Student success statement

“Success is dependent on effort”

-         Sophocles, Greek dramatist

Well this statement is true because if  you don’t put enough effort into all your classes then in the next one all your grades will be failures and that is not what you want to happen you would want to put all the effort you can to succeed in every thing you can and none of this can come true if you just take some time and put some effort into whatever it is you are trying to accomplish.

1.   One example can be when I checked my grade for chemistry she told me I have an F in her class and once she did I put in so much effort to get my grade up and when I did she told me you put in so much effort to get your grade up and she told me good job.

How to take on college studying

Part 2

Choose where to study

Where you should 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 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 questions, 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 have waste time looking at material not absorbing it.

·      Get to know students whom you respect and can study with or contact to ask questions.

·      Keep up with workload and seek help when you need it.

How to take on college studying


Part 1

Develop good study habits

In college, you’ll need to build on the study skills that you have learned in high school. The demands of a college class are probably more rigorous than those you are used to.

You can succeed by knowing what to expect and how to handle it. Think of college as a full time job, in which you spend 40 hours a week on class, labs, study groups and doing homework.

Being organized and using your time well are essential. Learn more about time management, and use the guidelines below to develop your study skills.

Decide when to study

Work out about how many hours you need to study every day. Then make a schedule.

·      Figure out what blocks of time you have available throughout the day, in the evenings and on weekends.

·      Consider what time of the day you are most alert there are morning people and night owls and try to schedule your studying accordingly.

·      Think about whether you do better studying for a few hours at a time or sitting down for marathon sessions.

Student success statement

“it’s better to be alone than to be in bad company.”

Anon

Well what this means is that it is better to be by yourself than to be with a crowed that just does nothing but drugs that’s bad for you and it makes you look bad in front of people that don’t do drugs and always choose the right.

One example can be when I tried cocaine for the first time I was with a big crowed but first I was with a friend who never done such non sense and I left him alone to go and do this with a big crowed.

Refection: well this story has made me realize that there are friends that will help you even if they are on the opposite team someone will do the right thing and help. Also it has made me think about Mallory because she broke her ankle and because of that her career ended and to me that’s not right because it was her first homerun and she had messed up and two girls chose the right to help her go touch the base to finish.
