Time Management

Getting an education takes time. But time is sometimes hard to come by and even harder to use wisely.

Successful studying means budgeting your time. Here are some tips:

• Develop a schedule that includes all “regular” activities, such as classes, a part-time job, meals, family responsibilities while still leaving time to recharge your batteries.
• Don’t skip classes. Missing classes keeps you from learning.
• Reserve time to sleep, exercise and recreation.
• Schedule review time for right after a lecture or right before a discussion if you can.
• Plan ahead for major projects and exams
• Break up the task (goal #1-find sources, goal #2–take notes, etc.)
• Try to study the same subject at the same time each day.
• Take short breaks. You need and deserve them.
• Don’t hesitate to seek help if you’re having difficulty with a course.
