-  1.  Study group or solo study for a tough class?I have a big biology exam in two weeks. Some friends want to make a study group. I learn well alone, but I get stuck on hard parts. My schedule is tight, so I can meet two evenings a week for one hour. Should I split time between group and solo study? What rules can keep the group on task and not into chit chat?Posted 1 month ago by Joan Baker
-  2.  Is it too late to switch majors in my junior year?I'm worried I'm too far in to change without delaying graduation. If you've done it, how did you handle credit transfers and timing?Posted 1 month ago by COOPER TAYLOR
-  3.  Is switching from paper notes to a tablet actually worth it?I learn fine in lectures, but my notes are chaos and I rarely review them. If you switched from paper to a tablet, did it actually help or just add another thing to charge and fiddle with? Give me the pros and cons from real use, especially around distraction and cost. (I'm not looking for professional advice, just everyday experiences.)Posted 1 month ago by Cooper Taylor
-  4.  Struggling to keep facts in my head during tests?I study a lot, but I forget stuff on tests. I have soccer and chores, so I only have about 30 minutes most nights. I get distracted easy and and long reading makes me zone out. What study methods help me remember more in less time? I can use paper and a phone timer, but not paid apps or tutors. Simple steps I can try today would help.Posted 2 months ago by Eleanor Miller
