Sarah’s Academic
Success Story
Part 2
My test study method: I have different strategies for
different types of tests or subjects. For me, any type of math is exceptionally
difficult so I had to spend extra time on that. I would go back through the
homework problems focusing on the problems that I had extra difficulty on. Many
times I would ask the teacher for any additional study materials they could
provide. If it was a class that required memorization or applying concepts I would
create a sort of study guide for myself many times focusing on what were key
focal points in the class. If I knew there were going to be essays I would try
to take the terms and apply them to an example or create different questions on
the concepts focused on throughout the semester.
My time management secret: I always always always carry
a planner with me. I even use different color highlighters to show what each
event on my calendar is for. For example, pink is personal, yellow is school,
orange is work, blue is for appointments, and green is for my sorority. Although
I use white- out frequently, I can see in bright yellow that if I have that
project for finance due on Tuesday, I need to start working on it on [the
previous] Wednesday so I can just get it done. My friends have always been
amazed at how early I get things accomplished but that is really all I do.
CHOOSE THE
RIGHT!!!
