Student success statement
“Your future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow.”
-Robert Kiyosaki
your actions today will always affect that which has yet to happen. When one makes the right choices today then that person will have affected what will happen in his future for the better same thing applies with bad decisions if you make bad decisions then your future will hold uncertainty for you. If you do not do your school work or homework and do bad on tests does that  not affect you future?

 It is a proven technique to sharpen your study skills. In college, you'll be required to do lots of reading. You'll often have to complete reading assignments in several different books for several different courses at a time. 

SQ3R helps make reading and studying purposeful and effective, so that you use your time efficiently. Here's how his strategy works.

Survey

let’s say your assignment is to read one chapter. First, get an idea of what the chapter is about by trying reviewing the highlights:
  • Read the title and subheadings.
  • Notice words that are italicized or bold.
  • Look at the charts, maps, graphs, and other visual material.
  • Read captions.
  • Read the very beginning and end of the chapter.

Never
“There is no justification ever for choosing any part of what you know to be evil.”
-Ann Rand
Evil is evil no matter what. When you choose to do evil you must know that there is no justification for what you have done. Evil is what lurk behind everything, and although it is everywhere it does not mean that one should ever see it as something they might want to try. Evil can never be justified evil is evil no matter what perspective it is put in.

Tip 5: Keep a List Of Questions
When you feel confused about something you're reading, write down any questions you have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read further. If not, don't be afraid to ask for help. Remember, teachers create assignments; they've read the texts and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions, your teachers can provide answers that will help you better understand the material. Learning is rooted in questions developed and asked by the learner. 

Asking questions to yourself, to the teacher, and to others, is a great learning method. When you cease to ask questions, you cease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently asking questions as you read. Questioning immerses you into the material you are reading and therefore will expand your mental capacities more than almost anything else.


The philosopher Sir Francis Bacon said, "Knowledge is power." Improving your reading comprehension is the key to gaining important knowledge and making the most of your education. So pick up a book.. and a pen.
