Sarah’s Academic Success Story
Part 2
My test study method: I have different strategies for different types of
tests or subjects. For me, any type of math is exceptionally difficult so I had
to spend extra time on that. I would go back through the homework problems
focusing on the problems that I had extra difficult on. Many times I would ask
the teacher for any additional study materials they could provide. If it was a
class that required memorization or applying concepts I would create a sort of
study guide for myself many times focusing on what were key focal points in the
class. If I knew there were going to be essays I would try to take the terms
and apply them to an example or create different questions on the concepts
focused on throughout the semester.
My time management secret: I always always carry a planner with me. I
even use different color highlighter to show what each event on my calendar is
for. For example, pink is for personal, yellow is for school, orange is work,
blue is for appointments, and green is for my sorority. Although I use
white-out frequently, I can see in bright yellow that if I have that project
for finance due on Tuesday, I need to start working on it [the previous]
Wednesday so I can just get it done. My friends have always been amazed at how
early I get things accomplished but that is really all I do.
