Academic Success

Part 2

Laura B.’s Academic Success story

In high school I was one of the good students who didn't really have to study to be a good student. The information that I took on note usually sunk enough for me to be able to get by on the test by simply reviewing the material just before the class began. It wasn't that I didn't try, I had a 4.0 all throughout high school, but I never really had to put forth much of an effort to get the results that I wanted to see. In college however, that changed. Not only did I start studying and reading the book, but I began to understand that the little tiny facts were just as important as the general concept. My overall study method: I do the reading that is required for the classes, and I try to keep up. If I do fall behind, I usually use the reading I did not get to as an additional study aid. I take good notes in class an actually attend every class that I can sometimes, with volleyball, it’s tough because we are on the road a lot, but if I do miss class because of volleyball I make sure that I get the notes from another student in class. Also, for a subject such as chemistry, I can do practice problems to help me understand what the material means
