Strong study skills are fundamental to success Find a few study spaces on campus that fit your needs. Take notes in a different color of pen to color code your notes for each class. As soon as you can after class, review your notes so you can fill in any gaps. Review and preview the text before class so you can anticipate questions and the information you will cover. Fall 2019

Midterm preparation Check your syllabus for information on what type of exam, assignment or project is expected for each class. Establish a study schedule for midterms. You may need to sacrifice some personal or social time in order to prepare as best you can. Create a study group with other motivated students to review information from class. Study groups and active learning can help you retain more information than if you studied on your own. Fall 2019
