Tips for getting the best out of study at College/ university are:
* Try to attend all lectures, seminars and workshops. Although, obviously there will be times when for some personal reasons you cannot attend.
* Do work when you get it
* Work with others.
* To stop yourself from getting stressed and overloaded with work, try to organise time for your study in and around others demands on your life. Try to make a healthy balance of all of them.
Balancing study and other aspects of your life
Manage your time well for each module, but also make sure you get a good balance between work and social life. That is vital for life in general.
Set aside time specifically for each subject. Try to study one subject a day.
How to go about managing TIME
LIST all your activities on a piece of paper. How much time do you spend, on average, completing homework or studying?
What organizations do you belong to and when do they meet?
What sports are you involved in and when are the practices and games held? You get the picture. Put them in your
planner, in PENCIL, in case you need to adjust things later on.
PRIORITIZE. Give each item a number or letter as to how important it is. and according to when it needs to be
completed.
For example:
A. Needs to be done today.
B. Can wait until A tasks are finished.
C. Not that important and can wait until a later time or date.
GET REAL. You may want to list that Biology assignment as a C task but if your marks slip we don't see many Cricket Matches or Nach Baliya or BIG Boss in your future. Keep yourself honest and get the studying done first so you can fun later on.
Stay FOCUSED. The key to a managing your time with a calendar or planner is to stick with it. If it sits in your dresser drawer and never is used, it isn't serving its purpose very well. Make sure to keep at it and keep it up to date. Cross off tasks
If you do this SUCCESS IS YOURS !
