5.0 out of 5 stars Changed the way I learned forever, February 14, 2008

By 

Vero "Raw Student" (Westport, CT USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Study, 6th Edition (Paperback)

I read this book many years ago (maybe it was the first or second edition) and it changed my style of studying forever. I was failing my pre-med courses when I found this book. I ended up getting A's in organic chemistry and applied calculus. This book should be required reading before undertaking any serious scholastic endeavor. This is the only book that doesn't disguise the effort that is required in learning - no magic tricks nor skills that only "special" students have - the ability is in all of us and Ron Fry shows you how.

I learned most of these lessons the hard way.... years and years of studying the wrong way. Save yourself time and a GPA and take a look.
