Academic success story
In high school I was one of the good students who didn’t really have to study to be a good student. The information that I took for notes in class usually sunk in enough for me to be able to get by on the test by simply reviewing the materials just before the class began. I wasn’t that I didn’t try, I had a 4.0 all throughout high school, but I never really had to put forth much of an effort to get the results that I wanted to see. In college however, that changed. Not only did I start studying and reading the book, but I began to understand that the little tiny facts were just as important as the general concept.

My overall
study method: I do the reading that is required for the classes, and I try to
keep up. If I do fall behind, I usually use that reading that I did not get to
as an additional study aid. I take good
notes in class and actually attend every class that I can. Sometimes, with volleyball,
its tough because we are on the road a lot, but if I do miss class because of volleyball
I make sure that I get that notes from another student in the class. Also, for
a subject such as chemistry, I do practice problems…
Choose the Right!!!
