Problem No. 1: Cutting classes. Many students ignorantly think that they
can miss six, eight, 10 lectures in each course and still do well.
Problem No. 2: Overloading. Some students think it's a
point of pride to load up on as many courses work as the university permits.
Problem
No. 3: Overmedia-ing. Many college students spend
hours and hours a day on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Then they complain
that they don't have enough time for studying and that they have trouble
focusing on any content not dished up in bite-sized pieces.
Problem
No. 4: Procrastinating. Many students believe in
"no work before its time." They put off papers until the last
possible minute and pull "all nighters" right before the test.
Problem
No. 5: Going it alone. Many students shy away from
going to see their lecturers or teaching assistant, either because they're too
scared, they think the prof won't want to see them, or they think you should
only go when you're in trouble. As a result, they end up blowing a test or
paper when a few minutes with the instructor could have easily cleared up the
problem.
