This review is from: Raise Your GPA 1 Full Grade (Paperback)
I recently read "How to Raise Your GPA 1 Full Grade". This should be mandatory reading for all students making the transition from middle to high school. It is the kind of material that teachers are not/do not have the time/or curricula just hasn't accounted for. It is the hidden material so many students never get, thereby keeeping them from learning "how to study". Like Dr. Anhalt states, without learning "how to study" a student will never be able to learn course content.
Too many students go through 12 years of school and never become aware of how to take notes, how to read quickly and with comprehension, how to improve their lexicon, how to take a test, how to write a term paper, or the techniqes of mnemonics.
I wish I would have been aware of these study techniques when I was in high school ... and that was many many years ago. They weren't taught then and not today. I say that because I am a college professor, and every year my new students are more and more in need of Dr. Anhalt's skill sets.
