    When attending any kind of College or (open) University, there should be a website with existing forum where any College/University attendant can browse through existing threads and open their own, to be answered by their peers and/or tutors.

    Anyhow, your question is a bit confusing. You state that you went to collegue, but you are no longer? Or are you?
    What exactly do you mean with "taking English methods". You should have gotten some kind of booklist when signing up.

    As for being lazy; it's quite ironic you have to ask this on a gaming forum, haha. Anyway, asking help is the first step. Not taking too much at once, is a second. I never needed to study and have never done so either, until I hit College. The difference is so sudden and drastic, you have a lot of catching up to do. Planning is key.

    Planning in pauzes and "other stuff to do" is just as important, if not more.
    It does not do well to plan a study part of 3hours on end with but 10 min break inbetween, if you're wasting 2/3rds on tinkering and delaying. Better make the study parts short, but intensive.

    You need to be strict and stick to the schedule. For all I care, you ask someone to take away your phone or shut down the electricity.
    There is no given method, every person is different. I for one, can't be bothered writing summaries - I take it you are neither. You spend 90% of your time writing them and only 10% actually studying.. if at all (as I usually run out of time to still study after I finish with summarizing).
    Learn straight from the book, but even more so always find matching reallife examples/cases of anything you study. It helps you see the logic and thus remember it better as well.



    As for terminology: that's just blatant studying by heart. No can do there. It sucks, it's tiresome, it's necessary.


    Do not study in utter silence, unless the environment in which you make your exam is also utterly silent (hardly ever the case). Instead, study in open places with people going about their business (not children). A local (busy) library, a parc, etc..

    Sorry my English is bad when it comes to writing.
    I'm in college and this is my first year.
    No, our college doesn't offer such browser or site.
    I meant English subjects.
    I actually am going to do that I will ask my dad to take away my phone my pc, just them all, because if not now then never right.
    The problem with our subjects is that they are so full of information, and the exam comes from any part of the book, how i am supposed to remember all of that.
    we actually have to write so much that the time "2hours" in exam can make it even more stressing.
    That's true imagining the cases u study is so helpful, yet I can't use it in all my subjects, sometimes it's hard to find a matching case or even imagining one.
    That's why i am asking for a site of such thing where I can find all the information I need, yet if I ever find that site i will only access it from a small phone, I wish there was a program where I can strict all kind of games, facebook and all that for a period of time you choose lol.
    You see the transition part between high school and college is really hard, especially when you are asked to do very well in the first year of the college, it's like this is your life infront of you, you either fail or succeed. That's to say, thank you so much for your help you are a real free spirit.
