Sarah’s Academic Success Story
Part 1
Part 1
Time management became a key factor in
my study skills for college. In high school, there were times I was able to
study for an hour or two the night before a test and get away with it. This was
not the case in college. I made sure in college I was prepared for each class.
Sometimes that meant writing out the terms for the chapter we read (even if
when it isn't required) to better understand them. That way when the
midterm or test comes around I was able to understand what I was studying. I
started taking excellent notes in class in college. I may have done this in
high school, but in college I started typing up the notes after class. This
helped me remember what I just went over in class then when I had test one week
later I was more likely to remember then as well.
My overall study method: Structured.
One thing I learned was I had to adapt or change my study method according to
the class. I couldn't study for a Religion Class the same way I
studied for a finance class. But making sure I had enough time to study for
each class-- even if it meant carrying a planner with me at all times was a big
part of my success.
Choose the Right!!
