Sarah’s
Academic Success Story
My test study
method: I have different strategies for different types of tests or subjects.
For me, any type of math is exceptionally difficult so I had to spend extra
time on that. I would go back through the homework problems focusing on the
problems that I had extra difficulty on. Many times I would ask the teacher for
an additional study materials they could provide. If it was a class that
required memorization or applying concepts I would create a sort of study guide
for myself many times focusing on what were key focal points in the class. If I
knew there were going to be essays I would try to take the terms and apply them
to an example or create different questions on the concepts focused on
throughout the semester.
My time
management secret: I always carry a planner with me. I even use different color
highlighters to show what each event on my calendar is for. For example, pink
is personal, yellow is school, orange is work, blue is for appointments, and
green is for my sorority. Although I use white-out frequently, I can see in
bright yellow that if I have that project for finance due on Tuesday, I need to
start working on it on [the previous] Wednesday so I can just get it done. My
friends have always been amazed at how early I get things accomplished but that
is really all I do.
CHOOSE THE
RIGHT!!!
