From an article on Time.com:
College admission letters go out this month, and most
recipients (and their parents) will place great importance on which
universities said yes and which said no. A growing body of evidence, however,
suggests that the most significant thing about college is not where you
go, but what you do once you get there. Historian and educator Ken Bain
has written a book on this subject, What the Best College Students Do, that draws a roadmap for how students can
get the most out of college, no matter where they go."
Wherever you decide to go to college, it’s probably worth
reading this book before you get there.
And even if you’re not yet a senior, why not start now? Give the book a read over the weekend and
think about how you can start implementing the practices while still in high
school.
