Study Tips

  • Find a purpose for what you're doing. It's always easier to study what you're interested in and you believe is relevant and important.
  • Study during your peak hours--when you're most awake and alert.
  • Find quiet places to study, such as the library or a classroom.
  • Make an agreement with your roommates or suitemates about study rules.
  • Use your time well. Read while riding on a bus or waiting for an appointment.
  • Separate activities into small, manageable tasks.
  • Get an academic coach and talk with your professors.
  • Form a study group.
  • Review your notes after each class and review them again before your next class.
  • Complete practice tests given to you by your professors or those found in your textbooks.
  • Attend review sessions and Supplemental Instruction.
  • Reward progress: study for several hours, complete a project, and then treat yourself to a snack or a movie.
