Another great way to structure studying is by using intense study sessions or the pomodoro technique. This allows you to set a goal to work for, intensely study for 30-50 minutes, and then assess how much that time of study helped. You can continue to cycle through this as many times as you need!

Sometimes when there is an upcoming test we know what material we need to study but don’t know how to structure it or when to start studying. At the ASC we recommend the 5 Day Study Plan. This is structured so you can study a couple hours each day and will help avoiding cramming the night before an exam! When students utilize this they also feel more confident going into exams!

For some people setting goals isn’t a problem. The problem comes in seeing them out to the end results. One way you can help be accountable for your goals is to create SMART goals. It helps you to be specific and allows you to list out ways you plan to meet them.

This week we want to focus on the topic of goals. Think back to a time when you reached a goal for yourself. How did you feel? Reaching goals can be so rewarding but meeting them isn’t always easy. That is why goal setting is such an important part to academic success!

A good strategy when filing out our time management resources is by recording what you need to do in this order: non negotiables (class, work, student org meetings), health and wellness (meals, sleep, workouts), study time, and free time.

This week is all about organization! There are so many reasons why organization is important but one specific reason is because as students there is so much to balance. A few ways you can track all of your information in one place is by using a planner or an online site like Google Calendar.
