The Oxbridge system relies heavily on lectures to set the scene for the group supervisions though. You only get one or two hours of small group tuition per week per topic, so you need to make the most of it. The system generally goes: go to lectures to be introduced to the core concepts in play, have a sheet of 10-20 example questions to work on per week, bring as much of the questions as you can do to your supervision and go through the correct forms. In between we generally worked in peer groups to make sure we had enough to bring to the supervisions in the first place.
