Remember, the number of courses that can be taken one student in each semester depending on student achievement index in the previous semester. In addition, these achievements would ignite your spirit to continue to excel at the next half-semester.


Selectively Selecting Friends

Friend is also one important factor. Independence in college made a fellow student relationships tend to be individualistic. Moreover, if the lecture that followed rarely or do not require cooperation and group cohesiveness.

Friend needed to learn, discuss, work assignments, or get information. Choose friends who fit in and can support your learning achievement because a friend gave considerable influence.

Establish Good Relations with Senior

Senior is also important for you to recognize. Be polite so that we can establish relationship well. They will be more sympathetic if you can appreciate them. You also can easily borrow the book and lecture material. In addition, information about courses, professors, and others also can ask your senior.


Utilizing Library

Nothing to lose if you frequently visit the library. As we know, library is information science warehouse. Especially if you can borrow textbooks from there.

Be Active Students
Being a student, certainly not the same as a student. Do not just pass through the same route every day: home--school-cafeteria-house again.

Many campus activities that you can follow. Starting from journalistic activities, arts, sports, photography, nature lovers, theater, scouts, etc.. Select the appropriate organization and match the interests and talents. Even better if it can support your studies organization.

By association, you can develop skills and deliver your ideas in every activity. Furthermore, you will have the managerial capability and skills in specific areas of a time of need when you've jumped into the community.

Manage your time
In college, you will be free and independent. For that, you yourself who will manage your studies alone. Want fast or slow? However, one should remember is that every state university has a maximum time limit of study. So clever-pandailah set the time between lectures with other activities.

Set the time when you eat, when to learn, when to rest, when to exercise, etc.. After you set, then do with discipline.

Read the Information

Information is very important for a student. Whether it's college information, campus activities, scholarship, and others. Sometimes, there are professors who cancel or change class schedules without giving notice directly to students. So, frequently read the announcement, or seek information from friends so as not to miss the news.


Keep your motivation

Motivation to learn remains to be preserved. There are students who have confidence that he will fail through a particular course, though he has not tried it. To achieve good achievement,you must set motivation and strong belief in yourself that you can follow the lectures.

There are also other cases, there are students who are too fond of his organization until his college negligent. All you have to remember is your main goal is college. Do not disappointed your parents by giving a bad performance lecture. But show that you can succeed in college without having obstructed organize.

How to deal with final examination

Friends , do you ever feel stress during final exams? I also often feel it, but I have some tips for dealing with them. I hope the following tips useful for you.
1. Avoid stressful people.

Stress actually is contagious. During exam week, resist the urge to have a study session with your super-tense friend, especially if she’s complaining about all the work she has to do and breaking pencils all over the place. Her stress will only add to your stress.

2. Eat healthy and exercise.

This seems like a no-brainer, but it’s a wonder how many people forget it. Skip the sugar, which will make you crash, and go for snacks like granola bars, healthy cereal or fruits and veggies to keep your blood sugar stable. If you’re studying for a long period of time, eat some protein too. Also, try to get some form of exercise. Even a 10 minute walk will leave you calmer and more focused.

3. Just say NO.

I don’t mean to drugs, although I’m not recommending them or anything. What you need to say no to are the people who want to take up your time. There will probably be a friend who needs to talk to you for hours about her life, or a keg party the night before your final, and if you say yes, you’ll probably be tempted to blow off studying. Resist the urge. Say no to the distractions and be selfish for a day. You want a good GPA, right?

4. Force yourself to take breaks.

For every hour or so that you work, take a 10 or 15 minute break. Let yourself do whatever you want (check Facebook, check out that guy sitting nearby, stare off into space, call a friend, etc.) for those 10-15 mins, then start working again. This gives your brain a little rest and will help keep you more focused when you are actually doing work.

5. Visualize it all going right.

This is actually my favorite tip of all, even though it sounds kind of nuts. Imagine yourself taking the test and feeling confident that you know all the information. Picture getting all of the answers right, and focus on how relaxed you feel. Then picture the A on your test paper. When you imagine a happy ending, that’s often what happens, because you make the decisions that lead to it without even realizing.

6. If you’ve studied all you can, get up your confidence!

When test-time rolls around, it’s time to get yourself into confidence mode. You’ve prepared as much as you could, and now it’s time to ace the test. The tip here is to do whatever works to convince yourself you are going to do really well. Again, I know this tip sounds a little crazy but you just have to try it for yourself. I think you’ll like the results.
