unfamiliar formulae, concepts, etc, so I can use the written material very effectively in open book exams. I'd probably struggle a lot in a closed book situation, but fortunately my courses are all either coursework led or open book.
