I recently looked back to some of my textbooks from college. My first year textbooks were covered with highlighting ink. Just about every word in every chapter was highlighted! Why bother? Now, if you’re saying to yourself “I’ve always used a highlighter and I’ve always done really well on test,” good for you! But why are you wasting your time on this study techniques presentation if you’re already doing really well? For those of you who aren’t doing really well, throw the highlighter away NOW.
