roan) signals real
tudents' semesters
an exam, hack to fighting to keep the
(iPk up to please the parents, department
head, and sell.
I his is when freshmen suddenly
renli/e that a college student's life isn't
all i he partying and glory it's cracked up
to he.
It they want to continue their quest
toi a degree, it's time to buckle down.
It their sole reason tor coining here is
to have a good time, that attitude will
soon become short-lived. These partiers
will be sent packing to waste away at
home on t heir own.
It may finally dawn on students that if
they start in earlier with a good balance
between studying and partying, they'll
be able to handle tests, lor most part.
Hut there will always be those who
perteet the art of all-nighters, a feat unique
to eollege students, few of whom
will manage to barely slip by. But there
is a risk involved there, and this system is
not always reliable.
I he best method still wins every time:
Study Iroin the beginning, and keep it
up.
( iood luck.
