_____ Know where to go for help.
_____ Ask for help when needed.
_____ Utilize your textbook.
_____ Know how much you'll need to study for each course.
_____ Go to every class.
_____ Take good class notes and review them.
_____ Think of questions related to the topic and involve yourself in class discussions.
_____ Study with a partner.
_____ Create a study plan for quizzes and exams.
_____ Appear on time for classes, quizzes, and exams.
_____ Hand in assignments on time.
_____ Proof read papers and assignments for grammar, legibility, and content.
_____ Utilize your "help" resources all the way through the term, not just at "crunch time".

The more you make a habit of these behaviors, the more successful you will be.
