The most important thing any
student can do is aim to understand. Many students see their classes and
classwork as things they have to “put up with” in order to get a degree. Let me
be the first to tell you that you won’t get far with that type of attitude. You
have to look at your classes like a mechanic would look at a car. To become a
mechanic one must learn the parts of a car and understand how those parts fit
together to create a moving vehicle. Once a mechanic comes to this
understanding, then figuring out how to repair anyone one part of the car
becomes easy. It’s the same with school work. When you understand syntax,
grammar, and essay structure then writing a term paper for English class is
relatively easy. So before you can learn how to be successful in college you
must commit yourself to truly understanding the subject matter of all your
classes.
