Laura B.’s Academic Success Story
In high school I was one of the good students who didn’t really have to study to be a good student. The information that I took for notes in class usually sunk in enough for me to be able to get by on the tests by simply reviewing the material just before the class began. It wasn’t that I didn’t try, I had a 4.0 all through out high school, but I never really had to put forth much of an effort to get the results that I wanted to see. In college however, that changed. Not only did I start studying and reading the book, but I began to understand that the little tiny facts were just as important as the general concepts. My overall study method: I do the reading that is required for the classes, and I try to keep up. If I do fall behind, I usually use the reading that I did not get to as an additional study aid. I take good notes in class and actually attend every class that I can. Sometimes, with volleyball, it’s tough because we are on the road a lot, but if I do miss class because of volleyball I make sure that I get the notes from another student in the class. Also, for a subject such as chemistry, I do practice problems to help me understand what the material means.

Student success statement




Student success statement
“Light and darkness can’t occupy the same space at the same time. CTR is light-CTW is darkness.” Call Haymore

There is only one option, being good or being bad, if you try to do both you will fail. There is no in-between.

Academic Success part 1
My great academic Success: In my principles of marketing class. We had to come up with a new product and sell it. My group ended up with a couple supposedly bad students according to our teachers since they were the last ones picked up. In the end they helped out more than needed since I was team leader I assigned them certain pieces of project that became solely their responsibility. Delegating work always helps since it allows a group member individual work without separating the group.
English, Math, Foreign language tips: math basically just takes practice. I always tell students to take a blank piece of paper and write everything you know about what you’ve learned or what you’re studying for in the class. Notecards work really well for students who want to get better grades .Go to class , make friends with people in class just in case you are absent, and remember that you should want to learn

I Will Persist Until I Succeed Part 2




I Will Persist Until I Succeed
Part 2

How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade: When receiving a bad grade, I just try to do better on the second exam and study harder. It’s hard when you have your first test in class and have no idea what to expect. The second one is usually easier since you know what to expect from your teachers.

My strategies for written assignments: Start early and make sure that you have proofread. Also, with written assignments, having a timeline planned out can help like by setting a certain number of pages done by a certain day before the paper is due .
How I succeed in team projects: COMMUNICATION! Despite your group synergy , communication is crucial. I remember I ran out of cell phone minutes constantly when working on a group project for my marketing research class. It’s really important that everyone is on the same page and getting the same emails. The worst is when two people are working on the same portion of the project and don’t even realize it.

Academic Success Story Heather A.’s
In high school, I didn’t study much in groups as I do in high school. I feel I learn better when I can teach other people information and we can exchange notes taken in class because sometimes other students pick up on more important information than others.
My overall study method: I prefer to study in small groups and practice problems where I can work out the methods verbally with other. My test study Method: I have very different techniques. For financial tests, I try to work on problems given in class as well as problems from power point and homework. When it comes to marketing classes, I review my notes and try to make diagrams to describe different processes.
My time management secret: One of my biggest secrets is to look over the information that you just learned when class is over. After reviewing the information, it sticks a little bit better than waiting until the night before the test. How I deal with multiple projects/test: I try to work on whatever has the shortest deadline and work from there. My overall study method: I tend to do massive studying blocks of about an hour or so in order to really learn the material.
