Assalamualaikum to all readers...

Many student came to college but do not know what it takes to be a successful in the college environment. They understand good and bad grades in a general ways and they sense that thye should attend classes, but there is where their knowledge begins and end.

*  Successful students attend classes regularly. They are on time. They listen and train themselves to pay attention. If they miss a session, they feel obligated to let the instructor know why before class begins, if possible, and their excuses are legitimate and reasonable.

*  Successful students take advantage of extra credit opportunities when offered. They demonstrate that they care about their grades and are willing to work to improve them.

*  Successful students are attentive in class. They don't talk, read, or stare out windows. In other words, they are polite and respectful, even if they get a little bored.

*  Successful students see their instructors before or after class or during office hours about grades, comments on their papers, and upcoming tests. Successful students end up at their instructor's office door at least once during the semester.

*  Successful students turn in assignments that look neat and sharp. They take the time to produce a final product that looks good, and reflects of a care and pride in their work. Successful students seem driven to complete their assignments.
