Next semester is around the corner!! and it's time to get re-motivated to get moving and get going. It doesn't have to be as hard as everyone makes it out to be. Just taking the time to prepare can take the stress out a bit. Here's how:
1. GET TO KNOW YOUR CLASSES
Read the details and descriptions of the class your taking to make sure you grasp what's expected of you. Get your mind ready to ingest all the information; it helps in retaining the materials.
2. PRINT OUT YOUR SYLLABUS
Don't wait until you get to class to get a copy of the syllabus. Try to obtain it yourself to start reviewing your course load. Getting a head start on what will be required if you can help you balance other areas of your life.
3. COMPARE TEXTBOOK PRICES
Start comparing prices online, at your local bookstore, and other surrounding bookstores. See what discounts you can get and which method works for you. When I choose all online classes, I find that the Nook or online versions are worth their price because of their flexibility.
4. KNOW YOUR PROFESSORS
Find out your professors best hours. Get proactive on developing a teacher and student relationship. Don't be lost in the crowd. Find out what times your professors are best available so you can get the help you need.
5. TALK TO YOUR ADVISOR
Please, please, please talk to your advisor. See which advisor is assigned to your and your program. They are a wealth of information to make sure your headed in the right track. Be proactive; plan your questions.
Be proactive in your future and create time for more of the things you love like family, friends, shopping, tumblr, etc. Failing because you didn't try hard enough is a terrible excuse. Know your priorities and plan accordingly. Stay focus and productive for this coming semester.
YOU GOT THIS!
