Study Skills

​"Study for your test" - what exactly does that mean?  We have found that "Studying" looks different for each student.  Some students have no idea what it means to study and some students have a fairly extensive study plan with self-created study guides, using multi-colored highlighters, flashcards, etc. The purpose of this page is to give students some suggestions for how to improve their study skills or habits.
