Description of 50 plus one Ways to Improve Your Study Habits |

Everyone who is trying to improve their academic standing needs help, and this easy-to-use book with handy, practical tips is just the ticket. Learn the importance of regular study time, create a study environment that is free of distractions (no TV, radio or ear phones) and learn the importance of personal organization.
One of the basic lessons is be ready to study when it is time to study–no more looking for books, folders, assignments or half-completed work.
