10 tips for a better college experience

Steve Pavlina, who operates a website on personal development, offers 10 tips to help students create a better and more productive college experience.

Some of the advice he offers includes:

Ask yourself, “Why am I going to college?”

Take at least one extra class each semester.

Set clear goals for each class.

Get an early start to each day.

Reclaim wasted time during your classes by doing homework during those long lectures.

Learn material the very first time it’s presented rather than having to cram every time there is a test.

Have some serious fun! Challenge yourself academically, but give yourself plenty of time for fun as well.
