Tips and Reminders
- Attend class regularly and seek help early in the semester.
- Know where you need help. Review your notes, work through your
homework assignment, and come prepared with specific questions.
- Bring your book, assignment, course syllabus, pencil, eraser, paper,
and a calculator.
- If you miss a class, you should also get the notes you missed from a
friend or your instructor.
- Don't get behind. Stay current with your assignments.
- We also encourage you to work with a study group. Many students have
found study groups to be a valuable tool in their academic success. Even
if you can find just one other person from your class to work with, you
will benefit from the support and sharing of knowledge with others.
- Maintain a positive attitude.
