1. FIND THE DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH
“When you focus on what you find interesting about a class and connect with that, it makes you feel invested, which increases your determination to get that “A.” Look at those boring classes as stepping stones to future interesting ones.”
2. FIND YOUR HAPPY (STUDY) PLACE
“One of my keys for success is finding a spot away from my apartment/room to work on homework and only homework. So every time I go to that place I know it’s homework time and nothing else. For me, it’s a corner seat at Starbucks that I like to go to.”
3. YOUTUBE IT
“I used resources outside of the class to help me learn the material better. For example, if I was confused about something in my physics class, I looked it up on YouTube. I watched a ton of videos, or I searched it on the Internet to find a legitimate answer.”
