How to
take on college studying
Part 2
Choose
where to study
Where you
should study depends on the two factors: the environment in which you are best
able to concentrate and the types 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 problems 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 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 teach study session.
-do
things that are harder or require more intense thought at your most productive
time of 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
