How to Take on College Studying.

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 time or sitting down for marathon sessions.

How I Deal with Multiple Projects/Tests: When I have more than on 

test or project, I break up my studying. I will study for one test 30 minutes or so and then switch to the other one. If there is some part of the project that I know will not take me very long, I will do it when I don’t have much time. If I am in crunch for time on a specific day, I will study for one test in the morning and the other in the afternoon or night. By breaking up the studying into different sections, I feel like I get much more done. Cram sessions do not work for me. I need to study something for a shorter period of time more often for it to sink in.
