Product Description

These days college is not a luxury but a necessity. With four (or more) long years of college life ahead of them, it's essential that students have some help to make the most of their time. This book explains how, featuring peers who talk directly and personally to students. Here, hundreds of successful college grads explain how to get top grades, find the right major, manage time, stay motivated, avoid stress, seek out the best teachers and courses, form important relationships, and graduate — happily — at the top of the class. Short, pithy chapters cover such topics as writing a good paper, research and the college library, taking advantage of college support services, balancing athletics and academics, navigating modern college technology, and more.

"Great Advice From Those Who Have Already Been There" 5 stars
What a great graduation gift! Going to college right out of high school is one of the biggest transitions one can make. This book is filled with practical advice that is given in short blurbs. You can read it in one setting or just a few minutes at a time.
The only point that I did not see in this book is that it is wise to not have roommates--even if you have to spend extra money.
Get this book for your graduate. I recommend this!

Great book for a college freshman5
This book offers a wide variety of tips for the college student looking for some help studying. Some of the tips may seem kind of weird, but remember that they are trying to help everyone, including people with different learning styles than you. Keep looking and you'll find the tips that are right for you.

A great book with many practical suggestions5
How to Get A's in College This is a good book to have around your dorm room. It's not a sit down and read all at once kind of book, but if you take a couple minutes each day to read a few suggestions, you'll find some really good ones that may actually help your study patterns. Like this one:

"I would go to coffee shops and to the school library to get in some quiet time. I also utilized the library at a nearby law school because it was even more quiet and comfortable. If I needed to cram for a test I would go to Denny's sit in a back booth, and work on a pot of coffee."

There are tons of great suggestions and tips from college students who have tried them. Every quote has a name (or anonymous) with a GPA. You know that these students have really looked for the best way to get A's.
