How to Take on College Studying (Part 2)


How to Take on College Studying (Part 2)

Choose Where to Study :Where you should study depends on two factors: the environment in which you are best able to concentrate and the type of work you are planning to do.

ü      The best places to study have a good light, a comfortable temperature and enough desk space—usually your dorm room, your apartment or the library.

ü      For completing problem sets or brainstorming possible test questions, you may want to study with a group or at least in a setting where fellow students are available for discussion.

ü      When you are reading a book chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably better off in a less social environment.

ü      Improve Your Study Skills: here are simple steps you can take to help you get a handle on studying:

ü      Have a routine for where and when to study.

ü      Chose reasonable and specific goals that you can accomplish for each study session.

ü      Do things that are harder or require more intense thought at your most productive time of the day.

ü      Take breaks if you need them so you don’t waste time looking at material but not absorbing it.

ü      Get to know students whom you respect and can study with or contact to ask questions.

ü      Keep up with the workload and seek help when you need it.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!! J
