Hey! I'm in my first year of college, and I'm having trouble. It's honestly hard for me to pay attention in class. All teachers do is lecture, lecture, lecture, give a test, and repeat it all over again. I TRY to pay attention and take good notes, but it's never good enough. I've failed half of my tests so far. And since I have 4 more tests coming up within the next 3 weeks, I'm really nervous about those too. You HAVE to do good on tests, because really, that's all your grade is. A bunch of tests.
Does any one have any good study tips for college? It's also hard because they don't give study guides like they did in high school, so I never know what material to study. I really don't know if college is for me. The way I passed high school with As and Bs was..I'd do all the work given, do bad on the tests, and it'd average out to a B. I'm not used to studying. I try, but it doesn't work. Any advice? Thanks. (link)

Try different techniques for studying. For example, try flashcards, or try taping lectures so you can listen and repeat as much as you want. Just expirment and you will hopefully find a way to study that works for you. Best of luck!

Thanks! I actually have a voice recorder, its just been in my dresser for months. That's a really good idea, so if I space out during class (like always), I can always go back and retrieve whatever the professor said. Thanks for reminding me about that!!
