Inhaltsangabe:

F MEANS FLOUNDERING aims at traditional and non-traditional (returning adult) students beginning college with little idea of what a student must do. Professor Swanson grew from nearly flunking out of his first semester in college to graduating from college; eventually earning a master’s and a doctorate as well as becoming a college professor.

Becoming a more efficient and effective student is built on seven essential components: know (1) where you are going, (2) what’s going on in the classroom, (3) how to listen and what to listen for, (4) how to learn, (5) how to prepare for tests, (6) how to take tests, and (7) how to use your time efficiently.

Most how-to-study books overlook the importance of listening in the classroom. Simply saying, "Listen carefully," or "Pay attention," is not enough for most students. When students listen effectively, they can learn what they need to know and what is going to be on the test. Students who get better grades are not smarter; they listen better.

Knowing what you’re doing as a student makes school much easier. Dr. Swanson always told his classes, "If I could learn to get better grades, almost anyone can."
