Sarah’s Academic Success Story


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 an 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 question 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!!
