“Your future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow.”

I agree with this statement because if your rely on something you will do in the future and you never do it you wont succeed. However, if you do what’s right at this moment, be sure that what you want to accomplish will sure get there.

Improve your study skills
SQ3R stands for
Survey
Question
Read
Recite
Review
It is a proven technique to sharpen your study skills. In college, you’ll be required to do lots of reading. You’ll often have to complete reading assignments in several different books for several different courses at the same time. SQ3R helps make reading and studying purposeful and effective, so that you use your time most efficiently. Here’s how the strategy works.
Survey
Let’s say your assignment is to read one chapter. First, get an idea of what the chapter is about by reviewing the highlights:
Ø  Read the title, headings and subheadings.
Ø  Notice words that are italicized or bold.
Ø  Look at charts, graphs, pictures, maps, and other visual material.
Ø  Read captions.
Ø  Read every beginning and end of the chapter.

“There Is no justification ever for choosing any part of what you know to be evil”
-Ayn Rand
I agree with this statement because if you do what’s wrong or in this case what’s evil, then you will have consequences that you’ll regret in the future.

TIP 5: KEEP A LIST OF QUESTIONS
When you feel confused about something you’re reading, write down any questions you have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read further. If not, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember teachers create assignments; they’ve read texts and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions, your teachers can provide answers that will help you better understand the material. Learning is rooted in questions developed and asked by the learner.
Asking questions to yourself, to the teacher, and to the others, is a great learning method. When you cease to ask questions, you cease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently asking questions as you read. Questioning immerse you into the material you are reading and therefore will expand your mental capacities more than almost anything else.
The philosopher Sir Francis Bacon said, “Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension is the key to gaining important knowledge and making the most of your education. So pick up a book … and a pen.

Student success statement:

“When I was teaching basketball, I urged my players to try their hardest to improve on that very day, to make their practice masterpiece.”
This rule rule is even more important in life that basketball. You have to apply yourself to the task of becoming al little better each and every day. Over a period of time you will become a lot better. Only then is when you can be the best you can be. It begins by trying to make each day count and knowing you could never make up from a lost day.
-John wooden
I agree with this statement because if you try your best you will become even better at what you are best at. As the saying says practice makes master. However it all depends on you and on the effort you inquire to yourself and your everyday life.

Tips 3-4
Tip 3: Do Research
Literary cities have written vast numbers of analytic and critical pieces on countless books. If you’re having trouble understanding a particular text, do some research and see what knowledgeable sources have to say about it. In addition to increasing your comprehension, you’ll also be showing initiative, something teachers always like to see. Always use legitimate and scholarly sources, not condensed study guides. Going the extra mile in your research elevates your achievement 10-fold.
Tip 4: Use a dictionary
Make sure you have access to a dictionary when you are reading. You can often figure out the meaning of an unfamiliar word by using context clues, but sometimes you can’t. Rather than simply skipping over the words you don’t know, take the time to look them up. The results are well worth the effort. Your comprehension will increase greatly, and you’ll built your vocabulary at the same time.

Student Success Statement


Student Success Statement
“Every time I do something that doesn't feel right, it ended up not being right”
Mario Cuomo
I agree with this statement because if your conscience warns you that you are about to do something that’s wrong, then you should listen to it because that may save you lots of trouble. This statement says that if you are uncomfortable, even the slightest bit, then you shouldn't do it.
