What Students Have Told Us
Students have told us over and over that they are tired of not meeting the grade expectations of post-secondary study. In fact, universities, colleges, professors, administrators, parents, and students are all saying the same thing. Why are so many students struggling and what advice can be given to help students achieve academic success?
We decided to take that challenge head on and put our experience on paper. Our goal was to write something that anyone could read in one or two sittings and we wanted to put it in plain language. We are NOT recruiting you.
Here is a sampling of just some of the topics we cover:
Getting great grades
Studying well
Dropping courses
Managing homework
Managing colllege costs and staying out of debt
Writing a great paper
Wiping your grades
Productivity tips
Arming yourself with the right tools
We remember struggling to achieve success. And we both found the formula for success while we were in the thick of it.
