Synopsis

"Extraordinary book to which all students can relate. The author did a fantastic job of connecting with readers to empower them to do better in their own lives. The five-minute to-do list and 45 techniques are extremely useful and will not only help you in college, but also in real life." MARQUIS GAUBATZ, Sophomore, Public Relations, University of Texas, San Antonio. "This helpful and humorous collection of tips can foster the perpetually busy student's success in and outside the classroom. The book is a quick read, yet packs in the necessary information. The candor and wit are refreshing." SOPHIA MOSSBERG, Freshman, Barnard College, Columbia University, NY. "This book is the perfect prescription for anyone looking to get his or her life on track by setting appropriate priorities and planning a college schedule accordingly. The most significant characteristic of this book that makes it so easy to read is the humor. This book is hysterical! I have one piece of advice: JUST READ IT!" MATTHEW EVINS, Graduate Student, Miami University, OH. Are you scrambling to keep up with all of your work and gasping for more time to do it all? Are you spinning out of control? Do you have five minutes to spare? Then this is the time-management solution for you and all undergraduate and graduate students, especially freshman. The five-minute to-do list alone will increase free time by 20% or more. There are 45 other effective techniques, adapted from best practices in business and industry, which can easily be incorporated into your daily routine to streamline studying, test preparation, and personal appointments. Imagine the feeling of being ahead, relaxed, and in control with time to squander; instead of being behind, unprepared, and playing catch-up all of the time with the accompanying stress, tension, and frustration.
