How
to Take on College Studying
Develop Good
Study Habits
In college,
you’ll need to build on the study skills that you 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
the weekends.
· Consider what
time of 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.
