I have just purchased my 2011-2012 edition of the Palgrave Student Planner; which has become something of a ritual for me since I started university in 2005.
I can't say I have ever been excited about buying a planner until I saw the Palgrave one advertised in a student magazine. It was the design of the planner which initially attracted me to it and the designs change each year.
The planner was a real life line at university as it allowed me to keep on top of my assignment deadlines and exam dates. There is enough room to make notes for each day for anything you may have planned whether that be classes, birthdays or doctors appointments.
A 'tip of the week' is published on each page and there is all sorts of useful information compiled within the pages, much of which I never use if I'm honest but it may benefit someone.
Despite no longer being a student I still swear by this planner for organising my life and I'll continue using it for as long as it's published.
One of my class mates at law school decided to buy one after seeing me pull mine from my bag and a work colleague also complimented it recently. It looks good, it's a life saver if you have a memory like mine and it's the best on the market in my view.

I bought my first Palgrave Student Planner a year ago for my first year of university. I loved it so much, that I have bought one for this year too! This planner has everything a student needs; There are sections were you can take note of tutor contact details, landlord contact details, tips from your tutors, reading lists, library books on reserve, exam dates and assignment deadlines and record of marks. It even has a section where you can plan your revision timetable! The general timetable is also conveniently located at the back of the book so that you can see it through the plastic cover.
There are lots of tips ( time management, revision and exam tips, managing stress) , as well as quick reference lists (common spelling errors, how to use an apostrophe, weight, length and temperature conversion tables, Greek alphabet, prime numbers, Roman numerals, a multiplier table, the periodic table and keyboard shortcuts). One page I found particularly useful as a Fresher was the 'laundry symbols' page.
The diary itself has ample space to write in, however, the lines on which you write are quite narrow, so it might be a bit tricky if you have large hand writing. Each day has a place for you to write the activity (e.g. 'meeting my tutor'), the time it is occurring and where it is. Each day also has a space for you to write a 'to do today' list. There is also a 'tip of the week', which can be useful at times.
With this planner, even the most disorganised of individuals can plan their time, as is essential when completing a degree. This is not just a diary, but a book which guides you into university life, and provides you with essential information which you may not have known before.

I get this every year, it never fails me!. Excellent design. Has blue elastic to hold the pages closed. Sounds bad but honestly it does the job perfectly!. Nice red cover ( was blue last year) spicing things up i guess. 1 week to each spread with a place to write time ,activity, where and a handy to do box. Has hilarious tip of the week boxes, which honestly do come in handy. It has a bookmark which attaches to the week you are on so its easy to open, plus it doubles up as a ruler! I know..too cool for school. Also has a blank for the week number you are on in terms if uni or college. It has a 2x calendars! Event dates, bank holiday dates! A personal details page. Tutor contact page. A place for contacts as well as its own handy contacts. Loads of tips on stress, time management and revision etc. It has spelling rules, conversion rates, multiplier table, computer shortcuts, my personal favorite... laundry symbols haha. The periodic table!
Very importantly it has notes pages as well as a timetable page visible from the back , may i add. It has exam time pages, revision timetable pages.
Basically no matter how lazy you are or how unorganized you are this will whip you into shape! Its easy to carry around, easy to use and well worth every single penny you spend for it!
Bottom line: Excellent quality, excellent price, very geeky..but worth the stick. Your friends WILL be jealous!
