How to Take on College Studying

Do the Reading

You need to do more than just read the chapters you are assigned – you’re expected to understand them thoroughly. Here are some tips:

·     Don’t skim. Read all the material carefully.

·     Break up difficult assignments into sections you can digest – chapters, subsections or even paragraphs.

·     Look up any words that you don’t understand.

·     Pause to think about whether you understand the material; ask questions in class about anything that is unclear.

·     Take notes instead of highlighting – this makes you think through and rephrase the key points.

·     Create a summary sheet of what you learned from each assignment you read.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
