How to succeed in college, and in general, how to make sure that three or four years of study did not go down the drain?
Tip 1: This advice is aimed at school leavers and university entrants. Usually, at the end of Year 9 or 11, pupils have a busy time: they have to take their final exams, choose a profession and choose a college. But the motto of most of these days is "just to get in, to pass the competition, I don't care where". This happens because students have no time to think, because they are busy with homework all the time. But there is a way out of this situation. Take help from one of the Studybay experts.
When you have more time, you, like every university applicant, must answer a few questions:
1. Have I decided on my future profession?
2. Why am I going to this college? What do I expect from my studies?
2. What will I do after college? How will the knowledge or connections I have made at this college help me in my career?
3. Where would I go if I knew for sure that I would go?
4. Where should I go, given my answers to the previous three questions?
Tip 2: So, you got into college, you did your first month of college. That's great! Now it's time to stop and think again.
1. What has changed in my attitude towards college? What new (and important) things have I learned about it?
2. What can this college give me in terms of knowledge and experience?
3. How and where are its graduates employed?
4. What can this college give me besides knowledge? (experience of social activities, start of an academic career, creative development, sports)
It is important that you answer these questions as early as possible and determine as honestly as possible the most important thing: how your studies and extracurricular activities relate to your life goals. Which path to self-development you should take. You should always be fully aware of your situation.
