<p>I think you should find a group of students in your classes or with the same major as yourself and study with them. I think when you study in groups, you end up keeping each other in check and studying doesn’t become as boring anymore. The downside is that you might end up wasting time. My friends and I sometimes goof off and waste time when we study together, but that’s only a small fraction of the time actually spent studying. So I think it’s definitely worth it. You just need to buckle down and work hard. All my friends that have struggled their freshmen year and bounced back were the ones that really made the extra effort to get good grades. They went to office hours, went to all their classes, formed study groups, took copious notes, reviewed their materials every night, and kept to a very routine schedule. Hope this helps!!</p>
