How to Take on College Studying

Part 3

Do the Reading

You need to do more than just read the chapters you are assigned —you’re expected to understand them thoroughly. Here are some tips:

·      Don’t skim. Read all the material carefully.

·      Break up difficult assignments into sections you can digest – chapters, subsections or even paragraphs.

·      Look up any words that you don’t understand.

·      Pause to think about whether you understand the material; ask questions in class about anything that is unclear.

·      Take notes instead of highlighting – this makes you think through and rephrase key points.

·      Create a summary sheet of what you learned from each assignment you read.
