Read the assigned reading before the lectures. Read
carefully, don't just skim it.
Take notes while you read. Write down questions for your TA or
lecturer.
Never attempt HW's before reading the chapter.
Get into a study group. (Groups of 2 or 3 are generally the optimal
size)
Go to office hours!
Start your CAPA assignments early. If you start the night before
they're due, you are surely dead.
Don't get behind. It's very hard to catch up in this course.
Reading the text and lecture notes, attending lectures, and doing the
HW is not enough You have to understand the material!
Here's a test of "understanding": If you can explain the material in
words to someone else, without refering to the text, you probably
understand.
