Sarah’s Academic Success Story

Part 1

Time management became key factor in my skills in college. In high school, there were times I was able to study for an hour or two the night before a test and get away with it. This was not the case in college. I made sure in college I was prepared for each class. Sometimes that meant writing out the terms for the chapter we read (even if when it wasn’t required) to better understand them. That way when the midterm or test comes along I was able to understand what I was studying. Study I started taking excellent notes in class in college. I may have done this in high school, but in college I started typing up the notes after class. this helped me remember what I just gone over in class then when I had a test one week later I was more likely to remember then as well.

My overall study method: Structured. One thing that I learned was I had to adapt or change my study method according to the class. I couldn’t study for a religion class the same way I studied for each class even if it meant carrying a planner with me at all times was a big part of my success.
