Life in school can be intense with fun filled
extracurricular clubs and leisure activities or it can be full or frustrations
and stress.
Many students who are new to college do not know what it
takes to be successful in the college environment. They understand good and bad
grades in a general way, and they sense that they should attend classes, but
that is where their knowledge begins and ends.
It is to this notion; we wrote this article. This article
will show you the secrets behind those “gurus” you have around you and their
secrets to academic success.
This secrets are;
Attendants to
Lectures
Most students filled it not important to take their lecture
serious, they miss and skip classes for one reason or another. If you want good
grades, you MUST always be in lectures to achieve the following
I.
To absorb lectures from the lecturers.
II.
To earn your attendance points.
Getting to Know You
Course Mates.
This is not for a date of future roommate, but for a source
of contact if you must unavoidably miss any lecture. This way, there is a way
to get missed note and assignments from them.
Get Organised
College can be multitasking at times, especially when you
are involved in some many activities in school. These will overwhelm you
emotionally, physically and financially, it even steals your time. You just
have to pick a few of this clubs (if possible one), get a scheduled planner,
stay current with due course calendars, always have time to finish your
assignment on time.
Get Use to Text Book
Am a victim of this, I naturally feels I don’t need any
other information beside the ones I got from lectures. This is out rightly
wrong. Some lecturers assign textbooks for a reason and it’s not to make you
broke; it to supplement the lectures and discussion from the lectures. Get your textbooks and read them.
Know your Lecturers
Every lectures have a different personality and system of
running his/her lectures, so it makes sense as early in the semester as
possible to learn what the lecturer wants from you as his students.
Time Management
Even if you do not procrastinate and you are the most
organized person in the world, time can be one of your biggest enemies in
college.
Always follow this tips
I. Tackle harder works first.
II.
Take breaks as reward for your hard work.
III.
Do not over extend yourself; when you feel tired
that should be your limit.
IV.
Work hard to play hard.
Always Take Note
During Lectures
Always attend lectures and record the notes. These notes are
vital clues to what the lecturer thinks in the most important material for you
to learn. Do not just take the note always read them (talking from experience).
Study!!!
You should spend at least three hours daily outside your
lecture time to study. Take note of the following when studying;
I.
Study early and often; breaking them into when
it suits you well.
II.
Develop and practise good study habits.
III.
Know how you study best and learn from material
(past questions)
IV.
Study with friends to gain support, but do not
turn it into a social event.
V.
Make sure work is done before socializing. Always
do you work before heading out to fun.
