Study Smarter, Not Harder (Reference Series) 3rd Edition

Other than paying $10 for the book and opening the package to find that it had been bought at a thrift store for a $1.50, it was good. The book was in decent condition.

I'm a returning college student after working for about 7 years, and all I can say is that I wish I would have read this book a long, long time ago- before high school even. Parents, if you're looking for some assistance with a struggling teenager or college student- this book has some GREAT advice that contradicts many of the commonly accepted studying practices. I personally have seen a dramatic difference in my retention by employing some of these techniques. For the money (less than $15) it is definitely worth every penny.

Used this as a textbook for a study skills class. It was life changing! So great!

Great book. Really helping me get through school right now. Arrived quickly in pristine condition. Albeit one of my required textbooks I find a lot of useful ways in which I can better myself. Very pleased with my purchase. :)

I bought this book because I will be teaching freshmen college students so survival skills for college courses. This book is written clearly and is focused on practical skills. I highly recommend reading and following the suggestions.Partcularily good advise is on page 98 "it is about on simple choice: either you control your schoolwork, or it will control you." Another chapter is devoted to reading different kinds of books. Great!!

This book is very helpful. My son is benefiting greatly.

Nice book!

Its a great book. Very helpful regarding time management, study strategies and ways for active learning in class and home.

I bought the kindle version and found that the book gives good advice on studying tips, very useful for young people and adults. Can use some of the guidance and transfer these skills that you learn in the book for other events in life.

This book covers all the main principles that you need for succeed on study: time management, motivation, mnemonic technics, how to prepare the material, how to prepare the local you're using for study, etc. It's a "must have" one. Even better than others memory books that only focus on the memory. Don't waste your time with other books. Go direct to the point!

A good read!
