Jake really nails it in this terrific new book. As a high school teacher, I am so glad to have a book I can offer my students that will share the unvarnished, real world expectations of a competitive degree. Knowing where the bar is and how to achieve your best results is incredibly powerful. I am 100% sure this book will help lots of kids live up to their dreams. Nice job Jake! I recommend this book for serious-minded high school juniors and seniors and anyone in college.

This book is FILLED with resources and techniques to help obtain a degree. I decided to start school after a 5 year long "summer break" and this book is going to be one of the main contributors to my success after being a lazy bones the past few years. If you have any doubts about getting a degree or are already struggling with school, this book will definitely
help. I also bought the audio version, but needed the book as a textbook as well. Both are great resources.

Very helpful for students

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 7, 2022

Verified Purchase

After a 45 year career as an electrical engineer, I am involved with the engineering program at the University of Kentucky as an alum. This book is an excellent guide for student success. It mirrors many of the strategies I used to get through engineering school. I highly recommend it for incoming engineering students and the faculty and staff who guide them. Also an excellent guide for high school career counselors to share with prospective STEM students.

This was a fun, and inspiring book about becoming a successful engineering student. It had life lessons for school study techniques and would apply to anyone wanting to stay focused, saving time, energy and money just by being focused and motivated toward any career choice. Great read. Smart gift for high schoolers and college students. I’ve purchased two already.

I highly recommend this book as it has personally helped me a ton, even though I have a long way to go this book gives me the means to do that. It has helped me focus more and achieve the motivation I was lacking. It also has great study skills. Overall, a terrific book, you will definitely benefit from it.
