Study Tips
Time Management & Procrastination
Accomplish everything you need to get done by managing your time. Dedicating time to each area of your life can lead to greater fulfillment and satisfaction. The McRee Institute recommends creating a weekly, monthly and/or semester-long schedule to be successful and organized.
Manage Online Distractions: There is no foolproof way to prevent yourself from getting online or being distracted by online sites. However, there are a few programs that you could use to temporarily block your access to specific websites that tend to distract you. Here are a few suggestions: SelfControl (Free App for Mac users), Leechblock (Firefox Add-On) and Nanny for Google Chrome. Please read about each program carefully before installing to your computer.
Exam Preparation
Preparation is key is success. We recommend allowing at least 5-7 days to prepare for any upcoming exams. Make sure you do your personal best by using the best exam preparation available. The McRee U Test Prep programs are ideal for last minute cramming and preparations. U Test Prep system will ensure that you are confident, prepared and successful!
Study Skills
Do you feel discouraged by your exam scores? Are you fully prepared to take your exam, or are you lacking confidence? The McRee staff knows the way you study can be more important than how long you study. That is why they have developed the U Test Prep system which uses short, focused and comprehensive simulated exams.
Test Anxiety
Many students experience some level of anxiety during an exam. It becomes an issue when this anxiety affects performance. Fear of failure, procrastination and prior poor performance can all increase test anxiety.
Motivation
The learning experience can be both exhilarating and overwhelming. Often times, students feel pulled in many directions and their time is stretched thin. The wear and tear of busy days can leave some students feeling less motivated. Having these exam preparation tools at your finger tips when you are ready to use them, is key to successfully completing courses.
