dont know if this will get too many replies, but i was wonderin if anyone had any study tips for me, first year of college and for some reason i have trouble remeberin what we learned in class unless i go over it over and over again and it sucks

From what I remember lol:

Read everything three times. Most stuff you can. Need to read a chapter? Read it once, then go back and read it a day later. Then read it again. One teacher I had passed study tips out with a study that backed up that after reading material 3 times the amount that gets stuck in your long term (or not so short) term starts staying there.

Don't get behind and keep up at all costs. N-brainer.

Don't cram. If you have a test on 4 chapters coming up in a week. Space it out and read portions each night and leave a night or two to review. Again cramming sticks it to your short term and good luck with that. :thumbsup:
