Many students feel that they are "out of step" with other students. However, non-traditional students–those over age 24–are especially apt to feel this way. One effective morale booster is to form a study group with other students who are like you. In other words, if you are over 24, you may discuss child care (if that is an issue) with your group or commuting–issues that younger students may not have to deal with. Note: The principal reason for forming a study group with others like you is to get support. You want to be careful not to isolate yourself from the other students.

Think of five students in this class or another class who are like you who you could form a study group with: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Why did you choose these particular students? What do they have in common with you?
Be sure to call these students or approach them in class about the study group. Be sure to form other study groups with a diverse crowd. See how the two study groups compare. |
