How to become an Excellent Student (1)

  1. Come to class and pay attention. This one should be a
    no-brainer. If you must miss class, write or e-mail your lecturer or professor in advance and
    explain your situation. And when you’re in class, be visibly attentive;
    let your lecturer or professor know you’re in the room.
  2. Learn to balance
    your studies and your job (if you are working). Your job is not an end in itself but a means
    for you to go to university. To confuse those priorities is to defeat
    the very purpose of being here.
  3. Be prepared in advance for all
    of your assignments. This is called “studying.” Get used to doing it;
     it will be your primary activity for the next few years in school.
  4. Read
    sitting up (not in bed), with a pencil to mark up the text. A clean text
    is an unread one. And whenever the lecturer or professor emphasizes a portion of a text or lecture,
    mark it if you haven’t done so already. It may be on the next test or exam.
  5. Find
    a quiet, regular place to study. This is your special sanctum, for that
    purpose only. Don’t eat, listen to music, or entertain your friends
    there.
  6. Study in sessions of no more than an hour, then take a
    break. Three sessions of fifty minutes each week is better than three
    hours at one sitting. A general rule is two hours of study time for each
    hour of class.
  7. Finish your papers several days early so you’ll
    have time to revise them. Read your paper out loud to a friend; you‘ll be surprised how many
    mistakes you catch.
  8. Know your lecturers that have the interest of the students at heart. Talk to these people. They have an interest in
    helping you succeed–and get lonely during their office hours if no one
    comes.
  9. Go regularly to the library; knowledge is in books, not
    on Wikipedia. Consider your college education a bibliography for the
    rest of your life.
  10. Find an appropriate spiritual cum social outlet. The best
    students are well-rounded. A social outlet is not, however, a wild night
    on the town.  Join campus fellowships or youth churches and organizations that will help you develop as a students.
     Check the school newspaper for events happening both on campus and in
    the community.
  11. Begin studying for an exam very early. And
    learn proper test-taking skills, e.g.: write identifications in complete
    sentences; make sure your essays have thesis and topic sentences; if
    you have a choice of topics, choose the one(s) that will show the
    breadth (not just depth) of your knowledge; and proofread your exam
    papers before submitting them.
  12. Enjoy yourself, serve God, be prayerful, study your bible and always take some time out to rest and meditate.
