Make a schedule to complete papers on time
•[ How to Get Good Grades at University ]•● Schedule

Students typically attend 5 courses over a 12 week term. Most courses
have a term paper and final exam as primary bases for assessment. The
term papers are usually due about week 10. So students write 5 papers
over 10 weeks. Make a schedule at the beginning of term that shows when
each paper will be researched and written and follow it. Best sources to
use for papers are academic journal articles. They are more focused ant
therefore much easier to absorb than book length studies.

Seminar participation grades may only be 10-15% of the final grade, but
cutting seminars means a reduction of about 1.5% for each one missed so
missing 3 can bring the mark down a grade. Some instructors do not give
credit to students who remain silent in a seminar. Reading the assigned
text and having something to say about it during a seminar is important.

before.
