Study Skills
Successful college students are actively involved in their learning. They plan and monitor their assignments and study time. Being a good student doesn’t happen by chance. It requires work and effort.
Good study skills increase the likelihood of being successful in college. Some of the most important study skills include:
- goal setting
- time management
- test taking strategies
- lecture note taking
- effective reading of textbooks
- improving memory
The course Guidance 87: College Study Techniques teaches study skills and how to master them.
