Academic Success Story
Part 2
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 any
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, always, 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!
