Successful students exhibit a combination of successful attitudes ans behaviors as well as intellectual capacity. Successful students. . .

1.     . .are responsible and active. Successful students get involved in their studies accept responsibility for their own education and the different between leading and being led. Your own efforts control your grades you earn the glory or deserve the blame you make the choice. Active classroom participation improves grades without increasing study time. You can sit there, act bored, daydream, or sleep. Or, you can actively listen, think, question, and take notes like someone in charge of their learning experience. Either potion costs one class period. However, the former methods will require a large degree of additional work outside of class to achieve the same degree of learning the latter provides at one sitting. The choice is yours.

2.     …have educational goals. Successful students have legitimate goals ans are motivated by what they represent in terms of career aspiration and life’s desires.
