Becoming a more effective learner and boosting your productivity will help you earn better grades - but it'll also cut down on your study time. This is a short, meaty book that will guide you through ten steps to achieving those goals:

• Pay better attention in class
• Take more effective notes
• Get more out of your textbooks
• Plan like a general
• Build a better study environment
• Fight entropy and stay organized
• Defeat Procrastination
• Study smarter
• Write better papers
• Make group projects suck less

Whether you're in college or high school, this book will probably help you. But not if you're a raccoon. I want to be very clear about that; if you're a raccoon, please buy a different book. This one will do absolutely nothing for you. How did you even learn to read, anyway?
