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