studying, reading skills, preparing for tests, taking tests, writing skills,
and writing essays. Within these areas there are topics such as effective
study habits, how to contribute to discussion in the classroom, taking
notes from a text book, emergency test preparation, and transitional words
and phrases.

Again, this is written for college students.
Success in school requires that you use your time well. In fact, you must
carefully plan your time and use your best skills to make sure you learn
the most in the least time. The main point of time and effort planning
is to choose the best way to meet your obligations in the time available.
