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 that I had extra
difficulty on. Many times I would ask the teacher for any 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 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
questions 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.
