Tips for a nickel :)

The note taking article was really helpful because I didn't know how to take notes. We took notes in class by not having notes for yourself so I really didn't understand why notes were important. Notes are important because they help you recap your last chapter and remember any questions you want to ask for the next class. Another helpful tip is one I did on my own, I printed out each syllabus and put a thumbtack to each of them on my wall so it'll be the first thing I see when I wake up, first walk into my room or just randomly observe my room. Also some info that has stuck with me is our discussion of taking the responsibility to do your work and etc because the teachers won't remind you at the end of the class even though it would be helpful. I have to learn to manage my time better, so far I've been doing okay, i think. I will make sure I keep on the track of my degree I don't want to take classes that I won't need just to try something new, my parent isn't paying for college for me to experiment with different classes. I already knew what I wanted to be since I was younger, I just wish I was already there. Also if I don't understand a class I'll have to learn to ask for help because the teacher doesn't always asks, just assumes that everyone gets it. If I don't ask for help then I'd probably have to repeat the course which will hold me back on getting my requirements for my degree. All the tips I've gotten so far from all my teachers have been helpful in some way, so none of the advice has been not necessary. Now if only I can find a article about how to lessen procrastination.
