From the Back Cover
Chapter 1 shows how college presents educational opportunities, resources, support, and tools for success. Chapters 2 and 3 discuss how goals, time management, and learning styles can help you make the most of them.
Your skills in reading and studying, listening and memory, note taking and research, writing, and test taking will get a boost as you read Chapters 5, 6, 7, 8, and 10. In addition, Chapter 9 tells you what you need to know to succeed in math and science courses.
Thinking skills (Chapter 4) promote success because you are more able to create new ideas and solve school, work, and life problems effectively when you know how your mind works.
Chapter 11 will help you define and refine your relationships with others; Chapter 12 will help you manage your money; and Chapter 13 will offer ideas about how to maintain physical and mental health. Being a successful student means more than just passing your tests.
As you work to plan your career in Chapter 12 and contemplate how to adjust to change, handle failure and success, and live your personal mission in Chapter 13, you will be laying the groundwork of your future success.
