Balanced and Useful August 21, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This was a complete and very readable guidebook! It contained lots of good tips - some known and others less obvious - which made adjustment to college that much easier for my daughter. It is a much better and more useful book than many of the others out there.
The Best December 1, 2005 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
Of all the college survival books I have read this is the best! It is the most in-depth, and it is a must-have for any incoming college freshman. It contains many helpful chapters like how to take a test, how to take good notes, how to study well, the professor hierarchy, getting along with your roomie, and time management skills. It was my favorite, and it might become yours as well.
Darn good reading August 21, 2001 11 out of 12 found this review helpful
Yes indeed, this book is great for that incoming freshman who has no clue of what to do. It has good insight on college life and deals with subjects like sex and alcohol. The book is a great gift for that student who is going away to college. I couldn't put it down.
I hope this helps Peace:o>
A Great Guide October 12, 1999 11 out of 19 found this review helpful
Plenty of useful tips for any college student. If you like this book, you'll love "Major in Success", by Patrick Combs. It will change your college experience.
New name, same great book March 16, 1999 10 out of 18 found this review helpful
I had searched for some time to find College 101 (the university primer which guided me through my liberal arts career in the mid-1980s), but no one seemed to carry it anymore, or so I thought. I was excited to see that Worthington and Farrar are back (they never went away) with the Ultimate College Survival Guide--a renamed, high-speed edition of the unique genre Professor Farrar mastered (invented?) almost two decades ago. Worthington has turned out another slick edition. I believe this is the same gal who teamed with Dr. Pat Walsh (Johns Hopkins Hospital), making his technical expertese discernible to the masses in their best-selling book on the prostate. As she did there, Worthington has managed to condense the four year college experience into a cogent and humourous read--an improbable twofer. What was that guy from New York reading? Maybe he ought to be "report" carded.
