Study Habits
- Study every day (perhaps
take one day off)
- Study the glossary of symbols and definitions to get to know the "language".
- Do lots of problems.
- In addition to the assigned problems, do problems that are not assigned.
- Make up your own similar problems and try to solve them.
- Look at problems early so your subconscious has plenty of time to
play with them.
- Review daily (all the way from the beginning).
- Read ahead before each lecture.
- Don't expect immediate success. Anything worthwhile takes time and
effort.
