答案 Attaining Success in College Succeeding in college is not only important to getting for education, but also crucial in this day and age to success in the work place. To me, the three most important things for attaining a successful college experience are having smart classroom conduct, taking advantage of campus resources, and making college the first priority. To begin with, attaining success in college involves smart classroom conduct consisting of regular class attendance and active class participation. Attending class regularly, the students can have access to all the information provided by the professors who always give clues to concepts that will be tested on later. In addition, the students need to get fully involved in class activities. Regular interaction with the professors not only gives them a chance to clear any questions they may have, but also gives the professors a chance to see how well they learn. And learning with their peers can be fun, too. Therefore, smart class conduct is crucial to achieving success in college. Making good use of campus resources is also of great importance to college success. The school library has many resources for the growth of the students’ mind. With computers and copy-machines for individual use, computer labs and writing labs are there not just for learning purposes but also for actual help with writing papers. The "office hours" will help the students build a close relationship with their professors and give them access to the professors mind. To from the professors the students can acquire possible extra information that may put them ahead of their study. All these resources are free, since they are funded by student tuitions. So taking good advantage of the resources can make the students’ education more attainable. Finally, any student who wants to assure success must establish school as the top priority. Personally I have watched some students slowly loosen up; I have seen a pattern of partying and a lack of motivation. Many of the freshmen have no idea why they are in college, and their "eyes" often tell it all. This world is so rich in distractions that it is hard to keep a strong focus, especially if one is just starting his or her academic career. It is said that the first semester is often the most "unsuccessful" one. This certainly rings true for me. I made mistakes in this regard and eventually learned that, to achieve success, school must always be placed above other things. In my college experience, I have observed and learned how to achieve success. I wish someone had told me earlier the importance of having that smart classroom conduct, of fully utilizing the school resources, and of making college my top priority. Then, my college beginnings would not have been so rocky and tough.
