Study Skills Checklist for Students
Set a regular time and place to study each day and throughout the week.
Keep a daily “to do” list. Set goals for yourself. Do your reading assignments before the material
is discussed in class. Pay close attention and take good notes in class. Prepare for tests during your regular study times
instead of cramming at the last minute.
