10 time management Tips for Students tip 5-10



Tip 5. Review Your Notes Every Day.
Reviewing helps you reinforce what you've learned, so you need less time to study before a test. You’ll also be ready if you get called on in class or have to take a pop quiz.
Tip 6. Get a Good Night’s Sleep
Your brain needs rest to perform at its peak. Lack of sleep makes the day seem longer & your tasks seem more difficult
Tip 7. Communicate your Schedule to Others.
If phone calls or texts are proving to be distractions, tell your friends that you are only available at a certain time of a day & not to expect a response at other times.
Tip 8. Become a Taskmaster.
Give yourself a time budget & plan your activities accordingly. Figure out how much free time you have each week before you add any commitments.
Tip 9. Don’t waste Time Agonizing,
Instead of agonizing & procrastinating, just do it. Wasting an entire evening worrying about something that you’re supposed to be doing is not productive, and can increase your stress.
Tip 10. Determine Your Priorities
You can’t do everything at once. Establish the importance of each item. Then set realistic goals that are attainable.

Successful student 10



10.      Successful Students are good time managers. Successful students do not procrastinate. They have learned that time control is life control and have consciously chosen to control of their life.
An element truth: you will either control time or be controlled by it! It’s your choice: you can lead or be led, establish control or relinquish control, steer your own course or follow other. Failure to take control of their own time is probably the no.1 study skill problem for college students. It ultimately causes many students to become non-students! Procrastinators are good  excuse-makers. Don’t make academics harder on yourself than it has to be. Stop procrastinating. And don’t wait until tomorrow to do it!
The 10 items listed above are paraphrased from an article by Larry M Ludewig called Ten Commandments for Effective Study Skills which appeared in The Teaching Professor, December, 1992.
