College Happenings

The best way to reduce study time is to do the assignments. That’s where you use the concepts that are supposed to be mastered. While in high school, homework was almost always collected, often in college, the day-to-day assignments are not, making it very tempting to just let it slide, and focus on the stuff you’ve got to turn in or the work that is most important to the overall grade.

Keep up with the day-to-day assignments. Do the assignments not like you’re filling out a form, as quickly as possible so it can be crossed of the to-do list, but instead with the focus you need to master the material. That approach can significantly reduce how much time you actually have to study, because once you use a concept enough, it becomes yours, you own it.
