1. The Learn-It-Once Approach. Spend your time


learning things as they come up in your courses.
2. Morning Review. Wake up a half hour earlier and
spend that time reading from your textbook.
3. Use 30-Day Trials. Trial periods work under the
principle that by committing to a change for a
month, it will become a habit.
4. Link Courses to Daily Life. Spend some time each
week looking for practical ways you can use the
information you are learning.
5. Background Reading. Invest some of your time
each week in reading the background of the ideas
surrounding your subjects.
6. Set Daily Study Times. Set periods of time that
you will spend studying each day.
7. Cut Wasted Time. Decide where to cut time if you
have to.
8. Focus on Learning, Not Grades. Look for ways you
can use the material you are learning and focus on
understanding it first, put grades afterwards.
9. Read Papers Upside Down. A good editing habit
when checking over your essays and assignments is
to read them upside down.
10. The 10-Year Old Rule. Pretend you had to teach
everything in your course to a ten-year old. Could
you do it?
11. Seek Your Professors. Recommends meeting your
professor during office hours and asking for
suggestions for improvement.
12. Schedule a Balance. Compress your work and
studying into the weekdays and mornings so you
dont need to work all of the time.
13. Use Note Cards. Note cards allow you to study
whenever you have a free moment.
14. Dont Procrastinate. Most students procrastinate
on huge projects or tests because it seems like it
will take a long time to finish.
15. Reward Yourself. Plan on rewarding yourself
after spending time studying.

16. Study Groups. Time spent in a study group can
really help make studying more enjoyable and more
effective. 1
17. Take Breaks. Take breaks regularly to relax your
mind.
18. Utilize the SQ4R Method.
S=Survey
Q=Question
R=Read.
R=Recite
