How to Take on College Studying
Part 1
Develop Good Study Habits
In college, you’ll
need to build on the study skills that you learned in high school. The demands
of a college class are probably more rigorous than those you are used to.
You can succeed by
knowing what to expect and how to handle it.
Think of college as
a full-time job, in which you spend 40 hours a week on class, labs, study
groups, and doing homework.
Being organized and
using your time well are essential. Learn more about time management, and use
guidelines below to develop your study skills.
Decide When to Study
Work out about how
many hours you need to study every day. Then make a schedule.
-Figure out what
blocks of time you have available throughout the day, in the evenings and on
weekends.
-Consider what time
of day you are most alert – there are morning people and night owls – and try
to schedule your studying accordingly.
-Think about whether
you do better studying for a few hours at a time or sitting down for marathon
sessions.
