    Tips for anyone entering college: I was the type of student in high school that did not study for a test ever, just showed up to class and as long as I took a few important notes down I would be fine and pass with flying colors, it came naturally. Well in college it changes, a lot! what you cover in class is what most people have questions on and then the rest you have to teach yourself by studying the text, bad for me, I didn't know how to study, but there were a lot of resources available at UAF!! I strongly recommend you take advantage of them!! They are free and help so much!! read full review
