Sierra's Study Day

Hey, my name is Sierra and I’m 16 (almost 17). I have earned 27 credits through CollegePlus! which makes me a college Freshman.

Because I’m still in high school, my typical study day tends to be quite…loaded; but I enjoy it! I usually start my study day with a bit of high school work and then move into college studying and back into high school. That way, I’m not constantly having the same routine. When I study for a CLEP test, I always have two resources for sure: the LearningNetwork and REA guides. Sometimes, I use more and other times, that is all I have.

Right now, for the test I’m studying for, I have a study buddy who is also in CP!. I have found this extremely helpful as we both take practice tests, we can go over them together. It’s also nice to keep each other accountable.

When I study, I always have a music playlist going, a stack of index cards and Sharpies next to me, and of course, my study resource. To make sure I get everything done in a day, I have a “to do” checklist. Lists are always useful to me – and I make them for the tiniest things. I hope I’m not the only one.
