Motivation

[adpiucf]

Talk to your academic chairman. She'll have lots of ideas.

Set up a study group that meets weekly in the library.

Set up a competition with some sorority sisters-- theme it by making a chart-- whoever gets the highest grades for the semester gets treated to a girls night out-- and everyone goes out to celebrate the end of the semester. Maybe you can make it a "garden" theme-- each of you represents a flower and the flower grows with each good grade.... etc.

Get class study buddies

Make a sister your study motivator-- and you will be hers. Leave each other little notes and gifts, and meet to study weekly. Even if it is a different subject, knowing that the other is depending on you to show up is enough to get you to the study spot.

Go to Starbucks to indulge your $5 latte habit and spend 3 hours there studying

Go the tutoring center

Limit yourself to one mixer and one sisterhood event (intramural game, hanging at the house, going to a service project) during the weekdays.

Make Sunday "study day" from 1-4 PM. Go to Starbucks or the library. This gives you time to go to worship or recover from Saturday night, whichever is more "you"-- on Sun morning. You even have time to meet friends for brunch.

Track your progress-- start a blog, even!
