How To Be a Good College Student. 

For this post, I want to share about some tips to be a good student at college. I hope this post will be helpful for you guys!

1. Meet a ton of new people. You don’t want to settle down with one or two people because you're being overwhelmed and you really don’t know what you want right now. This is not high school anymore and everyone is in the same boat as you; they want to meet new people and make friends just like you.
2. Organize!Organize!Organize! This can not be stressed enough. Most of the time you will have five classes, a paper due in one, 100 homework questions due in another, three chapters to read, among much more. You throw your social life into that mix, and you will be happy you had everything all planned out.
3. Do the homework. Yes, most of the time it is optional. But the teachers don’t assign it for their health. It is to help you, not to kill you.
4. Study. Maybe in high school you were one of those kids that could listen in class then walk in on test day and Ace it. That’s not the case here. Study, know the material, then you can go out. College is all about knowing something for a job, and people may not hire you if you don't know all the details about a certain subject. You are actually an expert on that subject when you are done with college so study.
5. Extra credit. Out of all my college classes, only a select few have given extra credit. Take it, it doesn't hinder you if you're wrong. It can only help. So do it.
6. Find out your professors' office hours. Go in and see them to make yourself known. Just don’t become a bother.
7. Eat well. Buy fruit and actually eat it. It is good to have vitamin C to crank up your immune system, along with vitamin B and D to relieve stress.
8. Have a life. Yeah college is important, but don't spend all your time holed up in your room studying. Go out have fun, party. This is college live it up. You don't have to "party", but try to have some type of social life and have a little bit of fun too.
