- Get a tutor for chemistry.
- Take advantage of office hours and any help offered by the department.
- See if you can find others in your class to study with.
- Develop a schedule and stick to it. Leave time to eat, exercise, and sleep. But stick to your class, tutor meeting, & study schedules.
- If you know you have a bad habit, figure out how to break it. Do you hang out after dinner in the dorm when you meant to go to the library? Take your stuff to dinner to avoid going back to the dorm. Too much internet time? Turn off access, and reward yourself with a timed break when you finish an assignment. Oversleep & and classes? Get a better alarm.
