Narrative:

Landed on the wrong runway due to confusion of flying first solo x-country. There were several different runways and I was told to report on base for one and I believed I had the correct runway sighted. The tower informed me after the landing. I realized that I should have checked my magnetic compass against the runway heading or asked tower for assistance.
