Don't always believe the professor on the first day of class because they always talk about how much work they will give throughout the semester. Remember the professor has to grade this work too.
不要總是相信老師在第一節(jié)課上說的話。因為他們在第一節(jié)課上總是會說他們在這個學期里會布置多么多的作業(yè)。記住，他們也得改這么多的作業(yè)。

Don't be scared to talk to or ask your professors or teaching assistants questions. Remember they are there to help you. That's why they hold office hours. Go to their office hours regularly or when needed and don't wait till the last minute to ask them questions.
不要害怕和你的老師或者助教談話或者提問。記住他們在這兒是來幫助你的，這就是為什么他們有專門的辦公室接待時間。經常在這段時間去問問題，別等到考試前最后一刻才想起去問。

If you can't make it to all the office hours, then go to review sessions before exams. You will see how helpful these may be when you are pressed for time to study a lot.
如果你不能每次都去辦公室問問題，那就去考試前的復習課。如果你學習的時間有限，你就會發(fā)現這些復習課是多么的有用。

Use the resources at your school. The library is always a great place to study.
好好利用學校的資源。圖書館一直是學習的勝地。

Attend class. Even if attendance is not taken, attendance keeps you on top of things.
不要翹課。就算出勤率不算分，去上課也能讓你一直在這門課上保持領先。

Avoid procrastination. Waiting till the last day to work on a paper is not a good idea. Break your work up into chunks. Just think if you started it when it was assigned. You could always have fun and relax after.
不要拖延。等到最后一天才去寫論文，這并不是一個好主意。把你的工作分為幾小塊。想想如果從作業(yè)布置下來就開始動手，那么你到最后的那幾天就能放松享受了。
