Surviving Exam Period
Exam period
is coming, and this is a great opportunity to boost the last GPA that graduate
schools and employers will see!
Therefore, you should start preparing now. First, make a list of all your remaining
assignments and exams. Second, break
each task into manageable steps. Third,
estimate how many hours it will take you to accomplish each step for each item
on your list. Fourth, put the items on a
calendar with your time estimates written next to them. Now you know how many hours of work are needed
on the days leading up to each due date, so you can plan accordingly. For more specific study skills, please visit Counseling
Services’ self-help page.
Dear
Seniors,
The annual Winter Break Making Connections events are coming up in early January! Hosted by Trinity Alumni Chapters all over the country, these events are special opportunities for students and alumni to come together, network, and build lasting, professional relationships. As you move ever closer to graduation, networking becomes more and more important. Relationships with alumni can prove to be invaluable when you transition from college to career. So, mark your calendars! You can find more information about these events and R.S.V.P. in TigerJobs. Finally, we’d like to remind you that our office will remain open December 1 – 21, so feel free to call for an appointment with a career advisor (we also meet with students via Skype!) at 210-999-8321. We’ll be closed December 24 – January 1. We wish you the best of luck on your final exams and congratulate those who are graduating this month! more>>
