让大学生活不后悔的10个建议1. Answer thequestion, Why am I going to college?回答问题：“我为什么要上大学？”Many college students really dont have a clearreason for being there other than the fact that they dont knowwhat else to do yet. They inherit goals fromfamily and peers which arent truly their own. What are you thereto learn? What do you want to experience?很多大学生对于上大学都没有明确的原因，除了一个事实不知道还有其它的事可以做。他们的目标不是出于内心而是根植于家庭以及同伴。你在这里学什么？你想要经历体验什么？2. Imagine yourideal college experience。想象你的大学生活Once you know why youre going to university,imagine your ideal outcome. Whether youvealready started university or not, stop and simply write down someattributes of your ideal experience. Describe it in as much detailas you can. Real life will of course turn out differently than youvisualize. The point of visualization is to giveyou more clarity for making decisions right now。一旦明确了上大学的目的，就想象一下最完美的结局。无论你是否已经开始了你的大学生活，停会儿，把你的一些完美畅想的特点都简单地写下来。尽可能地描述详细。真实的生活当然会不同于你的想象。但想象的关键在于可以帮助你现在更好地做决定。3. Take at leastone extra class each semester。每学期至少要报一门选修课The real benefit to a dense schedule isnt thatyoull graduate sooner. The real benefit is thatyoull enjoy a richer experience. This sort ofthing sure looks great on a resume。紧凑的学习计划的真正好处不是你能很快毕业。真正的好处是你可以享受一个更丰富的经历。而且这也会给你的简历锦上添花。4. Set clear goalsfor each class。每个课程都确立目标Decide what you want out of each specific class.Sometimes youll achieve your goals; sometimes youwont. Even if you do your best, you may stillfall short. Youll have to pick your battles. Some are worth fighting; others are best ignored。考虑决定好你想从每个课程里得到什么。有时你会达到你的目标，有时不会。尽管你尽力了，但你有可能仍然失败。你要选择你的战场。有些值得战斗，有些完全可以忽略。5. Triageruthlessly。有所取舍You dont need to put an equal amount of effortinto every class. Inject extra effort when itsimportant to you, but feel free to back off a little from classesthat are a low priority based on your specific goals。你无须对每一个课程都付出同样的努力。重要的课程可以多加把劲，但对于那些对你的目标无足轻重的课程可以松懈一点。 6. Get an earlystart to each day。一天之计在于晨Getting an early start each day helped you get alot more done, not just in the morning but throughout the day。每天早起对你益处很多，不仅仅是早晨而是一整天。7. Reclaim wastedtime during your classes。充分利用课堂时间Not every class is going to require your utmostconcentration. Sometimes teachers babble. Sometimes they reiterate what you already know. If a class isreally challenging, sit in the front and soak up everyword. But if a class isnt challenging you, thensit in the back, do homework for other classes, and pop your headup every once in a while to see if theres anything worth jottingdown。不是每一节课都需要你全神贯注。有时老师只是在东扯西拉，有时只是在重复你已经知道的东西。如果这节课很有意思，那么坐在前面，仔细听每一个字。如果很无聊，那么坐在后面完成其它学科的家庭作业吧。当然，每隔一会要抬头听听是不是有什么值得记下来。8. Learn materialthe very first time its presented。拒绝重复学习One of the biggest time wasters in school ishaving to relearn something you didnt learn properly the firsttime. When students say theyre studying, most ofthe time theyre making up for a previous failure to learn thematerial。学校里最大的一个时间浪费就是不断重新学习你在第一次没有完全掌握的东西。学生们说他们在学校时大部分的时间都是在重复以前的错误。9. Master advancedmemory techniques。科学记忆One of the keys to learning material the firsttime is to train yourself in advanced memory techniques. I dontrecommend memorizing by repetition because its way too slow。学习的关键之一就是掌握科学的记忆方法。不推荐重复记忆，因为太没有效率了。10. Have someserious fun!享受生活Chal
