How to Take
on Collage 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.
1.
The best places to study
have good light, a comfortable temperature and enough desks space-usually your
dorm room, your apartment or the library.
2.
For completing problem
sets or brainstorming possible test questions, you may want to study with a
group or at least in a setting where fellow students are available for discussion.
3.
When you are reading book
chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably better off in a
social environment.
Improve Your Study Habits
Here are simple steps you
can take to help you get a handle on studying:
1.
Have a routine for where
and when you study.
2.
Choose reasonable and
specific goals that you can accomplish for each study session.
3.
Do things that are harder
or require more intense thought at your most productive time of the day.
4.
Take breaks if you need
them so you don’t waste time looking at material but absorbing it.
5.
Get to know students whom
you respect and can study with or contact to ask questions.
6.
Keep up with the workload
and seek help when you need it.
