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.
·
The
best places to study have good light, a comfortable temperature and enough desk
space—usually your dorm room, your apartment or the library.
·
For
completing problem sets or brainstorming possible test questions, you may want
to study with a group or at least in a setting where follow students are
available for discussion.
·
When
you are reading book chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably
better off in a less social environment.
Improve Your Study Habits
Here are simple
steps you can take to help you get a handle on studying:
·
Have
routine for where and when you study.
·
Choose
reasonable and specific goals that you can accomplish for each study session.
·
Do
things that are harder or require more intense thought at your most productive
time of day.
·
Take
breaks if you need them so you don’t waste time looking at material but not
absorbing it.
·
Get to
know students whom you respect and can study with or contact to ask questions.
·
Keep up
with the workload and seek help when you need it
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
