Tips for Success Don’t procrastinate! Manage your time Surround yourself with support (Tutors, attend office hours, form study groups) “What environment do you study best in? ” Consider: noise level, lighting, time of day “There are only 24 hours in a day! Let’s do the math!” - 1 unit = 1 hour in class a week - 12 units = 12 hours in class a week - 1 unit = 2 hours of studying a week - 12 units = 24 hours of studying a week
