Sarah’s Academic Success Story
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 when it’s not 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 a 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!!!
