I don’t know whether this will help him or not, as I haven’t viewed the DVDs, but Great Courses offers one called something like “How To Be a Superstar Student” that teaches how to take notes, review them, study for tests, and the like. I got this out from my public library just yesterday; it has a couple of “chapters” for parents, which is why I got it.

I think the study group suggest is an excellent one. I know when I got to college, I had NO idea how to study effectively. When I was an upperclassman, one of my best friends and I studied together for a test we had in virology, and wow! She had to know everything, and did. That’s why she was and always had been a straight A student. I learned a lot, and not just about viruses!

Good luck to him!
